I'm going to ask at brooks bros, and I'm casting around for a seamstress who can do it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189711 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 15:02:18 +0000 biscuitsmom 189711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You might want to ask your local tailor if she does any...I know mine does, although Ive never had it done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189707 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:47:17 +0000 Steph 189707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooks Brothers does custom shirts for men and women and you can choose different collars, sleeve lengths, etc. I have never done it myself, but I think it would be worth checking out. They also have a sale on their custom clothing once or twice a year, so you might want to ask them if one of those is coming up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189694 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:03:45 +0000 Isabel 189694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't help you, but I LOVE that you are a cello ! What a wonderful analogy.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189689 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 13:25:04 +0000 Sihaya 189689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband doesn't easily fit into shirts on the rack because he's very tall. So we are looking at custom shirts from Nordstrom's. They said the prices range from about $80 upwards. I don't know if they have a similar service for women. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189600 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 05:01:49 +0000 Jenava 189600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Or, this little collar peeking out makes me feel faint:</p> <p><a href="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3033827328/tt1035736" rel="nofollow">http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3033827328/tt1035736</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189599 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 04:59:11 +0000 Jenava 189599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>eh, maybe I'll just settle for something more simple.</p> <p>I was inspired by the movie Coco before Chanel. It's about her early start. This little collar looked so chic to me:</p> <p><a href="http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2782169088/tt1035736" rel="nofollow">http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2782169088/tt1035736</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189537 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 02:33:08 +0000 Angie 189537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Etsy is a great place to start. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bee-in-my-bonnet-custom-shirts#post-189497 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 01:31:30 +0000 Jenava 189497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I have decided that I need a white shirt. But, being a pear/hourglass/cello, I find it hard to fit my bust and my waist. Plus I want something really sharp looking. I got this crazy notion for something with a high, victorian men's stand-up turndown round collar and raglan sleeves. Now, I know I can't find this on the shelf, esp. in something that fits me. </p> <p>Has anyone ever had a shirt custom made? Or, does anyone know where I can get one (I was thinking one of those fabulous etsy sellers might accommodate me, but not sure how to start looking).</p> <p>I realize this is probably a completely hair-brained notion. </p>
