What customers say about BEAN Tailor
Super helpful and excellent craftsmanship. Did everything in a 1.5 day turnaround and still made time for alterations. Made a custom wool pea/trench coat with a satin lining and then also the dress pictured (also made ao dai pants not pictured).
Wow! From start to finish this was a great experience. It only took 2 days for all our pieces to be made and we had 2 fittings. I’ve pictured some of them below (excuse the quick magic eraser of friends in the background.
I would highly recommend the Bean Taylor to anyone visiting Hoi An looking for high quality custom pieces.

Complaints to know before visiting BEAN Tailor
- 1 review (3 stars) describes an inattentive staff member who declined to take fresh measurements for a piece being copied from a reference garment (insisting the reference was fine as-is), and felt the ~$65 price was high for a result that wasn't actually tailored to the customer.
Who BEAN Tailor is best for
Bean Tailor suits families, couples, groups of friends and plus-size customers ordering several pieces at once, from suits, coats and waistcoats to dresses, jumpsuits and ao dai. You can bring a reference photo or garment to copy, and big orders are common: one customer trusted Mai with a wedding suit, six groomsmen suits and six ao dai. Loan is the name reviewers mention most, along with Rose, Mai, Hanh and Lucy, and most say nobody pushed them even when they bought more than planned.
If you are copying a garment, ask to be measured anyway; the 3-star complaint above is about exactly that.

Before you order at BEAN Tailor
- One customer notes the shop has no air conditioning but staff hand out cold water, and many others mention a free coconut coffee or a cold beer while they wait.
- Staying in Da Nang is not a problem: customers had orders delivered to Da Nang hotels and a villa, and one had a last alteration couriered to the hotel within 30 minutes.
- For trousers, one customer recommends asking for Ms Hanh, who made a lined thick-wool pair and a thin-wool pair that fit well; the reviewer singles the shop out for high-waisted trousers.
- They will rework a piece that misses: one customer's dress had its bodice and skirt completely changed overnight, and another's misunderstood design was remade by Loan as a new outfit.
- If you want a garment copied, ask for your measurements to be taken as well: one customer was told the reference piece was enough and felt about $65 was too much for the result.
