Re: Bespoke For Hard Times
Good idea- but Sexton seems to be the only one mentioned who does a decent job.
Any tips for a top notch women's bespoke tailor here in the US (or someone who travels)?
The third lady mentioned's stuff looks as badly fitted as any RTW garbage out there. 
Good avatar.

Re: Bespoke For Hard Times
As far as travelling women's tailors go, W.W. Chan has a woman's tailor, Danny Chen I think his name is, accompany Patrick Chu, their men's tailor, on his thrice yearly tours of the USA. There was bunch of noisy, garrulous women in the hotel room at the time of my last appointment. They were so damn distracting it put me in a bad mood, and I only bought one jacket instead of the two I had planned on!

I think if you go to wwchan.com or just do a web search on "W.W. Chan Tailors," you can bring up their website with full contact info.
