Tailor??? Do you know of a good Tailor?

kc2

I will be in Delhi and would like to find a good Tailor. I would like to have some clothing made.

A shop with good selection of materials, linen, silk, Acetate and spandex mix.


Thanks!

Usually you will get your cloth at one shop and sometimes they have tailors there but not always. My friend's mom has a tailor shop in Vasant Kunj called Stitch.. specializes in women's traditional wear but she can do other things too... it is just in high demand so you have to wait a bit on your clothes.

As far as shopping, I have heard Lajpat Nagar is good for cloth and I *know* Sarojini Nagar market is good for readymade clothes.

Sarojini Nagar has plenty of tailors. I think there is a dedicated line of shops which does only that. Plus, great bargains!

It depends to some degree on what you want made...for example for formals (through repeated trial and error processes) i never buy cloth at 'just some shop' and stick to something like a Raymonds and then go back to my regular tailor..

kc2 -
most of them tailors are not too good with 'styling' and 'cuts'.
so i'd suggest, you take along a sample of the attire you want made - and he can duplicate it.
they do a darn good job at 'copy stitching'.

Thats a good point, finding a good tailor can take weeks unless one is really lucky, so getting something 'copied' is a good option....unless ofcourse you dont have anything..and need to get something made from scratch..
