Hi folks,
I am eventually planning on purchasing a suit off of the internet, or if I can find an RLBL from the local outlet.
I'd like to start looking for a tailor to develop a relationship with.
They seem to come in three categories.
1. The pure tailor that runs or works from an "alterations" shop.
2. The tailor that works out of a formal wear store.
3. The tailor that works out of a store that sells suits (bespoke or RTW).
I feel like asking a tailor to alter a suit purchased from another store when that store sells suits would be offensive.
Would I pretty much be correct in assuming I should narrow my choices to categories 1 and 2 listed above?
Thanks in advance,
--JT
