There are a few manufacturers that are recommended. Hopefully you have access to this thread:

Also I am hoping these guys you recommend can use a tape measure as well as my tailor
It might be worth having a read of this as well:

Buying a TK is not something you want to jump into quickly and without doing lots of reading. I read threads for a week solid before even joining these forums! I don't believe you will find a supplier who will make a TK "to order" the way you would order a suit or shirt. There are so many components to a TK that you really need to build it around the person who is going to wear it. It might sound like a lot of work, and it is, but it is worth the sense of pride and satisfaction of wearing something that you know you have created yourself.
If you are set on a TK, then it is also worthwhile reading through the First Imperial Stormtrooper Detachment forums (home to the TK detachment)
