How To Find A Tailor You Can TRUST? | RMRS Style Videos
About this video
Centeno addresses common frustrations with tailors and seamstresses by teaching how to communicate effectively with clothing professionals. He explains that most tailoring mistakes stem from miscommunication and provides practical strategies to ensure custom clothing turns out as intended while maintaining a positive relationship with the tailor.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that getting all tailor instructions in writing in one document—such as a Google Doc or organized form—prevents confusion and miscommunication
- Centeno recommends having the tailor sketch out or send back confirmation of their understanding before beginning work, and taking a photo of the written agreement for your records
- Centeno advises starting with a single item on a first order with a new tailor rather than multiple pieces, making it easier to address any issues
- Centeno recommends checking the tailor’s return and refund policy before paying, as this reflects whether they stand behind their work
