Do you have a tailor? If not, you may want to consider finding and using one. Tailoring a quality piece of clothing to fit once again can be a lot less expensive than buying a new outfit. And it's better for the environment, too.
The first Wednesday in June is "National Tailor's Day." It's a day to show your appreciation for the tailor you already have or the perfect day to find a new one.
Just for fun, here are some tailoring terms you may not be familiar with:
* Gorge: The point where the collar is attached to the lapel
* Baste: Sewing a garment loosely to assemble
* Scye: The armhole
* Bespoke: Made to a customer's specific requirements
