    Savile Row tailor

    Posted by jesse2 11 April 2008

    I have been slowly upgrading my wardrobe. I have proceeded cautiously because I know that 90% of the tailors here are ripoffs and most people bought a suit based on the advice of the tout sitting outside the shop or from a Thai airways in-flight magazine ad.

    Thankfully, there is an antidote to the Bangkok ripoff tourist tailor. I was recommended this place by an AAAC member. It's far away from the Sukhumvit Road tailors and really a world apart. I imagine this guy could hold his own against the best of the UK or Italy.

    This is the tailor shop that the highest echelons of Thai society use.

    I had a midnight blue tuxedo made there and it turned out beautifully. I probably broke some rules with the burgundy lining but I couldn't resist
    the color when I was given the lining samples.

    I had an initial fabric selection and then three fittings as the garments progressed. His fabric selections are limited but are of the highest quality.

    A suit from July Tailor will cost 4000 - 12000 baht.

    I have always seen another Farang (foreigner) in there. His work is in the upper echelons and his prices are much more reasonable than even the best tourist tailors. That being said, they are still lower than a good canvassed off-the-rack suit in the USA.
