Bespoke Argyle made in Canada

And don't forget those torso duhickies that the tailor uses to build a model of the person's figure..
My grandmother had one of those, and they can be quite scarry when you wake up and look over at the headless, grid-like torso floating in the room.

Thanks to all. Actually I have had both types done, it was the terminology that had me a bit confused there. We are fortunate to have an excellent, Saville Row trained tailor in town here. I did have some outfits made some 20+ years ago, but the last one was a disaster, as he unfortunately was drunk or had a hangover most of the time.

He seems to have his act together now, and has opened a shop about three blocks or so from where I live. I'll have to drop in and talk to him next time I walk by.

Re. the tailor/dressmaker dummies, the best are actually made to be a perfect replica of the person for whom the clothing is being made. I can certainly see where they could be scary to a kid.
