Visit Your Tailor on Day One: How to Plan Your Bangkok Trip Around It

Question answered: “When should I go to the tailor during my trip?”

By Tony Ram, Second-generation owner, Peninsula Bespoke Tailor · Updated

Visit your tailor on the first or second day of your trip. That leaves time for at least one fitting and any adjustments before you fly. On a 3-day stay, go straight from the airport or the next morning. On a week-long stay, you can add a second fitting and more garments.

What's a good plan for my trip length?

5 daysMeasure + chooseFittings on day 2 and 3Collect on day 4
7 daysMeasure + chooseTwo fittings, extra garmentsCollect on day 5-6

Why not leave it to the last day?

Without time for a fitting, the tailor can't correct problems you'll only see when you wear it.

Can you fit around my sightseeing?

Yes. We're open 09:00-21:00 every day and can visit your hotel early or in the evening.
