Custom Tuxedos and Black Tie in Bangkok
Question answered: “Can I get a tuxedo made in Bangkok?”
By Tony Ram, Second-generation owner, Peninsula Bespoke Tailor · Updated
Yes, you can get a tuxedo made to measure in Bangkok. Choose black or midnight navy wool, with a peak or shawl lapel faced in silk satin or grosgrain, and trousers with a matching side braid. It usually takes about as long as a suit, 2-3 days with a fitting. We make every tuxedo to measure; we don't rent.
Which lapel should I choose?
| Lapel | Look | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Peak | Sharp, formal | Most builds, classic black tie |
| Shawl | Rounded, smooth | Evening glamour, slimmer builds |
| Notch | Business-like | Less traditional for black tie |
What goes with a tuxedo?
- White dress shirt with a turndown collar and French cuffs
- Black silk bow tie
- Cummerbund or low-cut waistcoat
- Black patent or polished oxford shoes
How long does it take?
Usually 2-3 days with a fitting. For weddings and galas, order a week or more ahead if you can.
