Checking Fabric in Natural Light - Hoi An
© February 04 2007, Uncornered Market
Dan checks the color of the fabric in natural light. Mao, the tailor on the left, tries to convince him it's a good color for him. Everything always "looks good."
We spent a lot of time in Mao's shop (called Ky Ky) choosing fabrics, getting fittings and refittings. He is a native of Hanoi, but liked Hoi An better and worked hard at a tailor shop to be able to save enough to open his own shop. The tailor shops are open 7 days a week, usually from 8 AM to 10 PM. They work hard...especially for picky customers like Dan : )
