A tuxedo is the one garment where fit is non-negotiable. Rental tuxedos may appear to make sense if you don’t think you’ll wear a tuxedo more than once every 2-3 years, but rarely do they deliver in terms of fit.
Khaosan Tailor makes custom tuxedos to your measurements, often around the cost that a good rental costs at home, and with the entire process handled at your hotel or residence in Bangkok.
Black Tie, Done Properly
We make classic single-breasted tuxedos with peak or shawl lapels, double-breasted dinner jackets, white dinner jackets for tropical events, and full three-piece black tie sets with cummerbund or low-cut waistcoat. Satin or grosgrain lapel facings, covered buttons, jetted pockets and side-stripe trousers are all done to traditional black tie standards. If your event has a specific dress code — creative black tie, warm-weather formal, a themed wedding, tell us and we will design around it.
Weddings and Events
Tuxedos are one of our most requested wedding garments, for grooms and groomsmen alike. We can build a coordinated set for the whole wedding party, with subtle variations that distinguish the groom. This style variation could be the colour of the jacket, the lapel style, or something else. See our full wedding tailoring page for bridal gowns, bridesmaid dresses and group discounts.
Timeline and Process
Like our suits, a tuxedo can be completed in as few as three days, subject to sufficient fittings. We recommend allowing an extra day for tuxedos where possible, since formalwear rewards precision. Measurements, fabric selection and fittings all happen at your hotel — no showroom visits, and no commission-inflated pricing. Just contact us directly. Details on our what we charge page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a custom tuxedo in Bangkok cheaper than renting at home?
Often, yes — and you keep it. A made-to-measure tuxedo from Bangkok frequently costs in the same range as a one-weekend rental in many parts of the world, with a fit no rental tuxedo can match.
Can you outfit a whole groomsmen party?
Yes. We regularly outfit full wedding parties and offer group discounts when orders are placed together. We can measure everyone in one hotel session.
Do you make accessories?
We can make bow ties, cummerbunds and pocket squares in matching or contrasting fabrics to complete the set.
