When it comes to crafting a distinguished and stylish look, a sharkskin suit is a leading choice.

At Romeo & Juliet Tailor’s House, we’re thrilled to offer you the opportunity to get sharkskin suits meticulously tailored to your requirements by our tailor shops in Bangkok and Phuket.

Sharkskin fabric, known for its two-toned appearance, offers a unique texture that exudes sophistication and class. Often worn as businesswear, it is a remarkable choice for those seeking an exceptional and distinctive look.

Our tailors understand that your style preferences and body shape are unique to you. When you choose to have your sharkskin suits made with us, you have the power to design a suit that reflects your individuality and sense of style, and fits you better than any off-the-rack suit can. From selecting the fabric and colour to choosing from different lapel styles, pocket designs, and buttons, each detail can be customised to suit your requirements and budget.

You can get your initials monogrammed or have your suit made with surgeon cuffs, or perhaps you might even opt for a Milanese buttonhole. There are so many way you can customise your suit – to get a suit that is truly yours.

The process of having a custom sharkskin suit tailored in Bangkok or Phuket by Romeo & Juliet Tailor’s House is simple and straightforward.

1. We begin with a consultation at our conveniently-located tailor shop where we will work with you to understand what you’re looking for in your sharkskin suit. You’ll have the opportunity to discuss your requirements with our team, choose from our range of sharkskin fabrics and explore customisation options that resonate with your unique sense of style.
2. Our tailors will proceed with taking your measurements, so that the suit can be tailored to fit you rather than a standard size.
3. Once your suit has been tailored, we’ll normally schedule 1-2 fittings so that we can consider any adjustments that may be required for you to have a suit that fits you well and allows you to feel comfortable and confident in your own clothes.

We invite you to explore the world of custom sharkskin suits with us, at our tailor shops in Bangkok and Phuket.

When it comes to investing in a high-quality suit, the construction plays a vital role in its durability, fit, and overall look.

At Romeo & Juliet Tailor’s House, there are several ways you can customise your suit for different requirements and budgets. Part of this involves having options when it comes to the construction.

Whether you’re in Bangkok or Phuket, our expert tailors are dedicated to custom tailoring canvassed suits that will fit you well and reflect your uniqueness and individuality in a way off-the-rack suits just can’t.

Canvassed construction refers to the internal structure of a suit jacket, where layers of canvas material are sewn between the outer fabric and the inner lining. This enhances the suit’s shape, providing structure and support. The canvas moulds to the wearer’s body over time, although it may seem a bit stiff to begin with. Half canvas suits feature a canvas in the chest and lapel area, providing essential support and shape to these key areas. Full canvas suits feature a canvas throughout the jacket, down to the hem.

Half canvas construction offers a balanced combination of quality and affordability, making it an excellent choice for those looking for a refined suit within a moderate budget. If you appreciate the finer details and desire the most luxurious option, consider a full canvas suit. Fused suits, which don’t feature the same type of sewn canvassing but are rather held together with glue, tend to be cheaper than half canvas suits, which are in turn cheaper than full canvas suits. These prices are reflective of their quality.

We understand that each client has unique requirements and budgets. By having different options when it comes to the construction of your suit, we can cater to different preferences and budgets. Our tailors work diligently so that every suit, regardless of its construction, is tailored to your requirements. This means that the suit will be tailored to fit you, but we’ll also work with you to understand your design preferences when it comes to your custom suit before tailoring it for you. You’ll be able to choose the fabric, the buttons, the pocket styles, the vents, etc. You can even choose to have your initials monogrammed or to have a Milanese buttonhole. It’s an opportunity to get a truly unique suit.

So, investing in a half or full canvas suit during your time in Bangkok or Phuket is a decision that can bring about exceptional quality, fit, and durability. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and discover the enduring elegance of a tailor-made suit. We also offer a complimentary pickup service from your hotel to our tailor shop, so to take advantage of this service, be sure to include your hotel name and room number when making your appointment. We look forward to seeing you soon.

When it comes to the world of bespoke suits, London is probably the most popular destination due to the famed Savile Row. Several cities in Asia, however, do stand out as havens of exceptional craftsmanship and high quality when it comes to bespoke suits. Bangkok is one such city – and you can get well-tailored suits made for competitive prices in Bangkok – it’s just important to choose the right tailor.

Let’s delve into why getting bespoke suits in Asia – and in particular Bangkok, is a great option, and how Romeo & Juliet Tailor’s House can be your destination for fine bespoke suits.

Tailoring in Asian cities such as Bangkok, Singapore and Hong Kong has earned a global reputation for meticulous craftsmanship that, for many tailor shops, has been passed down through generations. When you opt for bespoke suits at tailors such as these, you’re choosing a tradition that values precision and skill.

Bespoke suits are all about the details. From the choice of high quality fabrics to the positioning of buttons and the shape of lapels, every element is carefully considered to create a garment that’s uniquely yours.
