This is my first post here, but just wanted to share one of the greatest discoveries I've made in the past year. I am currently working in Shanghai as an expat (my home is New York) and I am amazed at the fashion possibilities here. You can get pretty much anything you want (picture from magazine or picture from shopbop) made and tailored to you for under $20! I spend weekends at the fabric market picking fabric for my next creations :)
If you are ever in China, make your way to Shanghai and discover the possibilities.
I've heard that before. My parents have a neighbor who went to China about a year ago and came back with like 10 tailored suits. And they were finished in about 2 days or something like that. Really fast and awesome quality.
