All Professionally Made to Order for Quick Shipping

Step into the world of a tailor's shop, where history and art intertwine to create a captivating scene. In "A Cool Customer" from 1871, we catch a glimpse of an era long gone, as men in dapper attire seek the expertise of skilled tailors. The portrait "Portrait of a tailor" by Girolamo Mazzola Bedoli takes us back even further, to the mid-16th century, showcasing the craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined this profession. Traveling forward in time to 1886 Venice, Italy, we witness tailoring as an integral part of European history. Through a digital reproduction of an original 19th-century pattern, we can appreciate how fashion evolved across different regions. Meanwhile, in Washington D. C. , during World War II, Gordon Parks captures moments at Frank's cleaning and pressing establishment. A tailor meticulously checks garments while another skillfully alters them – their dedication evident even amidst wartime chaos. The Salvation Army holds its regular Sunday meeting in San Francisco in 1939; here too is evidence of tailoring's impact on society. Perhaps these gatherings provided solace for those who relied on well-tailored uniforms or sought assistance with clothing needs. However, not all tales from the tailor's shop are solemn affairs. An engraving from Georgian times depicts two red-coat soldiers playfully running off with a tailor's wife – reminding us that humor has always found its place among needles and thread. Similarly mischievous is another engraving from Portsmouth Point in 1831: a girl flirts shamelessly with a soldier while nearby shops bustle with activity. Education also plays its role within this realm as young beginners learn their craft at Dr Barnardo’s Stepney Causeway children’s home in London. The chromolitho image transports us to the Tailor’s school where skills are honed under watchful eyes. Finally, we encounter Mitchell and Hunter, tailors and gentlemen's outfitters in Norwich.
