What customers say about Pham Minh Tailor
Bought a bespoke (the new word for custom) suit here for a wedding, with a shirt, for about $330. It's a beautiful suit. I haven't gotten the wedding pics, but I think I can post something so you get the idea.

Before you order at Pham Minh Tailor
- The shop is in District 1, just off the Saigon Centre shopping complex.
- This family business kept one reviewer's measurements on file so that later orders can be shipped to the US.
- A three-day order leaves little room for fittings. One customer who had three suits made in three days felt a few more fittings would have made them perfect.
- You can bring old garments you like to have them remade; one customer had old suits redone with allowance for changes in body shape.
