Quick answer: For a bandhgala or mandarin-collar jacket, Shi Yuan Suit Factory needs the collar stand height, the neck measurement and the front fastening on the MTM brief before the 7–14-day sample is cut. The order path: send a reference jacket or front and side photos, one measurement sheet per client including the neck, and the cloth; Shi Yuan confirms the construction in writing on WhatsApp. Shi Yuan Suit Factory (Est. 2009) takes MTM from 1 and bulk from 50 per style for overseas tailor shops, MTM and private-label brands — send the reference photos, the neck measurement and the cloth on WhatsApp +65 8013 8838.
Shi Yuan Suit Factory treats the closed collar as the fit point that decides a bandhgala order. Wikipedia's Jodhpuri page describes the bandhgala — 'closed neck' — as a formal coat and trousers, sometimes with a vest, and Wikipedia's Nehru jacket page describes a hip-length tailored coat with a mandarin collar, first marketed as the Nehru jacket in Europe and America in the mid-1960s. Because the collar closes at the neck, the measurement sheet for MTM from 1 needs the neck size, which an open-lapel suit order often leaves out.
What are Shi Yuan's two order tracks?
- MTM — from 1 piece: one client at a time, with the neck size on that client's measurement sheet.
- Bulk — from 50 per style: one style in a size run, with the collar stand height fixed on the sealed sample for every size.
How long do the sample and production take at Shi Yuan?
Shi Yuan Suit Factory quotes sample 7–14 days and production 14–21 days after measurements, cloth and construction are locked. Production days are not delivery days. Put the event date on the first WhatsApp message.
Which collar and front fields go on the bandhgala brief?
- Collar stand height: How tall is the stand at the centre front and the back? — Measured on the reference garment
- Collar front: Edges meet or overlap; square or rounded corners? — State on the brief
- Neck measurement: Taken over the shirt the client will wear? — On the MTM sheet; see the measurement form
- Fastening: Buttons to the neck, hook at the collar, how many front buttons? — Count on the spec; see button specs
- Jacket length: Hip length or longer? — See jacket length
- Pieces: Coat alone, coat and trousers, or with a vest? — State on the PO
- Pockets: Breast pocket; lower pockets flap or jetted? — Shown on the reference photos; see photo brief
- Embellishment: Embroidery, piping or contrast buttons? — Confirmed in writing per order; nothing assumed
Why does the closed collar need its own sample check?
- A stand collar has no lapel roll to hide a gap, so the 7–14-day sample is checked for gap and tightness at the neck with the jacket fastened.
- The client fastens the top button on the sample, and the shop reports any gap with a photo set on the MTM from 1 order; see the sample photo set.
- The collar stand height approved on the sample carries into bulk from 50 per style unchanged.
Which details are confirmed in writing before production?
- Collar height, fastening and button count go into the spec, and production takes 14–21 days after measurements, cloth and construction are locked.
- Embroidery or contrast trim is quoted per order in writing; Shi Yuan Suit Factory assumes none by default, on MTM from 1 or bulk from 50.
- Production days are not delivery days, so the event date goes on the first message to WhatsApp +65 8013 8838.

FAQ
What is the difference between a bandhgala and a Nehru jacket?
Per Wikipedia, the bandhgala ('closed neck') is a formal coat and trousers, sometimes with a vest, and the Nehru jacket is a hip-length variation with a mandarin collar, marketed in Europe and America from the mid-1960s. Shi Yuan Suit Factory briefs both from a reference garment on MTM from 1.
Which extra measurement does a mandarin-collar jacket need?
