Pinky Tailor Shop
888/40 Mahatun Plaza Arcade Phloen Chit Rd, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
Start with the fabric floor. The staff walk you through the selections and explain weave weights before taking measurements. Order a two-piece suit if this is your first bespoke commission. Fitting appointments run across multiple visits, so factor that timeline into your travel schedule. Sunday slots require advance booking by phone or email.
Pinky and Nid opened the shop in 1980. The Mahatun Plaza arcade location sits one BTS stop west of Nana, closer to Ploenchit station than to the plaza's main entrance. Walk through the arcade corridor and the tailor operates across three storeys. The business has stayed family-run.
You walk in and the fabric bolts run floor to ceiling along the walls. Wool, linen, cotton, tweed. Pearl buttons sit in sample cards by the counter.
Staff take measurements by hand, then walk through lapel width, vent style, pocket configuration, lining weight, and button placement, working from your build and proportions rather than adapting a house template. Fittings run across two or three appointments depending on garment complexity and fabric behavior. Bespoke here means individual measurements translated into a single pattern, cut and assembled for one customer, not adapted from a stock size. Adjustments happen after the first fitting, sometimes a second if the initial changes shift the drape or if shoulder pitch needs refinement. The tailors handle both men's and women's commissions, and the women's work includes structured blazers, trousers, and waistcoats alongside dress alterations. The family's approach prioritizes precise fit over fast turnaround, so allow the full standard production timeline rather than requesting rush delivery unless departure dates require it.
Suits run between THB 10,000 and THB 30,000 depending on fabric selection and cut complexity. The shop closes Sunday except for appointments booked ahead.
The shop operates 10 AM to 7:30 PM Monday through Saturday. This is a tailor for customers who want individual fit over volume production.
