Experience Da Nang Fabric Market: Get a Custom-Tailored Ao Dai Made Fast to Make Your Trip Complete

One of the most meaningful souvenirs to take home from Central Vietnam isn't something pre-packaged in a box, but an outfit tailored to fit your exact body measurements. The second floor of Da Nang's traditional markets is a true paradise of fabrics and famously fast tailoring!

1. Getting lost among the fabric stalls of Han Market & Con Market

Stepping up to the 2nd floor of Han Market, you will be overwhelmed by hundreds of fabric stalls piled sky-high with every kind of material: from soft mulberry silk, airy sand silk, and luxurious brocade embroidered with raised floral patterns to cool linen printed with tropical motifs.

Express Tailoring: Just pick out the fabric you love, and our on-site seamstresses will take your measurements in just 5 minutes. Many stalls offer tailoring for traditional áo dài, modernized áo dài, or maxi beach dresses, and will deliver them right to your hotel in just 4 to 8 hours.

2. Tips for choosing fabric and ordering tailor-made souvenirs

Choose materials suited to the climate: If you want to wear it to the beach for photos during your trip, go for raw silk (đũi), linen, or light, thin silk that absorbs sweat well. If you're having an áo dài tailored as a keepsake to wear for holidays and Tết, choose mulberry silk or brocade with a slight stretch.

Negotiate an all-inclusive price: Ask clearly whether the price covers both the fabric and the tailoring labor, so you avoid surprise extra charges for buttons, panel hem trim, or bust lining.

Try on your items in person before collecting them: When you receive your order, try it on right away so the tailors can promptly adjust the waistline or the length of the garment's flaps before you head to the airport to fly home.
