    BEST SUITS- Look no further!!!
    No. 134 JoJo Tailor! Amazing! She knows her stuff, and takes extra time to work directly with you on what design you want, what fabrics, colors, etc… she takes an active role in helping you steer away from bad styling choices and toward smart styling choices… and she doesn’t do it to upsell, but to ensure that you will be pleased and impressed with the results. Her work is detail oriented, perfectly sized, and expertly tailored. I’ve never had a suit fit me so perfectly, and it feels so good wearing… I ended up buying another suit from her and several shirts. She’s might come in a little pricier than some others you may talk to at the market… but I can promise you she’s worth every penny. You never know there which tailors are exceptional and Willis ones will be less satisfactory… JoJo knows her worth and I promise you, you will walk away confident and ecstatic about your garments, i introduced her to friends who have since bought from her and have been equally impressed. Visit her. Learn from her. Buy from her. It’s a wonderful experience all around.

    Nice suits at JoJo tailored
    Really expansive market with multiple levels and hundreds of stores and sellers selling custom made everything. I was there to get a nice suit (or two!) so on recommendation of these reviews I went straight to No. 134 JoJo Tailor. They spoke good English and were fast, professional and made great suits! Like very fast - I had mine done in a few days! Wool suits were around 2000 yuan base which is a fair price and the quality has lived up to it. So as far as I'm concerned, great products, perfectly tailored and very good prices. Would recommend and I'll probably be back next time I'm in Shanghai for another suit or two!

    If you are looking for high-quality and professional tailoring and fluent English advice, you absolutely have to go to No. 134 Jojo. I went there with my boyfriend and we were absolutely thrilled with the high quality and expertise of Jojo and their staff. All our wishes were more than fulfilled. My boyfriend had suits tailored, which were made within a few days as he had a return flight, and I had two dresses made to measure from a dress I brought as a template, as well as a suit and a silk blazer. All our wishes and expectations were exceeded and we will definitely be back. I have also recommended Jojo's No. 134 to my friends and my friends were completely delighted. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Shanghai and will definitely be going back to Jojo's again

    No. 129 Joyce Tailor, beautiful tuxedo
    I had a tuxedo made to measure at No. 129 Joyce, including a bow tie, cummerbund and two shirts. It was very quick and I was able to pick up the suit just two days later. I am very satisfied, the tuxedo looks great. I will probably have another suit made there.

    No.129 Joyce Tailor is very nice!
    No.129 Joyce Tailor is very kind and professional. Seeking a bespoke skirt suit, I entrusted my vision to Joyce. The tailored creation reflected meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to delivering precisely what was requested. The price was right. Grateful for No.129 Joyce Tailor's proficiency, I commend her for a job impeccably done :)

    No.129 Joyce Tailor is super A++++
    You can book any suits you like in No. 129 Joyce Tailor, as long as you provide the photo of suits you want. I booked two suits and a cashmere coat, wore them 2 years as of now, still very nice, very good quality.

    No. 129 Joyce & Rita Tailors
    I was part of a delegation from Singapore to Shanghai a couple of weeks ago and on our first night there, a friend (who's a fashionista) said she was going to go to her trusted tailor to get some clothes done (she is also from Singapore and apparently her mum and her get their stuff tailored there all the time) and asked a few of us if we wanted to go along. I did and I am so glad I did. I made 10 shirts and 2 suits and was absolute delighted with the quality and they were definitely more than value for money! I'll definitely head down to make more stuff the next time I'm in Shanghai or maybe I'll just order from them via Wechat. I've been going to a very reputable tailor in Bangkok for years, but I'd say Joyce and Rita makes more fashionable stuff with the same quality tailoring and materials. Highly Recommended!

First time suit buyer. After failing to even closely fit in over a dozen ready to wear suits, finally decided to look for affordable MTM(made-to-measure) options and found “South Bund Fabric Market”. Tbh, most of the shops look quite similar, and the reviews online vary so wildly, it was almost impossible to make an easy choice. Thanks to a local friend, finally decided to go with the “Suits by Susan”. The prices seem to range between 2k-5k based on material and other details. After choosing the material, style and initial measurements, the fitting was after one week, where their tailor does adjustments and I also asked for couple modifications. Fast forward another week and I got the suit and it was pretty satisfactory, fit was just right and felt quite comfortable overall. If anyone’s looking for a good fit and affordable suits here in Shanghai, 10/10 would recommend it. The place is in the second floor(269) of the building, and you can ask for Andy there, who speaks quite good English. (see him there in the pic)

Also, It seems ‘suits by susan’ has multiple stores but the staff on the other one I’ve spoken with earlier were not quite patient and annoyingly salesy, thus I’ve ended up with this branch.

During a short visit to Shanghai over a long weekend, I came across Kelly & May's tailoring 244#. Her friendly and knowledgeable approach, along with her excellent English, made it easy to discuss fabrics and styles. Before long, with the help of some photos of dresses I liked, I had chosen some fabrics, been measured, and agreed on a fantastic price.

I left the shop at 6:00 PM on a Saturday evening with the promise that my dresses would be ready for collection the following day. To my surprise, Lily delivered the items on time and to an excellent standard. The dresses were produced with high-quality materials and excellent seamstress work, fitting perfectly and looking beautiful. My entire experience with Kelly and her services was 10/10, and if I could rate her higher, I would. I strongly recommend her work and will return in the future to have more items made.

