Wedding Dress Seamstress

Hi, I've bought my wedding dress online - and now I'm trying to find a seamstress in the Busan area to have it fitted... A little bit of English would help... But not necessary - Any suggestions would be helpful!

Thanks!

Re: Wedding Dress Seamstress

I don't know of any specialized places, but what first springs to mind is the clothes and fabric market at Busan Jin Market. There are tons of seamstresses (is that still p.c?) in the streets around there and if you go to the hoards of Hanbok sellers on the first floor, they might be able to help you or point you in the right direction. (They actually sell the materials only in the market, but they obviously send it off somewhere to get it stiched together.)

Also, it depends on what exactly you need doing. If it is relatively minor work, just look around your local neighbourhood for 옷수선 shops, which literally means 'mending' shop. They can take up hems and stuff like that, but if it's more tailored work I don't know if they could help you. No harm in asking though. A lot are attached to dry cleaning shops by the way.

Here is a street view of Busan Jin Market. If travelling by subway get off at 범일둉 (Beomildong) and walk along the main road away from Seomyeon. To get back to map view just click the X in the top right hand corner. If you get lost just a local 진시장? (Jin Shi Jang?)
