Top Hong Kong tailors in Kowloon

16 November, 2022 by Expat Living 4 Min Read

https://expatliving.hk/top-hong-kong-tailors-kowloon/

Looking to get a customised suit or a bespoke shirt? Hong Kong has a long history as a world-renowned hub of the tailoring. And the epicentre of that hub is Kowloon, which has a host of tailors sought out by celebrities, businesspeople and political leaders who want made-to-measure clothing. Here’s our guide to some of the best Hong Kong tailors in Kowloon.

Empire International Tailors

Empire International Tailors was established in 1983 by brothers Andy and Anthony Asaf. These Hong Kong tailors have a reputation around the world for excellence, and has been written about in The New York Times, USA Today, CNN, and more. Although consisting of a small team, the work of Empire’s award-winning master tailors speaks for itself. The tailors in their in-house workshop in East Tsim Sha Tsui have more than 30 to 40 years’ experience in making tailored suits.

The family-run tailor shop’s approach is not to rush the work, but instead pay attention to detail with a personal approach that begins with the first fitting. Empire Tailors suggest bringing in pictures which represent the look their clients are going for, and allowing as much time as possible to guarantee the best results for their custom suits. As Andy says: “Everything is overseen by the family, so it’s personal for us. We make sure all of our customers have a personal and comfortable experience. We avoid rush orders and refuse to do the famous 24-hour turnaround Hong Kong is known for. Instead, we allow time for careful fittings and alterations to make sure the final results are perfect.”
