Thanks to one my costumer who address me to your web. The lily I already see make me see the big difference from your article regarding bespoke suit and all the others .
I read the article with pleasure (I am a tailor).
I am 76, I still make a few suits with pleasure. The suit that I make is the one I have always been doing since 1955, that is fully handmade. I started my apprenticeship in 1950 in Agrigento (Siciliy), in 1955 moved to Milano where I had the chance to work for excellent tailoring houses. From 1961 to 68 I worked for my own customers.
In 1968 I emigrated to Canada. In Ontario till 2000 where I continued my work and had many customers.
From 2000 to April 2011 I was in Vancouver B.C. working as master tailor for a large men’s clothing store:
manager the tailor shop, teach apprentice, improve worker in quality and prodution. Fitting and fix difficult defect I loved to sherry my knowledge . It is possible to wrote in Italian? Thanks.

Egregio Mancuso,
Benvenuto. Siete qui tra noi fra amici. Grazie a Costi per suo gentile aiuto. Scrivete quanto volete, noi faremmo i traduzioni.
Da Agrigento a Vancouver, avete fatto qualche kilometri, eh? Una bella storia ed uno che fa piacere a me che vive adesso anche sulla bella isola.
A presto
Michael

Mille grazie al Sig. Costi. per piacere puo' dirmi come fare per publicare foto di lavoro in progresso. Le foto sono meglio di cento parole.
Oggi molti confondono il sarto con un operaio che sa fare alcune riparazione .
Sono disponibile per i lettori di LONDONLOUNGE : mandatemi foto della giacca o pantalone che ha bisogno riparazione e vi rispondero' con le soluzione disegnando la riparazione da farsi
Regards
Pino
I would like to know how to publish pictures of work in progress. A picture is worth more than a hundred words.
Many today mistake a tailor for a manual laborer capable of mending things.
I am available for the readers of the London Lounge: send me pictures of the coat or trousers that need alterations and I'll answer back with the solution, drawing how the alteration should be done.
Regards
Pino
