Tailor
An email:
"I'm looking for a quality tailor in the Heights for men's and women's suits and such. If anybody has positive recommendation, I'd appreciate it."
This post reminds me...I'm looking for someone in the SH area that could re-furbish a suede jacket from the 1940's (it was my mom's and I want to restore it so I can wear it). The suede needs cleaned up, a couple of tears fixed, and a new lining. Any suggestions?
There is an amazing chinese woman on kennedy. I am not sure of the name, I will try to get and repost. You can find her under alterations, she is located around the 4000 block on the north side of the road.
ask Kevin White - I hear he has a reasonable tailor - suits are only $600 or so.
ReplyDeletedo you actually need a tailor or just someone who can do alterations?
ReplyDeleteI'm just looking for someone to make alterations. Any assistance would be appreciated!
