Day H) The Relevance of Tailoring Design in the 21st C

High armhole – seeing a perfect armhole is 1st class and rare. This allows a arm movement that has a charm of its own. Note the completed chest shape. This is something you can expect to do on each clients’ second suit, if they are thin. It’s good to see their favorite jacket to check the bicep width and where the armhole sits, in order to reduce and raise armhole.

Race is irrelevant when Everyman is your market, Clothing is a language of its own richness. Your clients may even overcome biases once they appreciate the language barrier that immigrants have had to go through. I just bought a translator ear piece that allows me 20 languages!

Mens Issues are relevant today. since the birth control pill are on a new journey that in some instances may be undermining fatherhood and self esteem. More women are taking control of their lives that replace needing men. In some respects, this is good, but men need to motivate themselves to be more than sensitive, but strong that appeals to women’s needs.

TailoringDesigners that share the “richness” of this men’s tradition. Many rich are rich because they sell to the rich and hire the poor. Today self branding and digital decentralization will allow talent to capitalize.TailoringDesigners have the riches of seeing fit and the history of classic quality that give men a monumental perspective of what they thought was superficial. TD can offer arguably give any man, rich or poor the best suit in the world. What does this mean? How is it relevant? In a world of poorly dressed billionaires, there is a message that is sad but indicates and opportunity to give them something they have not had before of value because they feel better about the transaction. They may even feel like they are supporting a tailor rather than a retailor. This is relevant. This is what I call out of 4 economic categories, the poor poor, the rich poor, the poor rich and the rich rich. Its relevant to have balance of qualities not quantity of stuff. This is relevant culturally for change in a movement called minimalism.

Today TD is relevant as self employment and branding is competitive. Creating a new company is better than looking and filling a job. A job slot that many others could do. It is become classic, self employment, where feeling good, being your best and looking good is an enjoyable full-time job. You learn to develop a liking for people. Of course you have to develop a niche notch-up lifestyle, but thats’ not so bad a place to start from. From there be it a community center, a sports activity or even a job inside where suits are respectable, you can start as the go-to -tailor in that office , area, or city.

Fun and creative stepping up a notch, is relevant as an important part of being independent.

Aesthetics is relevant as wealth is no good if you are not happy with your environment. This is about harmony between your habits and your area of influence. About what’s in yours and your clients closet . Aesthetics is the study of our surroundings. It is how humans choose and arrange things, from their room(s) to their taste, habits , This includes wardrobes. Asians call it this philosophy Feng Shuai. Once you can see color, texture, depth (sculpted shape) and detail , you will be able to analyze, choose and appreciate the world of art and the things around you better. A little effort will affect your personal culture and sense of having harmony, negative space, minimalism and all things and values in priority in its place. This is a type of richness, that often the wealthy and newly rich miss. They continuously hire designers to renovate, often because they can and because they cannot balance what’s inside them with their environmental needs. Renovations are often another way of consumption and dissatisfaction. Often they dont have the scope to be creative. When one goes through the process of creating something rather than buying what’s in style or in their face, they appreciate and maintain it longer. TD’s liberate men from consumer brands and dissatisfaction.

Automation of old jobs makes Self Employment Relevant.

As monotonous old jobs decline with automation, being in the design and service industry maintains a comfortable edge. This makes a creative career with your reputation a relevant goal. Often the service industry is seen to add to the end price, but TD cuts out the overhead for a 21st C model, giving a TD the power to charge a little or a lot just to impress a client.

Often retail advertising adds cost to the consumer. So TD is relevant, as Suitstyler does the advertising and promotion. Hi end status type promotion for retail competes with other ready mades. This is highly inefficient as the retail mark up indicates. Once TD’s show they can be better than clients past tailors, they become relevant as real tailors and real or bespoke fit has always been.

Offering whole packages is also relevant in a world of mass production, personalization is rare, let alone the practical value and deals in a packages.

A TD’s confidence and demeanor is priceless and relevant in a world of salesmen that have their hands tied to inventory and their alterationists skills and time limitations.

Being able to develop a side gig is relevant today for the underemployed and those unhappy with their work. Looking good with your side gig is smart.

One obstacle designers get from others is dressing is not relevant. Not true. Perhaps in their world no one is dressing. So stepping out of their their shell may take courage. Ironically good dressing is a shell that says success, at least in its fit. Success always expands their world with confidence in their appreciation of people.

Yes some are working from home and need not dress. This is static. Dynamic people change their views and challenge themselves. As humans are herd animals, even homeworking gets boring and demands socializing. Offices with a long term vision, know this and are having more people using a hybrid system. So change inspires change and tailoring essentially is attractive for men that see the beauty of doing something they believe in.

Relevant for value ; In the post pandemic world, including efficiency of transit without gas, more family time from working at home and new health habits for long term values. Designers that invest in their health, encompass dressing “to” respect create daily value without even making a sale.

