How much does a suit cost at Huong Xuan Tailor?
Reviewers paid 4,900,000 VND (about US$196) for a three-piece linen suit and 5,100,000 VND (about US$204) for a two-piece cashmere wool-blend suit. Dresses cost US$80 to US$85, and tailored low-waisted jeans about £30. Bulk orders get a better price.

How long does Huong Xuan Tailor take?
Huong Xuan works quickly: some single pieces are ready in two hours and most orders within 24 to 48 hours. One reviewer had three suits made within 48 hours, including a fitting. Plan on one or two fittings, and adjustments are free.
Not every fit gets fixed, though. At least four reviews describe three or four attempts at corrections, such as tapering trousers or moving buttons, that were still not right. One staff member visited a customer's hotel several times to adjust a fitting. No reviewer mentions shipping abroad.

What customers say about Huong Xuan Tailor
Had the best experience with at this tailor with Lala! She’s incredible and so nice. I got a dress tailored & a suit set and I love both! She made changes where needed and was lovely to work with. Also Diem was so great and quick tailoring.

Complaints to know before visiting Huong Xuan Tailor
- At least 4 reviews (1–2 stars, from about 2 months to a year old) describe fit corrections not being properly made across multiple fitting attempts (trousers 2 sizes too big, incorrect taper, buttons not moved) even after 3–4 visits, with staff reportedly dismissing the concern with 'baggy is better' or 'it will shrink in the wash' — this near-identical phrasing appears in two separate reviews.
- 3 reviews (1 star) describe a strict no-refund policy enforced even when the finished garment didn't match the agreed design or the fabric quality was poor (one piece pilled after a single wear), with only a partial refund (10–50%) given after the customer pushed back; one reviewer says a physical no-refund sign was produced only once she complained.
Who Huong Xuan Tailor is best for
Huong Xuan Tailor suits couples, friends, families and business travelers who want suits, dresses, shirts, jeans or jumpsuits, including copies of a photo or a garment. Lala, Nho, Bi, Mimi, Linda and Lye are the staff named in reviews, and most reviewers say they did not feel pushed to buy.
At least two did feel rushed or pressured, and one says the owner reacted badly to a request to pay a deposit instead of the full amount upfront, so ask about payment terms before ordering. The complaints above about fit corrections and refunds are worth reading.

Before you order at Huong Xuan Tailor
- Order several pieces if you can: two reviewers say the price drops when you buy more, and a third got a discount for two of the same top in different patterns.
- Bringing your own fabric does not make it cheaper here. One customer paid 1.1M VND to have a dress made from their own material, more than other tailors quoted using theirs, so ask the price before mentioning it.
- This is one of the shops that works with stretch fabric and denim as well as linen and silk; customers have had jeans made here, one pair for about £30 in 2 days.
- Several critical reviews share one complaint: trousers and sets coming back far too big at the fitting (one said two sizes too big, another was told baggy is better), so check your measurements are actually taken and plan for more than one fitting.
- Do not count on a refund. One customer who asked to pay a deposit instead of the full amount got unfriendly comments from the owner, was later shown a no-refund sign, and got half back only after insisting; another was refused a refund for linen that pilled after a day.
