Who Se Se Tailor is best for

Bring photos of what you want; the shop also displays its most popular fits on mannequins outside. Se Se, Anna and Suong are the names in the reviews.
Several reviewers say the staff were not pushy, unlike other tailors in Hoi An, and gave them space to think. Simple pieces look like the safer bet, since one blouse order needed four fittings and still did not fit well.
