Recommendations on tailors
I would appreciate if anyone has recommendations on tailors for ladies business dress shirts and slacks. I'm staying at the Davis hotel, Sukhumvit 24 in the Embassy area. I will be there over the weekend for 2days then on my way back for one day. Thanks in advance.

At Asok on the main Sukhumvit Road there is a tailor called JimMan who does womens clothes - as a matter of fact the main person is an English speaking seamstress. I had some stuff done here and turned out very well. The range of fabrics is limited. Just down the road on the other side of Asok station but on the same side of the road is a Chinese shop for fabrics called Hang something. They have a great range of fabrics esp linen and cotton so you can go to JimMan, figure out how much fabric you need for what you want, pick up fabric from the Chinese shop then go back to Jim Man and give it. I would suggest you tackle this first thing in the morning on your first day as your schedules are tight. Also try to insist on a trial for 1 piece of both on day 2 evening then pick them all up on your last day. From the davis walk down to Phrom Phong BTS (Emporium) and take the BTS to Asok to reach the fastest.
