“As cool autumn sets in, lots of people are coming to our tailor shop,” said Kim Sun Yong, manageress of the Pothonggang District general tailor shop in Pyongyang.
The shop has newly designed a dozen kinds of autumn wear, which are now displayed there for sale.
Designers came up with new styles of clothing while researching into the attire of people and browsing the dress design and technical service system and other sites.
They held presentations to turn the new clothing styles into designs by improving the form, colour and decoration in a fresh and unique way.
“The dresses which are made by pulling our wits and ideas are then displayed in the sample room, where customers choose the style of clothing that suits their taste and place an order,” said Choe Kyong Hwa, a cutter at the tailor shop.
Designer Ri Song Mi is fairly good at selecting the quality and colour of the material that suit the age, job, figure and complexion of customers.
Not only young customers but also the middle-aged like bright colours as they make them look younger, said Ri, adding she created new designs to meet the demand.
The most popular among the designs are a cross-striped men’s suit with long narrow lapels, a women’s suit with short sleeves and a stand-up collar with decorations and various kinds of dresses in different colours.
Besides, those embellished with flower patterns and lace trimming are also much sought-after.
The shop does not make two clothes with the same design.
They readily grasp the requirements of customers and never fail to fulfil their orders, thus attracting an increasing number of regular customers.
