Custom tailored shirt

[sooraw]

Im looking to have a nice long sleeve shirt made for me at a taylor but I have no experience with it so im asking for some advice.
By nice i doesnt mean office shirt or anything, just a cool classy one :)

What fabric should I get? (price doesnt really matter just want the nicest)
What are the best way to get what I want, should I bring pictures or whats the best way? :)

How do I find a good taylor in Manila and how much do they charge?

Anything else I should think of? :)

I had one custom shirt done my mytailor.com, which is a HK operation. I'm pretty happy with the $65 shirt despite my choosing the wrong fabric. I'm sure my future shirts with them will be even better. Their better fabrics cost around $90-$250 per shirt with $110-$160 being the sweet spot for Thomas Mason s160 fabrics.

If you want to deal with your shirtmakers in person, you may want to try Ascot Chang. They have a local shop (http://ascotchang.com/en/contact_us.jsp). I've no experience with them yet.

I have to wonder why you feel you need a made-to-measure shirt though. It's undoubtedly cheaper and less hassle to get a shirt that fits well from M&S and bring it to a decent tailor to have it trimmed and tailored to your exact fit.

I just feel like it would be a fun to try, to see what the result will be like
