Anybody know a good tailor/seamstress in Hefei?
« on: May 02, 2008, 07:25:45 am »

Hi all, names Craig from South africa.

I'm 2 metres (6.5") and need my clothes made, so if you've heard of a tailor/seamstress let me know!

Bye

We've had this problem befeore.
All I can find out is that you can find people to alter but not tailor.
Better chance in NanJing.

I have mentioned something about large size clothes in another thread before, but I am not sure if it was deleted with the old sheet.

I am about 6'4", and quite large.  I get all my clothes from a small little place near "man street".  To get there is a little tricky.  The best way I can tell you is that its the first or second alley west of Jin Zhai Rd, off of Chang Jiang Rd, near the China Post there.  Walk a little bit on that alley until you hit a small ramp.  From there, turn left and then you can take a look around to find two openings to basement apartments which hold these big size clothes that I am talking about.  And they are quite cheap as well.  Around 35RMB for a shirt/t-shirt.

Yeah, giving directions is not what I do best.  But you Aussie Mike.....map to the dentist in Hu Po from before.....priceless. :)  I think that was erased as well.  Too bad.

Hi Mike, thanks for getting back to me. I sent you a text message, you get it?

My school (Aston) wants too find out more about the ISL English Course (the one we spoke of at the Expo). Like do we need to get a certification? Any requirements etc. Let me know thanks!
