Bangkok has had – for many decades – a reputation as a leading destination for custom suits. The combination of skilled craftsmanship from reputable tailors, a wide range of fabric and pricing options makes it a popular choice for those seeking a well-tailored suit.
In a way, the tailoring industry is quite similar to the hotel or food industry here. There are options that range from very affordable to incredibly luxurious. With that said, price is not necessarily a great indicator of quality. How can you ensure you receive a suit that fits well and meets your style expectations? Here’s a guide on how to get a well-tailored suit in Bangkok and why choosing a reputable tailor like Tailors Bangkok can make all the difference.
1. Start with Research
Before meeting with a tailor, it’s essential to do some research. Not all tailors are created equal, and quality can vary significantly. So can the fabrics on offer from different tailor shops. Look for tailors with a solid reputation. This normally means they’ve been around for a long time, but if they’re up-and-coming then it may be worth trying them out too. Reviews are a great indication of quality – both positive and negative reviews, but it may be worth going beyond the rating and review count and checking out the profiles writing the reviews too.
Tailors Bangkok is increasingly recognized for tailored excellence. We also have a wide range of budget friendly and premium fabrics that you can choose from, catering to different preferences and budgets.
Pro tip: Your own research is probably the best research.
2. Schedule a Consultation with a Reputable Tailor
A well-tailored suit begins with a thorough consultation. At Tailors Bangkok, we take the time to understand your needs, preferences, and the specific occasions for which you need your suit. This helps us work with you on a design and fabric that suits your requirements. During the initial consultation, we’ll go over various styles and details, so that every detail of your suit can be customized to your liking.
We take great care in carefully measuring every client so that their tailored suit may fit them well.
Once your measurements, fabric choices and design requirements have been recorded, we will begin tailoring your suits.
3. The Fitting Process
Once ready, a good tailor will schedule a fitting with you to try on your custom suit. Depending on your timeline, this may be a basted or we may even have a completed suit ready for you to try on. Notes will be made about any required adjustments; and we will then complete the adjustments. Tailors Bangkok recommends at least two fittings so that we can achieve an excellent fit.
4. Final Quality Check and Pickup/Delivery
Before delivering the final product, we conduct a thorough quality check to see that the different details meet your requirements. In some cases, you may be able to pick up your suit from a tailor shop at this step. With Tailors Bangkok, expect your completed suit to be delivered to your home, hotel or office – it’s convenient working with us, isn’t it?
Why Choose Tailors Bangkok?
Choosing the right tailor is the most critical step in getting a well-tailored suit. The tailor you choose for your custom suit also determines what fabric options are available to you, unless they are willing to tailor you a suit with a fabric you bring along with you, which is somewhat unlikely.
We have various fabric options for you to choose from, including blends and woolen fabrics from various mills including from Vitale Barberis Canonico, Reda, etc. Whether you’re after a budget-friendly option or a premium fabric, Tailors Bangkok has something for you.
Our process is designed to deliver a suit that fits well, looks elegant, and meets your unique style requirements. We combine years of experience, skilled craftsmanship, and a dedication to customer satisfaction.
No matter the product or service in question, there is almost always the possibility that something will go wrong. A bug in the software or a flaw in the fabric, things happen or are found. One of the key indicators of a good tailor is that they will take care of you when they make a mistake. If we make a mistake on our end, trust that we will fix it, even if this involves tailoring you a replacement suit and sending it to your home country at our expense. We want you to choose Tailors Bangkok again and again, not just meet with us once for custom clothes.
Tailors Bangkok also operates with no brick-and-mortar tailor shop. We meet you at a location that’s convenient to you, whether that’s at your home, hotel or office. We come to you for your initial consultation and fittings, and your completed clothes are delivered to you as well. There’s no need to make your way to a brick-and-mortar tailor shop at any step of the process. And, by foregoing a tailor shop at a prime location, we’re able to offer our high quality custom tailoring services at very competitive prices – perhaps uniquely, that’s without sacrificing on quality. A custom 2-piece suit starts from just 8,000 THB.
