How long does Co Tailor take?
Co Tailor works quickly: a suit in two days, a gilet over a weekend, and items ready at the promised time. Quick trouser alterations are done while you wait, sometimes in a few minutes.
Fittings are not described in detail. One reviewer's trousers fitted perfectly the first time, and a long-term client says that if something is not right the first time, Huong will fix it. One 1-star reviewer says an alteration was still not ready after three days. Reviews say nothing about hotel delivery or shipping.

Who Co Tailor is best for
Co Tailor suits solo travelers, couples and wedding guests who want a suit, waistcoat, blazer, skirt, blouse, trousers or dress made with personal advice. One client with a body shape unusual for local sizing says the fit is far above the 24-hour tailoring seen everywhere. It also handles small repairs and alterations.
With 22 Google reviews there is less to go on than at bigger shops. Read the complaints above, and call before you go, since one reviewer found the shop closed during the day.

Before you order at Co Tailor
- Huong keeps some designs on display that you can order from, or she will make your own idea.
- One customer with a body shape well outside standard Vietnamese sizing got suits that fit perfectly; the tailor spent time working through styles, colours and cuts first.
- Simple alterations can be quick here: one customer had trousers altered after waiting only a few minutes.
- One visitor found the shop closed with the sign still up, so call before you go.
- Look over your piece when you collect it: in an older review, a staff member who spoke no English handed over a different, stained shirt.
