How much to tailor (create from scratch though) a shirt?

I'd like to get a few blouses made that copy these from a brand called Realisation Par as the real ones are a bit too much for me. How much would I be looking at? Obviously the reason I would want to get them made would be so they're cheaper!

I've had a number of high end shirts tailored in Vietnam using Egyptian cotton, high end fabrics - $40 a shirt. Just a comparison price for you. I don't know how much it would cost at home

As you don't have a pattern, the seamstress would have to design one, especially to fit you, make a mock-up, order the fabric, cut, sew, fit, finish and all for under $200. It may be worth it if you plan to have several made at the same time. Also, you would be asking someone to pirate an existing design.

Thanks all. I've looked everywhere for a similar shirt, ASOS have one but not really the same.
