Hi all

I have two perfect pairs of trousers I want copied as I cant buy them anymore. Can anyone out there recommend a tailor in Adelaide who could use mine as a template and make a few copies?

I've never gone to a tailor before so any advice appreciated!

I suspect I will walk in there for trousers and come out with 5 new suits....but anyway...I'm all ears if anyone has suggestions.

try suitshop.com.au

Tailers trained by Patrick Johnson, had my wedding tux made by him which came out very nicely. Haven't purchased anything from one of his trained counterparts but it's significantly cheaper starting at $750.

There website seems to be down so maybe call 61 2 9966 7548 (Patrick Johnson) to see if they have a guy in Adelaide. If you have a bigger budget maybe try him, he would come to you i think.

If you are going to buy 2 trousers and 5 suits, jump on a plane to Shanghai
I have a great tailor there and the difference in price will cover the airfare and accommodation :D
