Tailor

29 Jan (Fri) - Went to People's Park alone after work to source for ROM stuff and CNY clothes.

This is really a great place of which I discovered hidden treasures. I managed to find the feathers needed for the dress and a few shops that sell traditional stuff for the customaries.

I went to one of the tailors, showed her the page of my ROM dress and asked for a quote. This fierce and unfriendly auntie gave my $280! Freaking expensive! I suddenly recalled the tailor which the kind Uncle gave me the contacts. Without hesitation, I dialled her number and talked to her for about 10mins!

Yamei auntie said that I could get the satin and chiffon from her or I can choose to buy them myself. I told her that I wanted to buy from the kind Uncle for recommending her to me. After a brief description of the dress I wanted, Yamei auntie told me it will be about $100plus to $200plus.

I will contact her again after CNY and make a trip to her house. Yea, she does the tailoring at her own house. I feel quite comfortable talking to her so I guess she would be a good choice!
