It found it surprising that I get so much love from the Aussies. I get more orders from there than anywhere else, including NY.Originally Posted by CharlesAlexander
Which should tell you something about the range available to us over here. Limited choice and eye-wateringly expensive.

The Herringbone shop in Melbourne is actually quite close to Parliament station and literally under the Sofitel.

I had Brisbane City Alterations shorten my suit jacket and sleeves (from the shoulder) on a suit I bought on sale from Herringbone.
Quite pleased with their work.

Serious Off topic question, I need your help Australians:
I remember hearing a slang pejorative term for I think Americans, but I can't recall it specifically. It wasn't anything I have heard before, so I think it is really an Australian thing.
Damn I am trying to at least point someone in right direction, but can't (maybe some play on words having to do with excrement??)

Any Brisbane members used lu lu fashions or PQ Fashions to do alterations?Originally Posted by elvish
If you know of a tailor happy to do alterations do brands that aren't his I'd be glad to know.
Cheers
Have a look at this thread for some suggestions:

I have used George at Richards & Richards (corner of Elizabeth and Edward Streets) a great deal over the past couple of years and he is excellent. Very friendly, very helpful, happy to do what you want, and very high level of workmanship.

I found a pair of 11.5 C RM Williams Brown leather chukkas leather soles - worn a bit - not worn out but ok - nothing great but good all rounder = $15.
Put it this way (as the Bishop said to the Choirboy) - if they were my size I'd have snapped them up.

PM me for location of Op Shop - Melb - eastern burbs

So You Think.. god, how good is this horse!Originally Posted by jaypee
Barts so reserved holding back from the Cup, I wouldnt be able to help myself
He won't make the extra distance at Flemington, that's why he's holding him back.
Still though, one of the top 5 horses on the planet right now.
