If you&#8217;re making do with pictures, make sure you print them out so that the tailor can keep them. Think through each of the\u00a0fine\u00a0details of the design, sketch them out if you can&#8217;t find an exact example. What type of fastening will you have and where will it be located? Do you want padding in the top of the dress? How will the hems look? We went through a large number of prototypes before finalising\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/matchimony.co.uk\/collections\/bridesmaid-dresses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Matchimony&#8217;s dress designs<\/a>. A bridesmaid dress needs to be practical and comfortable, as well as stylish, which can be hard to balance!<\/p>\n<h3>How long do you need to be in Vietnam for?<\/h3>\n<p>Many of the tailors in Vietnam promise to turn around items in one to two days, but this usually means they&#8217;re rushed\u00a0and may need to be sent back if there are\u00a0issues. You should allow five days to find a tailor, locate your desired fabric, experiment with a prototype and approve all of the\u00a0final\u00a0designs. If you can, do two\u00a0trips; that way, you can have one dress made on your first visit, take it home to show your bridesmaids, and then get the rest made when you return. Tip: if you get the dresses made in two stints, buy the material in bulk to avoid any risk of mismatching if the tailor runs out (or be prepared to have the first one remade).\u00a0The material stocked at the tailoring shops is always changing, so bear that in mind.<\/p>\n<h3>Who should we take along for the trip?<\/h3>\n<p>Ideally, you&#8217;d be able to take along your entire bridal party so that the clothing can be made to measure. This will probably not be practical, unless you want to combine it with the hen and stag dos! Otherwise, be\u00a0sure to take precise measurements of everyone, particularly the girls. You can even\u00a0take a snap of your desired\u00a0design\u00a0to a seamstress at home, and ask them to show you which measurements will be the most important. Measurements should be taken in centimetres as inches aren&#8217;t accurate enough. If you&#8217;re going to try doing everything in one weekend, go with your fianc\u00e9 so that you can buy both male and female attire\u00a0to match. If you can do two visits, have a girls&#8217; weekend with your bridesmaids and then go back with your man to sort out his crew.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_194084\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-194084\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/Streets-in-Vietnam.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding shopping in Vietnam: Guide to tailoring bridesmaids&#039; outfits, groomsmen&#039;s suits, flower girls&#039; dresses and more\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"size-large wp-image-194084 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/Streets-in-Vietnam.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/Streets-in-Vietnam.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/Streets-in-Vietnam.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/Streets-in-Vietnam.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/768;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-194084\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wander through the many historic streets while you&#8217;re at it<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>What should we look for and ask when choosing a tailor?<\/h3>\n<p>When Natasha and I came up with the idea for <a href=\"https:\/\/matchimony.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">Matchimony<\/a>, we thought that actually designing the dressses and sourcing for a tailor and fabric would be easy. Natasha lives in Ho Chi Minh City, known for its amazing tailors and beautifully-made silks, plus we knew exactly what we wanted. As it turned out, choosing a tailor was the most difficult part of setting up the business! For us, asking about the ethical side of the business was extremely important. Lots of tailors have shops, but the items are actually made in sweatshops, using cheap labour. It&#8217;s worth asking for pictures of where their items are made, plus who will actually be producing the items.<\/p>\n<p>To check for quality, ask for\u00a0pictures\u00a0or physical examples of their past work. You can also hit a travel or Facebook forum and ask for recommendations based on where you&#8217;ll be getting the wedding outfits made. If you bulk buy everything straight up, rather than playing with a prototype, bear in mind that many tailors will force you to pay up to 50 percent for items upfront \u2013 so make sure you&#8217;re happy with the quality! With that said, a lot of tailors will fix anything that you don&#8217;t like &#8211; if the zip is the wrong colour, the hem is too long, etc.<\/p>\n<h3>How can we choose the best materials?<\/h3>\n<p>There are two ways to choose your fabric. The first is to visit a fabric market and buy them first, and then find a tailor. The second is to get the tailor to provide fabric. Both will cost roughly the same, although you have to be very careful that the tailor uses the agreed upon fabric for the designs. There have been cases where the final items were of a different fabric to high-quality samples in the shop! If you&#8217;re particular about a certain colour, choosing a fabric will be slightly more difficult. In Vietnam, bright colours are very popular, but looking for lighter shades can be problematic.\u00a0Very light colours often vary in tones considerably, so you&#8217;ll need to buy reams in bulk to guarantee a colour and quality match.<\/p>\n<p>Another tip; make sure the fabric you choose is flattering for all your bridesmaids. Silks are beautiful but will show every lump and bump! Silks are also made in shorter lengths in Vietnam, so you&#8217;ll need to keep this in mind when designing your dresses.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/vietnam-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding shopping in Vietnam: Guide to tailoring bridesmaids&#039; outfits, groomsmen&#039;s suits, flower girls&#039; dresses and more\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-194085 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/vietnam-wedding.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/vietnam-wedding.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/07\/vietnam-wedding.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/500;\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>How much can we expect to pay, and can we haggle for a better price?<\/h3>\n<p>Your bridesmaids dresses and menswear will be far cheaper in Vietnam than most other countries, which is amazing when you think about the fact that they&#8217;re made to measure. Therefore, price shouldn&#8217;t be the first thing you ask the tailor about (they won&#8217;t give you a number until you choose the material and explain the design, anyway). Once you&#8217;ve decided on the fabric and style, you can start negotiating on the price \u001f\u2013\u00a0the more you buy, the more you can negotiate. The best way to haggle is to bulk buy, and reduce the final price by around 15-20 per cent. Dresses typically range from US$40 for something really simple in affordable material to US$150 if you want something complex in expensive fabric.<\/p>\n<h3>Any final tips?<\/h3>\n<p>Be careful with choosing an unusually-coloured bridesmaid dress. If you want the whole bridal party to match, it can be hard to find the exact shades you need. And if you don&#8217;t want to spend hours walking around department stores while carrying fabric samples when you get home, remember to ask the tailor to also make your ties, cravats, waistcoats, and other extras while you&#8217;re there.<\/p>\n<p><em>Thank you, ladies!
