My husband needs to have a suit made and whilst I know there are many that do this service I would appreciate anybody who is able to give me their personal recommendations as to who to use and an idea of costs.

Many thanks in advance.

I had a suit made by Exotic Kumas in Karaoğlanoğlu which I was happy with, I have seen posts by others who were not so happy!

Unfortunately, there are very few places here that are 100% consistent...

...and I can't remember the cost

My husband had one made by Sulieman at Green Man tailors behind the Pia Bella. He was very pleased with it and has also had trousers made there.
The tailor in Ozankoy is also very good.

Righto, thanks for that!

I'll definitely consider it the next time that I need a new suit - although they'd need to take a knife and hack around 60 lbs off me to make me look like that!

Do you happen to remember the name / location of the place?

Lol....I cant find a pic of my other half....he is short and fat....same suit... they made it look good on him as well. Easy to find....hundreds of suits inside the shop.
Nyat...something like that. Go into the walled city and park up as soon as you get in. Walk down towards the main square its virtually around the corner from the carpark....you will see the shop on your right...its opposite a tatty coffee shop. Its only a small looking shop from the outside...but you walk into a tardis...you will see his name on the window canopy.

Thanks, that sounds straightforward - well, as straightforward as anything ever is here

If I get a suit, I'll post a picture!

For those that dare go south. There is a tailor on Ay Nick army camp - outside the secure area - beside the road about opposite the fire station. (He gets plenty of business from the Brits there). The shop is about half a mile from the border control.
