Getting Clothing Made in the Russian Market

Getting Clothing Made in the Russian Market - Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Toul Tompoung Market aka the Russian Market is a great place to go to get clothing made in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Custom-made clothes are very cheap in Cambodia. In one section of the market you can pick out a fabric, and then head around the corner to the line of sewing machines where you will surely find a seamstress or tailor that can make you a dress, shirt, or pretty much whatever you want. It helps if you bring in an item that you'd like to duplicate, or at least a photo. I set out to make a new shirt. How much does it cost? How long does it take? Did they do a good job? Don't worry, I'm on it.

Stop it! I was literally yesterday thinking I want to clone my existing t-shirt. Will be moving over there next week ;) Such glad tidings, Ryan.

Love the Fruit to Shirt ratio logic. I, too, bring a pattern with me. Why do they call it the Russian Market?- I didn't see any Russians. Yes, good addition to the channel, (I would go with long sleeves for more sun protection but, you do you, right?). Thanks

I think there use to be a lot of Russians in Phnom Penh and that was the area they hung out. They sell a lot of winter clothing there too.

@isaacplaysbass8568 Жыл бұрын

Lookin' Good Ryan! I reckon you should keep the original shirt for the next time that you get one made. (Else if you take the pineapple shirt the tolerances might gradually shift). I think that it's worth having it made because it's from a pattern that suits you. The bobbling, quality etc all seemed to be fabric based? Presumably spending more time choosing fabric will make the cost of the seamstress all the more worth it? Next up, Take Sarah to pick her fabric to have a dress or other outfit made up.

@itchyfeetonthecheap Жыл бұрын

Thanks. I like the idea of the dress too. Next time I'll shop around for the fabric longer - maybe go to a different market. I think there are more options in Central market or BKK market.

6:35 13$ is a bit overpriced as a Cambodian myself. Suitable price is 10$ for a shirt which is lower than trouser; next time negotiate for that or you may want to pay more for her service as you like.

I think so too. Not so much for the fabric, but the $13 to make it. That being said, it's still a good deal. Next time I'll go to the more local market. The Ratssian market has tourist prices.
