The Street Side Tailors Of Latur


Through this picture I will tell you a story of another tailor in my area , he has a rented cubicle , and does roaring business ,but he works exclusively for the jean sellers of Bandra Hill Road ..the roadside jean sellers give him old second hand branded jeans , he alters them narrows tapers them ..the kind of jeans you see Miya kids Salman clones wearing them , some of the ladies jeans are altered as shorts and sell like hot pants as hotcakes.

He also alters large size shirts narrowing the sleeves and the bodies that go with the narrow stiletto jeans ,, he in is incapable of altering any other stuff , he refuses work from the locals..

Even on Hill road near the old defunct Bata shop you have a tailor operating from the bakda but our guy beats them all. he has no help...

The jeans sell for Rs 500 onwards , young Muslim boys are employed by the Jean seller on commission , and the Jeans are washed and ironed by a Dhobi in my area , there are two Dhobi guys both are busy with ironing the Jeans shirts ladies tops.. mostly second hand branded.

Chota Mota film designers buy all this for the junior artistes cheap and best....

But the Latur street tailor was promoting tea ...Tata Tea..
