I live in England and am moving to Singapore later this year. I am thinking of buying a white wool and cotton blazer, which is for summers in England but I fear it might be too hot for Singapore. Can anyone there advise me? Would it be okay in the evenings?

email4vikram - I like dressing up and want to be able to wear a jacket or suit of some sort there, if possible. Caretaker - I do plan on having a white suit made there, but am not sure if I could find fabric like this blazer has, as it's very English.

you would seriously get heatstroke if u wear a wool blazer in Singapore.
there are many customised tailors in Singapore, located in town area such as Tanglin Shopping Centre, which is very popular among the Westerners due to its array of services available there. There are tailors, Chinese ornament shops and good medical doctors there.
You can also buy good-looking clothes in town. Although the price would be rather steep, however, it would be 1/3 the price if u convert back to pounds!!

Singapore has a warm and humid climate throughout the year with a daily average temperature range above 20°C (68°F), even at night, and usually climbing to 30°C (86°F) during the day. Humidity is high, hovering around the 75% mark.Rainstorms occur on about 40% of all days in Singapore and is wettest from November to January and at its driest from May to July.And due to Singapore's proximity to the equator, light and summer clothing made from natural fabrics like cotton is best for everyday wear with the ample sunshine

hi. the temperature in Singapore ranges between 24 degrees to 32 degrees, sometimes it may be higher. The humidity in Singapore is rather high. It may be abit cooler in the evening/night. Short sleeves would be advisable. Wool and cotton blazer might be too warm.

Considering people fly from the UK to Singapore to tailor clothes, I should think you not worry about the wardrobe. You wouldn't take coals to newcastle now would ya?
Ya might however bring you best kettle because the one you find here might not be the same quality.
Another consideration you may have is your motor car. They're bothersome expensive in Singapore you know. A Mini might cost you, 37,000 quid now the low COE has brought the prices down.
