"We wanted to create a real James Bond's suit", said Tran, adding that this niche is very welcome because the demand for sewing services has decreased.
Tran says that the design of the suit was the easy part , but there have been many technological difficulties. It can be used kevlar from which to make bulletproof vests, because it is very heavy and bulk material.