Kelly, thank you for my beautiful dresses!

Absolutely fantastic tailors! I decided to go to them because of the reviews and they did not disappoint. The suits are well made and the price was very cheap compared to what it would cost us back home, they offer hotel delivery if you're unavailable to pick it up, and even ship internationally.

What stands out most about this place is the service.
First of all, Kelly is charming, funny, and informative. My brothers have very different builds to each other and were unsure on which suit style would look flattering but Kelly helped with that. She suggested and explained what type of shirt, tie, and shoes they could wear and whether they should wear a waistcoat.
Secondly, we received the suits within 3 days and my brother wanted the suit adjusted a little and it was done within the day which was great as our flight was the next day.
Lastly, they gave us a free tie for each suit and also gave us a little discount. My 2 brothers ended up buying 3 suits between them and will most likely be buying more.

They are very pleased with the suits and I definitely recommend going to Kelly & May when you're in Shanghai.

This was my first time ever going to the fabric market and it can be very overwhelming, especially not speaking Chinese. However, on the second floor (store #244) we ran in Kelly and May. She spoke perfect English and understood exactly what I wanted. I usually don’t like traditional suits. I like more trendy looks. Baggier fits. And Kelly understood that perfectly. I had a jacket and matching pants made and was very happy with the results. She also offered to do free alterations if I find anything wrong with it as I wear it more.

She is so kind and friendly and made the whole experience very easy, efficient, and comfortable. Like being with an old friend. If you are ever in Shanghai and want something made or even just altered, then I insist going to Kelly and May. She speaks English very well, cares a lot about the quality of her work, and for a very good price considering I know have a compete custom, tailor-made suit that I can easily get altered.

I will definitely be back to the fabric market thanks to her. It is a great option if you are tired of fast fashion and want pieces that are going to last and don’t cost an extortionate amount of money.

The South Bund Soft Spinning Material Market is home to hundereds of tailors and seamstresses, and is Shanghai’s prime destination for bespoke clothing garments. If it can be stitched and sewn, it can almost certainly be made at the market.

One of the most popular shops at the market, is Kelly & May #244, which draws in a loyal following of locals and tourists alike and for good reason. I would argue that Kelly & May offers the best value for money when it comes to men’s tailoring. Firstly, both women for whom the shop is named,are helpful, easy to talk to and knowledgeable when it comes to tailoring. May recommended a lapel width and suit style for me based on my build and her recommendation resulted in myriad compliments on the finished garment.

Secondly, the suit construction itself is consistent with higher end men’s suiting. For example, the jackets aren’t made with cheap fused material like lower end off the rack garments. This results in a better draping, longer lasting garment. Additionally, there’s a range of different fabrics from which to chose. The house fabrics are excellently priced, but they are able to obtain premium fabrics for the more discerning gentlemen.

Overall, Kelly & May offers a quality garment at affordable prices. Both women work hard to build lasting relationships with their customers and the shop’s popularity evinces that, like their tailoring, they get it right.

I recently got a tuxedo from 134 JOJOtailor for my latest concert hosting, and I couldn't be happier with it! The craftsmanship and attention to detail were amazing. They really took the time to understand what I wanted and delivered a tuxedo that fit perfectly and made me feel confident and stylish. The service was professional, friendly, and fast. I highly recommend 134 JOJOtailor for anyone looking for high-quality tailoring. Thanks for making my event even more special!

I discovered this tailor shop during the month of June to equip myself with new suits for work, and I am absolutely delighted with my experience. I purchased three suits, and each of them is a work of art in terms of cut and style. The suits are not only elegant but also original. The service was impeccable, attentive to all my needs. I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for high-quality, customized clothing.

No. 129 Joyce and Rita were the best!! Went with my partner and brother in law and they got skirts and shirts respectively. I got a three piece suit made out of premium material with a really nice texture on the outside and a cool silk lining. Tough to find this kind of item outside of being tailored because I am a woman and wanted a men’s style but fitted to my body. They did an amazing job of making this happen! All of our items were ready within the week and fit each of us perfectly. Most comfortable and best fitting pants, suit jacket and vest I’ve ever owned. Highly recommend Joyce and Rita to anyone! To say it is worth the price is an understatement as I live in Canada where the cost would be at least triple for such quality tailoring, not to mention the materials. Will be ordering from them in the future, even from abroad!

I was looking for a double-breasted tailored suit in Shanghai, and after reading good reviews I went to Jojo Tailor which is located at number 134 in the market.
The staff were friendly and spoke excellent English. While I described what I wanted, they showed me a great selection of materials. The price for a custom made, wool material suit was very reasonable and the suit was ready in a week. They also altered a linen jacket which they did a fantastic job with.
I am very pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in Shanghai looking for a good, reasonably priced tailor.

I had my trousers made by Kelly at 167. In the pictures, the trousers are all made by her. She is quick, and can deliver throughout China if you are on to your next stop.

I do recommend her for smart trousers and shirts. She makes a one piece collar that stands by itself and frames the face very nicely-I do not have pictures unfortunately.

I am slightly into classic menswear, and I'd rate her over suitsupply. I would recommend you come here early in your trip to get a fitting when you collect it as some alterations may need to be done. She is good and honest at pointing out when suits don't fit well, and will correct them too.

At this price point, I'm not sure where you would find someone like her. I can see why one might be doubtful, but she is pretty good. Not WW Chan or Lancer Bespoke good, but better than SuitSuipply to me.
