Hi knotties!

I'm from the DC area and am having a hard time finding a seamstress to make an Ao Dai (Vietnamese Dress) in the area. I've heard that there is a large Vietnamese community in the Philly area and was looking for recs on where to get an ao dai in Philly. I'd like to avoid buying one online. Thanks!

    Hi, yes, I had my ao dai done in Philly. She has a store near South street. She was really quick too - took her maybe a week to get it done. Then another week to get some minor fixes - since it's custom made. I brought my own material and she charged me $120 for labor work only. I can probably find her phone# for you, just PM me if you're interested.

    Hi,

    Could you post the info for the Philly ao dai maker? 

    I found a lady in Manhattan's Chinatown that can make them, but for $380, plus fabric!
