Be sure to know standard technical and objective standards for creating garments. Acceptable standards of time and cost may be variable from one company to the next"”mention these if appropriate. You can move the conversation to demonstrate your values. Beware of focusing on the negative. Mention it, but point out the upsides.

"A bad tailor makes whatever it is that he's used to making for everyone else. A good tailor makes the customer happy and self-assured. You have to make the garments as quickly as you can without making mistakes. David Brown in downtown produces poorly fitting suits, but he does have good prices. Duskers uptown is good because they provide good fitting suits and great customer service at a reasonable price."
