Hello there!
I'll be in Bangkok in a few days, and since I am a 3XL 120-kilo girl, I assume I'll need to have clothing made. I am just looking for simple short-sleeve shirts to wear while traveling. I'm wondering what sort of place I should have these made -- a tailor, or seamstress, or...?

P.s. Any idea on cost or turn-around time?

Hi JavaJunkie! I had some shirts made in Vietnam: approx. $30 each, completed overnight, 1 and a half days if they needed amendments. I guess Thailand is probably on a similar scale.
It's definitely worth having a look around markets when you're in BKK: I found good quality T-shirts with really cool designs on Khao San Road for approx. $4 - in Western sizes too!
Have a great trip!
