The TailorThis shop is located in the Hyatt Regency shopping arcade and had a nice atmosphere about it. It had been reviewed in the '99 Fodors China guidebook, a copy of which is always handy in the shop. Jantzen Wong (pictured with me below) seemd to manage the shop. |

After I selected a fine Italian wool, and a traditional silk lapel style dinner jacket, the next step was to be measured. Jantzen recorded all of my measurments and then Vincent, one of the actual tailors, came in to verify the dimensions. |

Later the same day I returned to the shop and saw
the skeleton of my coat. One sleeve was basted in place, the lining was loosely
tacked in and pins and loose stitches were everywhere. But with precision and skill Vincent carefully checked all the critical measurement points. |
