Great Customer Service in Hoian

Image
My fiance and I got the following items made: - grooms suit - 2 business suits - several pocket squares - 3 groomsmen suits - a dress for wedding tea ceremony Overall, the customer service was excellent and we were happy with the experience. We would both recommend : - come in with a really clear and specific understanding of what you want, including photographs, patterns, and an idea of the material that you want. - speak up if you are unhappy or want any changes - they are very happy to accommodate (within reason), but save yourself any disappointment by making this clear early on - set aside enough time for several days of fittings - check over clothes prior to collection (one of our groomsmen's pants were missing its buttons - they were horrified when we pointed it out and quickly fixed it) We are both very thankful to Khanh , Phuong and Van  for their patience. They are all very knowledgeable and highly experienced and therefore able to provide advic...

Tips To Make The Most Of Your Hoi An Tailor Experience with A Dong Silk

Tips To Make The Most Of Your Hoi An Tailor Experience with A Dong Silk : Prepare ahead, and have an idea of what you would like to get made while in Hoi An . We have stacks of magazines and catalogues and Ipad as well, but if you want something specific it is good to come prepared. Shop around. Not all the tailors are able to produce the same quality and the same prices. Have a look at the quality, there are so many tailors in Hoi An , that you should be able to find one with both the ability and the material. You should find it by yourself. Appointment Booking: Provides you to arrange your shopping schedule and complimentary service offers. Request several fittings. You are paying for the garment to be tailoring to you, so don’t feel shy to ask for alternations before the product is finished . The possibilities are endless! Post things home! The post office is quite used to tourists coming in with large boxes of garments and sending them back to their homes....

Best tailors in Hoian: Perfect suits - The tailors had to be inventive and responsive

Image
Last week I arrived for a fitting on a Saturday night ... and I had my suits, with many fine-grained alterations (done on Sunday afternoon after the fitting), by Sunday night . My sales assistant, Thoa , was terrific-- though I generally knew what I wanted (more or less), she was extremely helpful with the details, and full of great suggestions. I was treated as if I were the only customer in the world (though it is quite a busy shop ). Most important, my suits suit me, and I am hard to fit, having large muscular thighs that befuddle most clothes manufacturers and that are certainly not common among Vietnamese men. So the tailors here had to be inventive and responsive-- and they were . Highly recommended!

Explore A Dong Silk - Best tailors in Hoian: Professional service and meticulous tailoring

Image
Prior to my trip, I researched online for reputable and quality tailors in Hoi An for business suits, dresses and shirts.                            A Dong was at the top of my list given their strong reviews and I can now say that A Dong lived up to their reputation. I was welcomed into the store by the lovely Van . Van was excellent, she has a very good eye for detail and was extremely patient as we worked through fabric selection ( there are lots to choose from! ) I had 3 fittings in total including some minor styling alterations so that everything looked and fit perfectly. Upon picking up, everything was beautifully wrapped and packaged for the flight home. It is true that you will pay more here however, like with most things, you get what you pay for. Quality and selection of fabrics, attentive service and a detailed finish. I highly recommend Van and A Dong Silk Tailors . Thank you! Visited June...

Explore A Dong Silk - Best tailors in Hoian: Excellent quality for a commensurate price

Choosing a tailor shop in Hoi An is hard, as anyone who's come here knows. We toured four different shops, all of which had excellent TripAdvisor ratings , getting quotes from each of them, until we settled on A Dong and Mr. Xe's, the former for the quality and the latter for the affordability. The price differential was substantial; the highest quality suit at A Dong was 250 and came with only one pair of pants, compared to 140 at Mr. Xe's, which came with two pairs of pants, and shirts were 45 at A Dong compared with 20 at Mr. Xe's. After the whole process was complete, however, the reason for the higher prices is clear; the suit I got at A Dong is the best-looking suit I've ever owned, and they nailed the stylishness on the first go. It also fits absolutely perfectly. My partner also had shirts and a blazer made for her and she looks fantastic in them. A Dong also had better quality fabrics than the other shops we visited , but they cost more as a resu...

Explore A Dong Silk - Expensive but so worth it

So expect to pay western prices (for similar off the shelf items) but appreciate that the garments will be spectacular and custom made and you get a story out of it. Nhung served me and I was excellent in helping me pick out materials and making suggestions . I could not be happier with their customer service and my final items. If you want quality this is the place.

Explore A Dong Silk - A very good service and a professional product

This is one of the larger and more classy of the many tailors in Hoi An. There is plenty of seating for family members to wait while you are being measured etc. Big selection of fabric and lots of staff so no waiting around . Good levels of English spoken and easy to discuss what you want with staff. I had 3 shirts made and my daughter had two dresses and various other items as well. Attention to detail is good; lots of discussion of button types, button hole edging colour, collar stiffness etc. All done in 36 hours and nicely packed. A very good service and a professional product .

Best tailor in Hoi An: Super service, wonderful materials and absolutely lovely ladies who work there

Image
If you will ever visit Hoi An in central Vietnam , the best you can do is visiting a tailor and ask them for a customized suit. When I have been in this town a few weeks ago I asked a lot of people which tailor I should choose to produce such a suit for myself as there really exist a looot of different ones. And thank God I asked the right people who recommended me a shop called " A DONG SILK ". That was the best decision I could make. They simply offer the biggest variety of materials as well as the best quality I have seen after comparing a few different tailors, it just takes one to two days until the suit is being finished and the staff is friendly and competent . My recommendation: Ask for Hong who is working at A Dong Silk . She really knows what she is doing, advices you in the best way and also has a good taste. If I will ever go to Hoi An again I will definitely come back to A Dong Silk and ask them for not just one more suit. I really regret that I di...

Explore A Dong Silk - Best tailors in Hoian: “Love my dress”

I love the dress I had made here. A lovely girl named My Phuong helped me and really listened to what I wanted and gave me a lot of advice. She understood what I was looking for and when I went back the next day for the fitting they really listened to my remarks and made the proper adjustments. My dress was finished in just one day. I would really recommend this place!!
