Venus tailor has a shop in the foyer of the Bali Dynasty Hotel in Tuban. The tailor made jackets, handbags and shoes here are fantastic quality and the workmanship cannot be faulted. The price is the same as you will find on the street, though they look as though they may be more expensive, they are not.
Had a long leather coat made, no fittings, perfect fit first time. Had shoes made, which were brilliant. Bought a handbag for mum, and everyone comments on it back here at home.
Two other friends had jackets made and one had shoes made also. She took shoes to have copied and they did an amazing job. Can highly recommend Venus.
I have been to Bali four times now and have had leather goods made on all occasions but must say this is the best work I have seen, will only go to this tailor now.
