This time of year presents so many special opportunities to get together with friends and family and of course requires many outfits to be sewn. Only those who armour themselves with the right cheat code will come out classy. It’s DAY 17 of 30 FASHION CODES in 30DAYS.
I know romance eventually fades, and friends come and go. But do you know which relationship you should never take for granted? The one you’ve got with your tailor. If you haven’t got one yet, you’re seriously missing out. Your tailor will be the fairy godmother to your Cinderella or the godfather to your Prince Arthur. He or she can transform that fabric to a style of your choice.
When I was in the university, I had a particular Tailor (HIS GRACE FASHION) that made all of my outfit. I love classy gowns and I’m very particular about the detailng of an outfit. She knew this and did justice to all of my outfits. I got amazing compliments often. Leaving uni, I wished she could follow me to my location, because she was very very good. All the outfits I’m wearing below were made by HIS GRACE FASHION and yes you guessed right— I bought the fabrics myself! We discussed this yesterday, what’s the essence of embracing fine fabrics and a quack just spoils the fabrics!(unending gloom and tears, lol)😵💫😵💫😵💫
The confidence boost that you get from wearing a good Suit or Floral Gown is incredible. You deserve to experience that boost. Don’t settle for wearing stuffy, uncomfortable outfits forever. Instead, look for a good tailor who you can build a lifelong relationship with. I promise that it will be worth it.
Here are reasons everyone should have a good tailor on speed dial:
1) To avoid stories that touch
This theory is as simple as alphabets. We all know these things— late delivery, poor detailing, missed styles, dissatisfaction, disappointment and many more.
2) They give you a reason to stay fit
Christmas is coming, and who’s going to say no to all the great food, right?
With a good tailor, you may have a little bit more motivation to start on that season a lot earlier than usual. After all, you wouldn’t want to grow out of your favourite trousers or dress, would you? Perfectly fitting clothes are hard to find, and once a good tailor has helped you create a pair that suits your dream body just right, you’ll have more of a reason to keep the fat off.
3) They be there when you need them
There will inevitably come a time when the jacket you needed for a special event tears a seam on the day of. Rather than sneak out during lunch to grab your second choice, why not head over to your tailor so he or she can mend it for you? This is the kind of support you need in your life.
4) They’ll make sure you’re comfortable
Off-the-rack clothes are made with standard sizes in mind, so unless you’ve got precisely the figure of a mannequin, you are never going to find the perfect fit that allows you to move ever so comfortably. Whether it’s shortening your cuffs or taking in the waist, a good tailor has got your back. This will make even your store purchases look amazing.
5) They know your figure better than you do
Have you ever purchased an outfit that looked absolutely incredible in the store, only to be devastated to find out that it looks nowhere that good on you? We’ve all been there. Most of the time, it’s due to the clothing not been a good fit for your figure.
A tailor will be able to help you learn about the style of clothing that looks great on your body shape. Even if it doesn’t look quite right at first, a couple alternations can completely transform it. A few nips and tucks and maybe a little bit of tapering, and you’ve got a garment that fits your figure and yours alone.
6) They always ensure you look incredible
Tailors have worked with people of all shapes and sizes, and they know what works best for each. They don’t create and modify clothing to fit the conventionally ideal figure – the make clothes that fit real people. This means that your tailor will know how to make your clothes fit you right so that whenever you walk out the door, you feel as confidently dapper as you should.
7) The Emergency Package
Have you ever had a wedding or a program you had to attend last minute and an outfit was essential. You can trust them to handle the job for you or even for a friend. They’re there to save the day.
Christmas and New Year Thanksgiving is around the corner. Get a good tailor today to help you create that style before it’s too late.
Don’t forget to build a good relationship with them.
