How much does a suit cost at EMMI Tailor by Em's House?
The only figure in the reviews comes from a complaint. One customer paid US$110 for two simple skirts at Emmi Tailor and felt it was well above what other tailors in town charge. She had been brought to the shop by a driver who was the tailor's brother, and says she felt unable to negotiate or say no. Most other reviewers call the prices reasonable, and one was given a fair quote and offered a discount.
The shop accepts US dollars, Vietnamese dong in cash and cards, but cards carry a surcharge, so cash works out cheaper. Ask for a quote per piece and per fabric, and see the Hoi An tailor prices guide for typical figures.