Understanding Quality is always smart and Relevant. More people have access to consumer sites online. But people are dressing like their fathers did in the 20th C or worse not at all. A tailoring designer will learn about the qualities of different cloth weaves and fibers. He may even learn from his clients. As a TD you will develop a feel for fabrics and learn to upgrade clients to better fabrics. This makes all the difference then prospects ask how much, you can ask “How Good?” Get your books to their office to let them feel!

Relevant as TD has a long term opportunity for investment in a work live studio.

Post Pandemic; health is more relevant than ever before. Weight loss clients are a huge potential market relevance. There is new science that shows working out is not always the solution. Yes, men think it’s all about money and muscle, but it is actually about being limber and having consistent energy. Musclemen are the reaction to attractive women. Reaction is carnal and not cerebral. Science in Oxford university shows HITT training is now old news as “recover in between exercise is key to lowering cortisol or What could be more relevant, today in our prediabetes world. I had two clients who needed much of their clothing altered due to weight loss of 30 pounds each on a Keto diet. This sale netted about $600 each. They didn’t have to go shopping nor throw away their collection. There is no better time to meet suspects to offer alterations when they bite the keto bullet to get the body and energy they want. It’s a good idea to coffer support to a suspect who wants guidance in weight loss and self-esteem. Often letting them know it’s not a big thing and they would not be the first to use a 5-prong approach to enjoy the power they get without the additional weight. sIt all starts with visualization and empowering them to have you, their guide to make them keep their promise to themselves. Show them a great cloth great cloth and offer an opportune price will make you their sponsor, provided they reach their deadline. This is not a difficult thing with conservative deadlines. Encourage them to leave a deposit that is a little uncomfortable and simultaneously serious. Be their partner in crime. How we do this will be discussed on a webinar. As a supporting TD, for humor and confidence, you will have a loyal friend. In a world of fast rising pre-diabetes men are starting to take weight loss seriously. You see most foods today are not fresh, but are processed. This is a big deal due to lack of planning until one is too hangry. Processed foods are engineered to be tasty in an unnatural way, using processed fats and sugars to substitute for freshness and protein. Carbs are essentially sugar in various forms that are sold to us to create satisfaction from poor salads and proteins. They are highly addictive and lead to dopamine degradation and worse habits. The streets are full of fools who have not burnt off their sugars, and are still fatty in their livers, a more dangerous issue as toxins can move on the brain where depression can result from years of subtle brain stress via inflammation, here sugars further support inflammation and bi-polar behavior.

TD’s have a stake in prospects weight goals. With Suitstyler Campaign emails and Weight Loss Promotions items, you can gain contacts interest in a meeting for their bright future interests. Here a TD can have agreement to support a prospects agenda for desired weight. Designers as partners & confidante, can encourage and with the help of written endorsements from their past clients who also may have lost 5- 15 pounds. or more. The client has to be ready after you have established yourself as a vehicle and guide. It’s up to the TD to suggest and evoke “suggestion” subconsciously. Succeed by holding them to their” breaking out the old mold of habits. There are plenty of youtube videos to support as well from exercise to diets that are about understanding foods to psychology. There has never been a better time in the modern health dilemma to get in shape without shame and guilt. Then being in touch at their request for support as a clothing confidence coach. As its suggested initially, to be a free service, you can build rapport and a reputation much like a fitness coach with increased charges. This is encouragement to be fit yourself and tell your story about weight loss. The measurements taken with the order will be made according to the clients commitment to their request to have the waist measure cut. If they dont lose that weight make it, they can still have it let out up to 2 “. Or measure conservatively so you just need to take it in a little if he fails. He has committed to himself with your support so at worst outcome he will have a tension wrinkle at the jacket waist. This goes far beyond any retailor sales or tailors service. So their endorsements are gold and relevant in todays overweight consumer world.

A TD is relevant as a Personal Clothing Coach

When you help men to look positive and to expand their area of influence, by reducing their area of concern about things they cant change, everything will change for them. Just the suggestion of being dynamic will appeal to many men. Once a TD shows his mettle and skills in creating the worlds best (for less) you can support them in that spiritual dimension. A TD’s job is to move their clients sartorial perception up a notch through a various ways .

TD is the missing link between the old bespoke tailor shop of the 17-19th C and the ready made suit . This is hugely relevant in an world of mass production. Designers promoting online standards with Planet-tailored will prompt Google SEo to offer it to more people before they buy. Once bespoke fit becomes popular this can inspire more hand suitmakers and pant makers to train for local direct consumption. A break from the long distance inefficient ecosphere of supply chains. Once this happens, pride will prevails and the old craft of on premise suit and shirt making will come back, maximizing employment in the craft.

