We had such a wonderful experience here. The ladies made a beautiful custom suit for me and a skirt for my girlfriend, and we were both extremely happy with the results.

Who Viet Thanh Silk is best for
Viet Thanh Silk suits couples, friends, families, solo and business travelers who want suits, shirts, linen or silk pieces, including wedding dresses; one was made from measurements sent from Australia. It also works well if you want a favourite garment copied from photos or a sample. Reviewers repeatedly say the staff are not pushy.
There are no recurring complaints in the reviews. The main thing to plan for is the deposit, and with only two days in Saigon, ask for a rush date when you order.

Before you order at Viet Thanh Silk
- One customer was asked for a 50% deposit when ordering; suit buyers mention a free tie and pocket square, and one says the suits come in the shop's own garment bags.
- When the shop has many orders it may not take on a 24-hour suit; one customer was given a three-day timeline for that reason, and two others had suits ready in five days.
- The English-speaking front desk is not in every day; one customer who came on such a day relied on another customer to translate.
- Besides suits, the shop makes silk pieces in fabric it stocks, such as robes, kimonos and Mao-collar shirts.
- Mai keeps measurements on file and ships reorders abroad; customers mention Australia and Canada.
