Not sure if this is the right place to post this so please move if necessary.

I just got back from the BIFF, Bangkok International Fashion Fair, and was surprised to find a booth that was hawking nothing else but custom shirts. Tailors don't usually do this show.

The company is called CAPO. I have no idea who they are nor do I have any additional information on them but the shirts they had on display looked pretty good. Ironically, I was just thinking about who else I can get my shirts done with after a tad bit of a price shock with B Narin. Saw some black fabric that I liked last week and made the mistake of ordering a shirt without asking the price. That Egyptian Cotton shirt ended up costing me about $150.

Anyway, company info as follows (as per the card I received):

Marriott Resort & Spa Hotel
Room G07, 2nd Floor, Royal Garden Plaza Bangkok
257 Charoennakorn Road, Samare, Thonburi, BKK
Tel/Fax +66 02 877 9779
Mobile +66 08 0447 9980
[email protected]

Anyone whose got any additional info on these guys, please feel free to add. I didn't have the time to check out their shop but will do so on my next trip.

Thanks.

Maybe they were punishing you for ordering a black shirt.

Touche. Sigh, all those years of working in Milan have gone to waste. I should have known better
