A common mistake when looking for a suit tailor in District 5: you type “District 5”, pick the nearest shop, and only then find out it sells ready-made suits rather than measuring and making one for you. Both kinds exist in the Chợ Lớn area; what matters is knowing which kind you are walking into.
A note on transparency: this article was compiled by the Mon Amie team. Mon Amie is one of the three businesses featured, so it is clearly labeled “the author of this article” and placed at item 1; the other two are described only from public information on their websites and Google Maps, cross-checked on 12 October 2026, and the order does not reflect quality. Few made-to-measure tailors in this area publish complete information, so the list is short, and one business sells ready-made suits, as noted at item 3.
Quick answer
There are three suit tailor addresses in District 5 (Chợ Lớn area) with complete public information: Mon Amie (357 Nguyễn Trãi), Nhựt Tailor (523 An Dương Vương) and Veston Ken (ready-made). For a suit made to your own measurements, consider Mon Amie or Nhựt Tailor; if you need to buy a ready-made suit, look at Veston Ken.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a good women's suit tailor in District 5?
Among the businesses featured in this article, Mon Amie publishes a women's suit service, with measuring at the Nguyễn Trãi showroom or at home. The other businesses do not appear to mention this service on their public websites (viewed 12 October 2026). You can look at the black short-sleeve two-button women's suit SNU-110 first.
Should I get a suit made to measure or buy a ready-made one in the Chợ Lớn area?
A made-to-measure suit is cut to your own measurements, so it fits the shoulders, sleeves and body; in return you need time for measuring and fittings. A ready-made suit lets you wear it right away but follows standard sizes and usually needs minor alterations. If you have a standard build and need it in a hurry, ready-made is a reasonable choice; if you want an exact fit, choose made-to-measure.
When is Mon Amie's Nguyễn Trãi showroom open?
Open 8:30 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. daily, telephone 0888.111.118. You can drop in to try on suits, ask about suit rental for an occasion or book a measuring appointment through the booking page.
