What to do and see in Hong Kong, China: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

November 29, 2021 Moriah Teneyck

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Empire International Tailors

For locals and visitors alike, getting a suit stitched in Hong Kong's bustling Kowloon district has always been a popular activity. The ability to put one together in 24 hours has earned the city's tailors a global reputation for speediness. However, many believe that the idea of such reckless speed and rush defeats the whole purpose of getting a tailor made suit. Tucked away in the quieter part of Kowloon, Empire International Tailors practices a timely yet more delicate form of bespoke tailoring. Since its founding in 1983 by Anthony Asif, the eldest of three brothers, the family-run business has distinguished itself from the rest with a tailoring philosophy focused solely on personalization. Overseen by Anthony himself, each garment is handmade in Empire’s workshop by master tailors with an average 40 years of experience. Measurements, fit requirements, and other details are carefully studied to mold a personalized, well-fitted, and comfortable garment for the wearer. Empire’s successful approach to bespoke tailoring has earned it a global reputation as a favored and reliable spot in Hong Kong’s world-famous tailoring scene. We believe that quality tailoring isn’t just about speed, It's about the process devoted to perfecting the final product to the wearer’s needs.

Since I found it increasingly difficult to find an off-the-rack suit that fits, I decided to go with my first bespoke suit. After some careful research on many websites (including Tripadvisor) I repeatedly found Empire at the top and decided to try them out. I'm glad I did as I couldn't be any happier with the suit and the overall experience. There are a lot of fabric and style options to choose from and they give very useful advice along the way to help you choose. Fitting is quick without ever feeling rushed and the resulting suit fitted perfectly first time without any further modification required. The service was really first class as the whole process was very relaxed and professional. Whether you live in HK or are visiting, and looking for a tailor-made suit at very reasonable prices, this is the place to go and I certainly will be going back for more.

I needed to get a suit made urgently (I couldn't wait for my usual trusted Singapore tailors estimated 3+ wks) and was visiting HK so did some google searches and OM Custom Tailors came up with some very good reviews so I tried them out. Vijay went above and beyond to make things happen within my 48hr timescale and I left HK with a well tailored suit and shirt. I've since had several more trousers and shirts made and have also introduced my HK based colleagues who have also recently had suits made. Thanks Vijay...see you next time.

I needed a suit in a hurry and Rashmi Custom Tailors delivered a perfectly tailored suit five days later. The workmanship was impressive, as was the "second opinion" measurement whereby two tailors took my measurements and compared results to ensure accuracy and fit. A master of the craft.

Was in Peter’s shop 2 years ago while n HK and bought a perfect suit. I’d been looking for a light blue sport coat at home. Couldn’t find what I wanted. Contacted Peter with a picture of color I caught on tv ad. Got six samples via email and picked one. Less than a month later, it arrived and was just excellent. He keeps excellent measurements and notes. Comes to US during normal times. Contact him for the schedule and book some time.

George was a really nice and friendly tailor who knew what he was doing. Before I entered his shop, I had a plan as to what my suit should look like (based on photos) and he was able to replicate that to perfection, while giving me some advice as to what details I should add to make my suit more unique to me. The first fitting took place a day after the payment and it was smooth and efficient. The master tailor is also very experienced and he was there to tweak my suit according to my liking - I had very particular requests where I wanted wide lapels and small leg openings. Both the master tailor and George were able to cater my needs. Fast forward 3 weeks, I had the opportunity to try on the final product. I was told that his clients usually don’t require a second fitting session which, at the beginning, I was quite skeptical about. However, I tried on the suit and wow, it fit like a glove. It was almost perfect other than the fact that there were some excess fabric on the side of the shirt. I have never had such a fantastic suiting experience and for the price, you cannot beat it. George’s expertise along with the master tailor’s craft makes the product worth every penny. Overall, I would totally come back for more suits in the future and I highly recommend Gill Tailor.
