Wynyard Quarter's new luxury tailor shop is open, offering the best quality alterations, dry cleaning and luxury bespoke garments.

Recently returning from New York, owner and operator Simon Jacobs honed his craft stitching perfect jeans and suits, working as the in-house tailor for Turnbull and Asser and was recently the tailor behind the suits worn by Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire in the blockbuster film The Great Gatsby.

Persistent dedication to the craft lead to working many high end photo campaigns, runway shows for NY Fashion Week, making Jacobs one of the best well-rounded young tailors, who is now carrying the torch to keep the industry vibrant and thriving.
