WHAT DOES QUALITY MEAN?
QUALITY is a vague term we hear often but let’s break it down to concrete concepts when we talk about vests
- Quality FABRIC – A quality fabric is one that stands the test of time. It will look as good five years from now that it does the day you bought it. It should have a tight weave and hold a press, feel good to the touch, and the print or weave should be pleasing to the eye.
Quality TAILORING – The garment should look as good on the inside as the outside. Stitching and seams should be straight, even , smooth and shouldn’t pull apart after repeated use. Button hole stitching is tight and even. Buttons stay on after repeated use.
- MATCHING OF FABRIC PATTERNS - Stripes, patterns and plaids should line up across the front.
- Quality FIT Garment should be appropriate in length and be not too tight or too loose. This is a subjective issue known only to the wearer; however, we offer a specialized service that customizes your vest so that it fits YOU.
- HARMONY OF THE TOTAL GARMENT- The lining and back should match the front. Too often a standard inexpensive black acetate is placed on the black (since it supposedly won’t clash with any color). However, it often ends up detracting from the total garment. Appropriate buttons should be chosen for the front. Formal wear buttons are different than those for casual wear and most importantly the buttons should add to the beauty of the garment –not detract from it.
WE SPECIALIZE IN HAVING THE PARTS OF THE WHOLE GARMENT LOOK LIKE THEY BELONG TOGETHER.
