PeeMarc Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 We know there are 1000's of tailor shops clustered around, mainly in tourist areas, in Bkk. It's stand to reason, out of all of them, there must be a few very good ones. If you wanted to get some nicely made shirts or jacket etc, what tailor would you recommend? Had any experiences?

0 Rob Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Specifically for sewing shirts, I recommend Milan Suit, near Asoke BTS. His work is the best I've seen and he doesn't mind working with fabric brought in from outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 pandorea Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Shirts, jackes from Indian tailer shops on Sukhumvit mostly come from the same factory. Take those tailer shops from Soi 8-15 for exp. They are family and the factory is running by some Chineses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SweetieBabie Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Tried Ricky's opposite Landmark hotel i believe? thought they were good enough for men shirts and suits. They would also ship oversea for you once you have measurement done with them they keep your records. But they sucked at women's tailoring and you can't ask for a knock off latest Dolce Gabbana.

If you wanted to get some nicely made shirts or jacket etc, what tailor would you recommend?
Had any experiences?
