Tying The Knot in Jamaica: Suit Up!

In Jamaica, the typical male wedding attire of choice is a suit or a variation of it. Getting the fit right is critical and something many men only realise when the pictures are released, or even earlier, when the person whose opinion they value sees them and is less than impressed. An ill-fitting suit does wonderful work at highlighting and showcasing body imperfections, whereas a well fitted suit flatters the body and the wearer has a certain dignified air about him or her.

Damage Repair
If it rips, don't toss it, let the team at JJ's Tailoring assess it. The skilled tailors at JJ's Tailoring have saved items of clothing the owner and even seamstresses and other tailors have deemed irreparable. Before turning a ripped item of clothing into a dusting cloth visit shop number 13 at Red Hills Mall.



A pair of jeans pants had a large rip. The JJ's Tailoring Team repaired the pair of pants, which the owner had deemed irreparable due to how wide and long the rip was. The stitched are is exactly 10 inches long and the stitches are barely visible.
