i think so, fortunato tailors on pico and prosser, do you know it? my friend rec'd him and i took 3 pieces in about a week ago so i'm going to go pick them up sometime this week and hopefully they'll be good and then i'll give him the skirt. the prob w/ the skirt as is is that it LONG, it reaches mid calf on me right now. but i don't want to just hem it because i feel like some of the shape might be lost. hopefully, he can figure something out. *crossing fingers*

esquiress, don't worry because a good tailor can do anything. I once had a pair of pants taken in at the waist, rear, and thighs. He shaped them perfectly. It felt like what it must be to have couture clothing.

I hope you will let us see you in the outfit.

if you're still interested, i saw the skirt at the at the Nordstrom at the Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego ... i'm not sure if they have anything smaller than a 4, but they had several of them in stock. just fyi.
