EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling workshop of skilled tailors in the 1960s. In this photo print, a group of middle-aged men can be seen hard at work, surrounded by bolts of fabric and sewing machines. The air is filled with the sound of chatter and the hum of industry as these craftsmen meticulously craft garments with precision and care. One tailor stands proudly beside a finished coat displayed on a dummy, showcasing their handiwork for all to see. His shirt sleeves are rolled up, revealing years of experience etched into his weathered hands. A tape measure hangs casually around his neck, a symbol of his expertise in measuring and cutting fabrics with accuracy. The camaraderie amongst this group is evident as they smile warmly at each other, united by their shared passion for tailoring. Each man wears an apron over his clothes, protecting them from stray threads and pins that litter the workshop floor. This snapshot captures a moment frozen in time - a glimpse into the history of craftsmanship and dedication that defined the rag trade industry during this era. It serves as a reminder of the artistry and skill required to create bespoke garments that stand the test of time.
