I bought some new suits, and the pants came back a little too 'british', if you know what i mean. so much for a good deal from charles tyrwhitt ... i just need the pants let out a bit so that i don't feel like i'm wearing athletic pants. does anyone out there know a good tailor that is local (and open on saturday mornings)? |

The one I swore by has retired (Francesca). There is a newish poster named Heidye (?) who has gotten several compliments from other posters. I've never used her myself. Maybe you could search for her name?
BTW - I thought that both your initial responses were funny. |

My family has been using Dario of Paradise Tailors in Summit since the mid seventies. He is truly incredible. He tailored striped wool sweaters that I bought right after my son was born after I had gone down two sizes. A friend of mine used him for a leather coat. His work is beautiful. He is in East Summit on Edison Ave, I believe. He is listed under Paradise Tailors. |

I've used Hediye (Gifted Thimble) and have always found her work to be great. I have tried other tailors etc, and never been as happy as I would have wished. I have used Hediye for about 2-3 years and am delighted. Her number is 973 313 1621. |
