The 17 Best Tailors in Bangkok for Custom-Made Suits and Dresses 2025

In a world of fast fashion, there is a unique and profound satisfaction that comes from wearing a garment made specifically for you. The perfect fit, the choice of fabric, the subtle details—it’s a level of quality and personal expression that off-the-rack clothing simply cannot match. Bangkok has long been a global capital for this craft, famous for its skilled artisans who can create stunning bespoke clothing at a fraction of the price you’d pay in London or New York.

However, the sheer number of shops can be overwhelming, and not all Bangkok tailors are created equal. Finding a reputable, high-quality tailor is the key to a successful experience. To help you navigate this world of fabrics and measurements, we have created the definitive guide to the city’s best. Whether you’re looking for a powerful business suit, an elegant custom dress, or a set of perfectly fitted shirts, your search for the perfect tailor ends here.

Why Trust This Guide?

As a long-time resident and founder of Bangkok Days, a significant part of my professional life involves looking sharp. I’ve had numerous suits, shirts, and dresses made in this city over the years, for myself and on behalf of clients. I’ve experienced the entire process, from the initial consultation and fabric selection to the multiple fittings and the final, satisfying result. I’ve learned to spot true craftsmanship and have built relationships with tailors I trust implicitly. This guide is built on that personal journey, sharing the names that I, and the discerning long-term expat community, rely on for impeccable quality.

Understanding the Bespoke Process in Bangkok

Getting custom clothing made is a process. Here’s what to expect:

• Consultation: You’ll discuss the style, fabric, and details with the tailor. Bring photos for inspiration!
• Measurements: A detailed set of measurements will be taken.
• First Fitting: You’ll try on a partially completed garment (a “basted” fitting). This is the most crucial stage for making adjustments to the structure and fit.
• Second/Third Fitting: Further adjustments are made to ensure a perfect fit.
• Completion: Your finished garment is ready for collection, typically within 1-2 weeks from the first fitting.
