Got the message Thursday evening that a friend had passed. (He should have died hereafter; there would have been time for such a word).
Anyway, on Friday, I weigh my options (having gained forty pounds in the time of Covid) as to where I could obtain the suitable garb to let his lovely bride and children know of the regard in which I held their husband and father.
And I needed it by Saturday.
Didn't think that Nieman or Nordstrom would be able to do a less-than-24-hour turnaround.
Then I remembered Top Hat and Tails. Had walked by more than once, thought that they might have something I would like; but hadn't gotten around to stepping in until Friday.
The woman up front was Zoe. She was sympathetic to my plight, and she gave me her undivided attention for as long as it took to get garb close to my non-typical body type.
She chalked it, pined it, and assured me it would be ready on Saturday morning.
Zoe and Horace (the tailor & owner) came through.

P.s., Think global, but if you don't shop local; local won't be there when you need it NOW.
Great! Horace has been around for years, both my sons used him for graduation and still do. We don’t go anywhere else.
I rented a tux from them and was pleased. Nice people. Would use them over one of the big places.
bub,
I would think that my tuxes, as my suits, will no longer fit well.
When another youngster weds, it is Top Hat & Tails, I shall use.
