OP, I lived in HK for 4 years and I can attest to that. You can get a very nice tailor made suit for $400 - 500. If you get more suits, you can negotiate a pretty good discount.

D1 - sounds like the most adventurous option haha I've heard good things about their tailors, do you have one from HK?

brooks brother or go to JFK and fly to hongkong

Sebastian Gray and Mohan Custom. Sebastian is marginally more expensive and I didn’t like their suit as much; buttons etc came off in few months, some threads came loose

Black Lapel isn’t bespoke

I completed my interview loop at Google on August 12, 2022.

I was informed on September 8th that the hiring committee is scheduled the next day (September 9th) and that I can expect a final feedback latest by September 12th. I wasn’t informed of the results and reached out, but the recruiter isn’t replying to my emails. Does this mean I was rejected?
