Anyone know a good custom Tailor for women's clothes?

I'm petitie but also a 34 DD so obviously, buying a suit here is not an option, and I don't have time to make my own.

Won Ju, Seoul or Chuncheon?

I'm not a tailor but I'm sure I can learn. I'm gonna need you to come by so I can take some better measurements.

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Seriously, I'm not sure about custom tailor for women. I know this one tailor in Itaewon that speaks very good English. He has a bunch of custom designs for men. I'm sure you could go in there and he could make a women's power suit for you.

What kind of clothes were you thinking about getting made? Dresses? Suits? Jackets?

Maybe you can get shirts/jackets/dresses extra large and then go to an alteration place and have them alter the clothes to fit you.

I have only had a bridesmaid dress made by this woman, and she speaks understandable english..another pal got some skirts made here, and they too were well made.
Shes in itaweon SOOK DRESS MAKER. I think her phone number is still 011 9052 4992.
59-12 itaewon-Dong
Not far from Macdonalds, just down an alley close by.

P.S maybe not a good idea to advertise your breast size on this forum Wink

Good point about size. But it's true, big busted women do NOT exist in KOREA. Try finding a bra in a D or DD cup here! What a pain in the ...

Thanks for the tip on a dress maker. I'll check it out this weekend.

I'm having trouble getting men's tailors to even talk to me about a women's suit. They are too embarrased to measure me.

Suits.

As for buying extra large, it doesn't work well to alter something and be able to achieve the right fit.
