Friday was a long day. I was up at 4, to be in London for half 6, for a meeting I will be attending with Gabe. The good this about this placement is that not only am I doing the practice side, so hand finishing, learning to pattern cut, and also doing the measuring of clients, I am also learning about the business side aswell, which I am finding very interesting, and useful. I am learning about the accounts, and the turnovers and profits. The knowledge that I am gaining through working with OH is really useful stuff, that will help me in the future.

Once the meeting was over, I then went back to the studio while gabe went to a potential client. While at the studio I met with Mr Irdale for his first fit. This is to check the fit, and make any alterations that are required for the suit. Mr Irdale was one of my clients that I have looked after whilst working for OH. There was very little alterations needed within the suit, the only thing that needed changing was to remove slight drape in the back, other than that the client and I were very pleased :D
I also had Dave Berry in in the afternoon to try on a suit that I had also measured him for and then helped in the process of making the suit. The problem that He had was that he wanted the trouser leg to be slimed slightly, but otherwise he really liked the suit, and is happy with the work I am putting into OH.
