    No surprise here. The cost of all services have risen over the last few decades and tailoring price rising should not be any different. I think it is great that people can actually buy a suit and get it tailored at the same time. I know many men that have bought suits and was happy they did not have to bring them back home first. They were able to get them tailored to fit so they could wear them while in Hong Kong on business.
