Silk shirt copy

 My client had a 20+ year old silk shirt she got at Frederick and Nelson. She had me copy it in new silk, 3X.  I made it to match exactly. It was a little tough because the new silk was a little stiffer than her 20 year old silk but they turned out beautifully.

Unique alteration

This was a first.  My client really like this brand of men's briefs but there is too much room in certain places (see photo of grey pair). He had me alter them so they fit better.  And they do!  This is not the kind of alteration you take to the cleaners.  Glad I could help him.
