Bespoke Tailoring in Bangkok: Pricing

What garments cost, what is included, and how to pay.

How much does a bespoke suit cost in Bangkok?
At Om Fashion, bespoke suits start at 6,000 THB, tuxedos at 7,500 THB, and overcoats at 9,000 THB. The final price depends on the cloth. Every starting price is published on our pricing page.
How much are custom shirts and trousers?
Custom shirts start at 1,500 THB, tuxedo shirts at 2,000 THB, and trousers at 2,200 THB. Many clients order several shirts at one fitting since the measurements are taken only once.
How much does women’s tailoring cost?
Ladies suits start at 6,500 THB, dresses at 5,000 THB, and blouses at 1,800 THB, cut on a dedicated women’s pattern in the same fabric range as our men’s work.
Are alterations included in the price?
Yes. Any alterations needed during the fitting process are carried out at no extra charge, because achieving the fit is part of bespoke tailoring rather than an add-on service. Alterations requested long after delivery, for example after a change in body size, are quoted separately and kept modest for returning clients.
Are there any hidden charges?
No. Measuring, the style consultation, fittings, alterations to your new garment, hotel pickup, and in-room fittings are all included. You are quoted a total before any cloth is cut, and it does not change afterwards.
How can I pay, and do you ship internationally?
We accept cash, major credit and debit cards, PromptPay, and bank transfer at the shop in Bang Rak, and can arrange remote payment for repeat orders placed from overseas. Finished garments ship internationally at cost if you leave Bangkok before they are complete.

Ordering and Timing

Appointments, consultations, fittings, turnaround, and the bespoke process.

How long does bespoke tailoring in Bangkok take?
Most garments are ready in 3 to 5 days across one or two fittings. Larger orders and heavily hand-finished pieces need longer, and we tell you at the consultation rather than promise a date we cannot meet.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. The style consultation is free and carries no obligation to order. We talk through what the garment is for, how you want it to sit, and which cloths suit both the occasion and the climate, then quote a total before anything is cut.
How many fittings will I need?
Usually one or two. The first confirms balance and shoulder line, the second refines the waist, sleeve, and length. Additional fittings are included at no extra cost if the fit needs more work.
What design details can I choose?
Lapel shape and width, single or double breasted, vents, pockets, cuff and collar styles, lining colour, buttons, and embroidered monograms are all yours to choose. If you are unsure, we advise on what will flatter your build and suit the occasion rather than simply taking the order.
What is the difference between bespoke and made to measure?
Bespoke drafts a new pattern for your body from scratch. Made to measure adjusts an existing block. Bespoke handles unusual posture and proportion far better; made to measure is quicker and cheaper. We offer both and advise honestly.
Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins are welcome during opening hours, but booking ahead means we can set aside a proper hour for measuring and cloth selection. Message us on WhatsApp or use our appointment page to arrange a time.
Can you copy a garment I already own?
Yes. Bring a piece that fits you well and we can pattern from it, either reproducing it in new cloth or using it as a starting point and refining the fit.

Express Tailoring and Tight Deadlines

For travelers with two or three days in Bangkok.

Can you make a suit in 12 to 24 hours in Bangkok?
In many cases yes. Om Fashion offers an express tailoring service of roughly 12 to 24 hours depending on the garment, whether your chosen cloth is in stock, and the current workshop schedule. Express work is confirmed case by case rather than promised in advance, so message us with your travel dates and we will tell you honestly what is achievable before you commit. Full details are on our express tailoring page.
Does express tailoring cost more?
Sometimes. A rush order may carry a surcharge where it means moving other work or paying the workshop for evening hours. Any surcharge is quoted with your total before you commit, so there is never a surprise on collection.
Is the quality lower on an express order?
The cutting and fitting standards do not change. What changes is the range of finishing available, since certain hand-finished details simply take the time they take. If a garment cannot be made properly inside your window, we say so and suggest an alternative rather than delivering rushed work.
What should I do to make an express order work?
Message us before you arrive with your dates, choose from cloth we hold in stock, come for your first measurement as early in your trip as possible, and stay reachable for one fitting. We can collect you from your hotel and fit you in your room to save you a journey.

Fabrics

Cloth choices, Thai silk, and what suits the Bangkok climate.

