ichi_gami Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Went a little Valentino-crazy today, picked up some new suits. But I didn't buy retail, so now I need to find a tailor who is very good or excellent to get everything fitted...anyone know of someone that fits the description? Name/phone/addy if possible...? ------------------Administrative Signature: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel1997 Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 I know of one in Queens and in Brooklyn, but I think any place that sells sutits you can go in and ask if they can do it for you if you pay them. ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petp Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 i went to bergdorf and asked them if they could recommend a tailor, they sent me to this guy a block from them (57th and 6th)who used to work there. he's this little italian old guy, who does unbelievable work, kinda pricey, but do u wanna trust just anyone? i dont have his name here, but i'll look at home to find it. youre best bet is to call up a really good suit maker (armani, kiton, brioni)...and ask them to recommend someone.
