Cheap doesn't have to mean nasty, which certainly isn't the case with the tailor-made tuxedos from Mr Yu Tailor & Tuxedo Co in Mid-Levels. With more than 45 years of experience in the industry, proprietor John Yu Kwai-pui can run up a sharp dinner suit faster than you can say 'shaken, not stirred'.

Prices start at $1,800, depending on your choice of material and style, for which the veteran tailor will have you kitted out in an elegant made-to-measure jacket, trousers, shirt, bow-tie and cummerbund. Choose from European- or Chinese-manufactured fabrics, single breast, double breast or tails. He'll even rustle up a waistcoat for $380 or a pure wool overcoat for $2,000.

If your pockets don't run that deep, you can hire an outfit for the evening for $450. And if your belle needs an outfit for the ball, Yu has a small collection of silk gowns and wedding dresses for sale from $900. This offer is for a limited period only.

Mr Yu Tailor is at the corner of Caine Road and Elgin Street, Mid-Levels, tel: 2398 7273.
