One of the first questions people ask me about
tailor made clothes in Vietnam and especially in Hoi An, is if it is
worth to have it done.
Well, I can only speak from my own experience, and the answer is yes! I’m
very happy with what I have ordered and with service.
We chose Yaly Couture-Tran Phu branch, and We
couldn’t be happier.
After some research on TripAdvisor, and visiting
a few Tailors, we decided for Yaly Couture – Tran Phu branch. First because we
were impresses by their welcome, and by their already made clothes, second, the
other places we visited, didn’t sound confident enough or were far
more expense and third, not many shops had their in house Tailors as Yaly´s
does.
Talking about prices, It might not be cheap as you expect specially
if you chose a good Tailor, or if you want an elaborated model, even
though, I thought $100 for each silk skirt and blouse suit, that I have
ordered, was a very good price, especially because in Europe I would pay
more than £350.
One aspect you need to take in consideration, if you
are planning to get a new wardrobe, is that they need at least 24h to make your
clothes, and you will need at least one fitting.
Also I suggest you bring along some photos of
what you would like to order, and you can, even take fabrics with you, to
make sure you get exactly what you want.