What fabrics do you use for bespoke tailoring in Bangkok?
Tropical-weight wools between 240 and 280 grams, high-twist fresco, linen, cotton, and genuine Thai silk, all chosen to work in Bangkok humidity. Fine imported cloths are quoted individually.
Do you offer genuine Thai silk?
Yes. Genuine Thai silk is a house specialty, used for suits, jackets, shirts, dresses, ties, scarves, and linings. It is a signature Bangkok cloth few tailors handle confidently.
What suit weight is best for Thailand’s climate?
Between 240 and 280 grams for year-round wear. Lighter than 220 grams can look flimsy, while heavier than 300 grams is uncomfortable outdoors in the heat.
Will you recommend a fabric for me?
Yes, and this is where most of the value of the consultation sits. We ask where the garment will be worn, in what climate, and how often, then narrow hundreds of cloths down to a handful that will actually work. A suit for Bangkok board meetings, a linen jacket for a beach wedding, and a wool suit for European winters are three very different recommendations.
Can I see your fabrics before I visit Bangkok?
Yes. We can send a digital fabric catalog by WhatsApp or email before you arrive, so you can shortlist wools, linens, cottons, and Thai silks in advance and spend your fitting time on cut and detail rather than browsing. You can also view the range on our fabrics page.

Shoes, Leather Goods, and Accessories

What Om Fashion makes beyond suits and shirts.

Does Om Fashion make bespoke shoes in Bangkok?
Yes. We make bespoke dress shoes including oxfords, derbies, and monk straps, alongside casual shoes and loafers, built to your foot measurements rather than to a standard size chart. See our bespoke shoes page for the full range.
Can I get a belt to match my shoes?
Yes, and it is one of the most popular additions to a shoe order. Belts are cut from the same hide as your shoes wherever possible, so the leather, colour, and finish match properly instead of almost matching.
Do you make wallets and handbags?
Yes. We make men’s leather wallets and ladies’ handbags to order, in your choice of leather, colour, and internal layout, with monogramming available. See our custom leather goods page. These are made in the same workshop that produces our belts and shoes.
Do you make silk ties, scarves, and cufflinks?
Yes. Genuine Thai silk ties, scarves, and pocket squares can be made in the same cloth as your suit lining or as standalone pieces, and we supply cufflinks to finish a formal outfit. These are popular as gifts and as a way to bring a piece of Thai silk home without commissioning a full garment.
Can you make silk pajamas or a kimono?
Yes. Custom Thai silk pajamas, robes, and kimonos are made to your measurements for both men and women, in a wide range of silk colours and weights. They travel well and are among our most requested gift pieces. See our silk pajamas and kimonos page.
Do you make jeans and polo shirts?
Yes. Bespoke jeans are cut to your measurements in denim of your choosing, and custom polo shirts are available individually or as part of a corporate order with embroidered logos. Both are a good way to solve a fit problem that off-the-rack clothing has never fixed for you. See our bespoke jeans and polo shirts page.

Weddings and Corporate Orders

Dressing a wedding party or an entire team.

Do you offer wedding packages for the groom and groomsmen?
Yes. We tailor coordinated wedding packages covering the groom, the groomsmen, and the fathers of the bride and groom, with matching linings, buttons, and embroidered monograms across the party. Group fittings can be arranged at your hotel and we plan the schedule backward from the ceremony date. See our wedding and tuxedo tailoring page.
How far in advance should a wedding party book?
The earlier the better, and we would rather hear from you months ahead than days ahead. Group orders involve more people, more fittings, and more coordination than a single suit, and building in slack is what keeps the week of the wedding calm. If your party is arriving in Bangkok shortly before the ceremony, tell us the dates and we will be straight with you about what is realistic.
Can Om Fashion make corporate uniforms?
Yes. We produce corporate uniform orders including suits, shirts, blouses, and custom polo shirts, with embroidered company logos and consistent fabric and colour matching across batches. Staff measurements are kept on file so new hires and repeat orders match the existing team. See our corporate uniform page.
Can you measure our staff at our office?
Yes. For corporate orders we can send a tailor to your Bangkok office to measure the whole team in one session, which is far less disruptive than sending staff out one by one.

Ordering Online and Repeat Orders

Consultations, stored measurements, and ordering from abroad.

Can I have a consultation on WhatsApp before I arrive?
Yes, and it is the best way to use your time in Bangkok well. Message us with what you need, when you are in town, and any photos of styles you like, and we will come back with fabric suggestions and a realistic timeline before you land.
Do you keep my measurements on file?
Yes. Your full measurement record is kept after your first visit, along with notes on the fit adjustments we made for you. Repeat clients often order without setting foot in the shop again.
Can I reorder from overseas using my saved measurements?
Yes. Returning customers can reorder suits, shirts, and accessories by WhatsApp from anywhere in the world, choose cloth from photographs or our digital catalog, pay remotely, and have the finished garments shipped to them.
What if my size has changed since my last visit?
We provide virtual measurement guidance, walking you through the handful of dimensions that matter most so you can check them at home with a tape measure and a helper. We compare those against your file before cutting, and flag anything that looks inconsistent rather than guessing.
Can I book an appointment through the website?
Yes. Use our appointment page to request a time, or message us on WhatsApp for a faster reply. Tell us your hotel and we can arrange complimentary pickup.
