 |
|
I may visit Seoul with my sister on a trip and she was thinking of getting a suit made. I've seen lots of stuff for men in the past, what is there for women? How much do they cost? And what quality are they?
Any recommendations?
Thanks. |

Try to find " Eu-Sang-Sil ", that's what they call, they do for your custom made dresses/suits and it's VERY EXPENSIVE. It can go up easily $1000 for one piece of dress. I have several custom made dresses/suits, but I just don't see why spend that much money just for dresses/suits, I've spent that kind money for my dresses/suits when I was Miss, but when I look back it was really stupid way to spend money. |

| Mr friend and I went out to the market area in front of the Osan Military Base and priced suits. 3-piece suits with (skirt, pants, blazer) were 190,000w. Beautiful fabrics to select from, fully lined also. |

go to Japan or Beijing or Hong Kong, even Thailand, New Delhi, Taipei
look at the suits women wear here - they are tacky, outdated, sloppy stitching, horrible materials.
the shoulders are wrong, the length of the jackets are too short, the designs - well they just aren't there - in general K fashion is pretty much borrow/steal/copy from everyone else, then screw it up as much as possible |

Thank you, ladies.
I've been thinking to recommend we go to Taipei, and I've asked a friend to check out prices and quality out there. I've been to phuket before and saw stuff for men, which was cheap but not the greatest quality in the world.
If anyone else has suggestions I'd be happy to read them.
Thanks. |

I thought Pyunghwa market in Dongdaemun did those. I could be wrong because I'm a dude  |
