I try not to use tailors often unless it's a key piece...tailors are so expensive in America, and they don't necessarily do a good job.<BR/>What I am doing now is to mostly wear skirts, so if they are too big they will just hang on my hips. The best fit pants are from Theory and even Balenciaga's pants need alteration (the tailor told me that Balenciaga wants to make sure 6' girl with a bigger waist can wear the same RTW pants, so they have to make the waist large pants LONG. <BR/>I rarely wear fancy tops as most of them are too large...I just wear a jcrew tank often times with a cardigan. Sweaters are easier to manage, IMHO. <BR/>Suits...have to be tailored...<BR/>Jeans...the only category that is guaranteed to find the best fit. It just takes time.<BR/>So, that's my experience:)Caffeinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16518528142510989588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16524730.post-1152932046748775122006-07-14T22:54:00.000-04:002006-07-14T22:54:00.000-04:00oh my gosh -- i am in the same boat with the small...oh my gosh -- i am in the same boat with the small sizes. i can't believe the new york store only orders 1 of each item in 36! that's crazy! do you have any other tips for acquiring clothes from diff designers in small sizes? do you use tailors often? <BR/><BR/>we need to make a trip to paris...or italy...or better yet, asia probably! <BR/><BR/>but don't worry, i won't compete with you for spring 2007 balenciaga.