The idea of being self employed or being a humble craftsman will once again balance the digital delirium that is affecting our vicarious virtual world. TD career is the smart alternative to taking 5 years to learn how to become a suit-maker, pant maker or cutter. Your targets are successful men or success desirous males with whom you can help anchor their goals. Prompt them to stay away from shopping and invest in themselves with you as their tailor later. They have it made rather than fight with the retailor for alterations each time over and over. Although with Planet-tailored.com, it’s easy to not pay a balance unless its done right. Planet-tailored.com review capability can have your back when the merchant is aware that you know the site. You can make a review, then uploading pictures and tell your story. This capability is unprecedented and relevant for making retailors upgrade their standards.

Relevant as TD will serve far more men than an simple bespoke tailors whose numbers are dwindling . TD’s support their prospects inner qualities with coaching and conscientiousness. Personalized suits take personal low overhead service..

Relevant Tailoring Design is quicker & easier to learn than pant or jacket-making.

They each are different talents needed for tailoring design or garment making. The tailor has far more patience. He is hardworking in a different way. His skills are not about listening, but about sewing, shaping a sequence of cloth layering and construction that is purely manual. A TD is more about fit, finish and satisfaction, listening, communication and data keeping.

Hand tailoring is mostly for those that order last minute and dont have price as an object. A TD prompts contacts to think ahead

Tailoring design for most smart men, will create a revival of how gentlemen’s build rather than replace wardrobes. Those that know who they are, think ahead. Suitstyler.com made to measure service will compete with both ready made and made on premise. This is relevant, in a world of changing sources. TD’s can make a suit like a hand tailored one, if measured right and shaped right. When the first suit is successful and the client has been prompting of the wardrobe package possibilities, a return call will be in order in a month or two. The wardrobe package is a master stroke for mens shopping and therefore relevant.

Relevant is Well dressed clients that advertise and refer for you.

If you are well dressed, well spoken your ow overhead career is relevant in a world of online order taking with zero personal service. Online brands are hit and miss for service while tailoring designers will have a higher success rate as more and more men see real fit and realize wrinkles dont cut it.

You can be their Friend in the business. By providing fresh eyes, while servicing their existing wardrobe is only available with wardrobe consultants, who rarely do mtm. When you get them to realize their image is a personal perk that pays off in short and long term dividends you will have a friend. This $4000 status of a proper fitting suit is powerful when the wearer shows some confidence.

Critical Thinking is relevant. With social media, their are two types of people , critical thinkers who research and ask questions, and those that don’t do either. Seeing a well tailored suit for the first time as a craft rather than a size, is creative thinking, not just consumer expectation.

Bespoke Fit puts men on an equal playing field in a dressed meeting, establishments, events or even on the street. However brief your meeting, your great tailored fit like a memorable picture is worth a 1000 words. If not exclamatory, it’s effect can be subconscious. It’s strong sculpted form becomes the frame for one’s words and presence. This is a chance to express “your people talents” with a generous confidence in supporting their influence. Your critical thinking on their last tailor’s indifference, will ring in their minds. Critical thinking in an world of wok is relevant.

Warren Buffet’s Philosophy is Relevant,

One of the worlds richest , most admired, most simple and fundamental billionaires says,” a mans success is not about the size of his bank account, but about the amount of people that love him”. More than the boring logic of dressing for occasions, a man should be creative and dress “to respect” others. To show spirit himself rather than be a ghost. The more days dressing up and down, the better. It’s a TD’s job to get men to Revel without a cause and create rapport. Rapport can lead to more profound things. Anyone that needs to know why you are dressed, gets a smile and a ” I am? Or “I am meeting an important person today!” ( as everyone you meet is important) Any further questions can be dodged with a return reply about them. Then you are creating relevant rapport .

Dressing past reason because it feels good, need be the only reason. To many men are stuck in maslovs lowest level of need, that is utility. In a freer lifestyle you can design good clothing that you can wear anywhere, and as smart men do, enjoy it by not associating it with work. In fact realizing that your self esteem is one reason to lead the change. In fact adaptation is in our DNA as well as overcoming fear, often the base of change and learning. Its nothing to dress and its everything when you enjoy your new skills. Dressing up casual clothing and dressing down dressier garments. If you never dressed your personality will carry you when you do dress its creme on the cake. But how you dress gives you more confidence and that is what a tailoring designer can offer. With huge personality you could do business in your pajamas like Picasso did. But this is exceptional. Maybe Elon Musk could do so someday when Mars , Cyber Truck and the war ends. Gentlemen are generous and smart. So they dress for visual generosity that prompts their demeanor and attractiveness. Dressing neutral and not being present is insipid and dull and safe for little boys. Dressing adds a facet to the rich complexity that is your life force. This adds points to your image as a gentleman, is that relevant?

Support Men’s Self Esteem

This is important as self-esteem leads to motivation. Most men don’t know the ritual setting goals and of celebrating success. AT best this is a private affair, and only close friends will share. Often this is due to them having the impostor syndrome. Anyone can be encouraged by being able to imagine a” S.M.A.R.T. Goal “(Smart, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely goals).Then to plan and share the celebration with those that matter. It’s relevant, enjoyable public relations.
