    I want to get a tailormade suit, can anyone recommend a good gentlemens' outfitters in Dublin or will I have to go to London?

    Louis Copeland and T.M. Lewin spring to mind straight away, however I have never used either.

    Are you talking about getting a bespoke suit or just having it tailored to fit you better? The former can be very expensive!

    I'm sure Old Goat will give you a more detailed response once he sees this.

    I have some suits I've like to get adjusted since I lost weight - any recommendations?

    Bespoke. I buy most of my suits (off the rack) in Louis Copeland as it is. I don't think they do bespoke suits as such but I could be wrong.

    TBH I can't really help here. I don't have an Irish tailor. I get a few pieces altered but my bespoke comes from abroad, London or Hong Kong usually though I have had bits & pieces from other places.
    A friend uses a tailor up on Camden Street. I'll try and get you better info for that.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    I have mine altered in he Alteration Centre on South Anne's Street.

    Louis Copeland does bespoke. Hong Kong or Bangkok would be cheaper.

    As far as I know, Louis Copeland does Made to Measure but not bespoke. At least it was this way when I bought my MTM there last year.
    John Condon in the Copeland's on Capel Street is the man to see.
