The stiffener in the collar seems to be just card, and is already bubbling. Basically the shirts are fine for work, but not suitable for meetings! So either specify your requirements even further, or resign yourself to dodgy shirts. - <B>The suit:</B> Fits great, but again the material now looks a little cheap on return and creases easily. Pick the material and lining carefully, suggesting a few beers first is probably a bad idea. - <B>The jacket & dress:</B> Lynette isn't overly enamoured with any of these and feels that your tastes change (i.e. relax) significantly while travelling. Now she is back... they might not see the light of day! Basically, even though bits are cheap, don't let it tempt you in to dropping your standards otherwise you might not have bothered buying it in the first place! Cheers! :) Hi all, I’ve been meaning to update this since we got back since the clothes we’ve bought in Hoi An have had a little more ‘use’.
