I Need A Custom Robe Made Where do I Go to get this done?

• I want to get my boyfriend a new bathrobe the one he has is so old and warn out and he will not get rid of it! untill he gets a new one he likes better... the issue is he wants a velour bathrobe like the one he has now. I dont know what stores to find one in!?????????? If i cant find one in a store already made I want to get a custom one made so for his birthday i want to pick out the fabric buy it and take it to a dress maker or tailoring place to get it done i have no idea even where to begin on how im going to do this..... so i want to know a place where i can get a custom robe done if i bring in the fabric i want and the sizing ect.... I need a place where they do custom robes and i bring in the material and ideas of what i want.... Needs to be somewhere in Mississauga ON Brampton ON. Also does anyone know an estimation in price if i get it custom made? THANKS.

• Answer:

  I'd say your best bet is to ask at the store where you buy the fabric to see if they know any good sewists (seamstress etc) who could make it up for you. You could also ask at a tailoring and alterations place near you (sometimes they're combined with dry cleaning places). As for how much it's likely to cost, custom made stuff is more expensive than storebought clothing which tends to be sewn in foreign countries where people are severely underpaid for the work. So whatever he paid for the one he has now, expect to pay significantly more for the handsewn one. You may want to get several estimates and decide which one you'd rather go with.
