I am flying to Thailand for a family holiday. Also I am planning to buy a taylored suit or two in Bangkok. What should I be looking out for? Does anybody have experience?
>>18793882Do you mean bespoke tailoring or alterations tailoring? Because those are very different. The most important aspect is proper fit. The jacket should fit your shoulders properly, should end at your thumb knuckle with your arm down, the gorge positioned where your tie knot its, and the waist button about 1/2 inch below your waist. The trousers should rise to your waist, have a slight break, and the hem about 2/3 the size of your shoe. Everything else is up to you fabric, color, pattern, pockets, etc. Just make sure it fits you properly and the tailor knows what they're doing so you don't end up looking like the goofball in the image you posted.
>>18793882Isn’t vietnamese tailoring better valued? Thailand got enshittified, beware those 24 hour tailors, it’s not bespoke, usually fused and they take a off the rack piece and alter it. I’d rather buy a nice second hand blazer, shirt, or trousers, maybe bring it there to be altered
