when it comes to your clothing…THE most important thing is fit…hands down…but many women struggle with that little number on the tag…the size…and i am here to tell you…the numbers on the tags have NO importance…and please…do repeat that…over and over…until you fully believe it…
let’s forget about the fact that every designer and manufacturer cuts clothes differently…and that in itself creates different sizes for one person…you may also range in sizes just based on where you shop…so when you are in a store…take in a few sizes…and really look at how the clothing looks on you…i’ve seen it over and over…a client puts on the size that she “thinks” she is…or “wants” to be…or “used” to be…and it is not laying right…pulling…just not fitting right…then on my persistance…we go up a size…and the client looks thinner…how does that happen? FIT! when garments fit properly…you will always look better…no question…buy clothes that fit…not that you hope to squeeze into next summer or that are too loose to flatter your figure…because…just as clothes that are tight fitting don’t do you justice…wearing clothes that are too big on you…have the same result…
which brings me to my next point…a tailor…something every man & woman should have…and for the most part…most men understand when shopping that they will need their clothes altered…women have a harder time…i mean…if you look at all the different shapes & sizes of people in this world…how do you think that one dress at size 8 will fit so many? it just can’t be…
the minor cost spent on a tailor…will provide a major benefit…FIT! a little nip & tuck with your clothing can make ALL the difference in making a piece of clothing go from just ok to perfection…we are far better served by fewer clothes that fit impeccably than lots of items that don’t quite work…so go ahead…let your tailor work their magic…and people will wonder how you always manage to look so fabulous…
