Before you order at Bòng Tailor
- The shop looks small, so if the fabric you want is not on the shelves, ask: they took one customer to another shop two doors down with a bigger range.
- If they do not have the fabric or colour you want, say no rather than accept a substitute: one customer settled for a different fabric for a specific dress and was unhappy with it, while another was glad Oanh did not press an unsuitable material just to make a sale.
- Check every piece at pickup on a large order. One customer who had many items made suspected some work goes to a factory, and found poor stitching on a few pieces and a yellow stain on a white top; another found crooked inside seams and untrimmed threads on a linen A-line dress.
- Tell them when you are leaving: one customer was offered a fitting as late as 8:30 pm, another had a final change made in the five hours before leaving town, and a third got a dress the same day before a flight.
- They have made traditional Scottish kilts for wedding parties, if you need something outside the usual suits and dresses.
