We're planning a trip to Bangkok in a couple of months and since the tailors there are so famous, I was thinking I would get some clothes tailored. However, after asking about getting trousers tailored, Angie and some others told me a tailor may not necessarily guarantee te perfect fit.

So now I'm rethinking the whole tailoring idea - is it wise? I am thinking of getting a few button down shirts stitched because they rarely fit me right.

I am also considering getting a couple of basic sleevless cotton shells made, because the sleeveless tops I find in stores usually have a too low neckline or too low armholes or both.

I'm not sure if I should get dresses made, mostly because I just bought a few, plus because those aren't as cheap to get custom stitched.

What do you think? Is it a good idea to get a few tops and shirts custom made? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. I know it is still early, but I like to be well prepared!
