Hong Kong Tailor offers Special Rate to 2004 Reunion Classes |
|
Over the past several years a number of you have had the pleasure of working with Michael Zee, the owner or the Hong Kong custom tailor "Tak Tak". Lori and I met Michael when we were at a conference in Hong Kong at the then Regent (now Intercontinental) hotel. Michael had a shop in the hotel and we tried the custom tailor thing. The quality was very high and the prices quite reasonable for such high-quality custom work. For those who know me, you realize that I have certain deficiencies in the fashion/wardrobe area (I am a devout customer of Land's End mail order) but I have found Michael's shirts and pants to actually fit, wear well, and look great. Michael does a US tour every summer and visits 15 or so cities. The last few years I have sent announcements out for this and a number of classmates have taken advantage of his visits. In fact, a group of us met with him 2 summers ago then all went out to chinatown in Boston for a nice feast and brought Michael along. Michael has been very appreciative of this connection with our class and offers classmates a very nice discount on the work. Michael's summer tour is later in the summer (July) but we thought it would be fun to invite him to join us for the reunion. He agreed, and is making a special trip for us. He will be at the Inn at Harvard over the weekend, and on Saturday afternoon will be at the Dillon Fieldhouse right before and during our BBQ lunch (11:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.) If you are interested in meeting Michael, looking at more fabrics than you can imagine, and discussing what he can do for you (men's and women's clothes) you can make an appointment with him for any time during his visit. Usually about 30 minutes is enough. You can bring any clothing (or pictures of styles) you'd like to have him copy; he has standard designs as well. I have also mentioned this to the 5th and 10th reunions so I suspect he'll be pretty busy for the weekend. He can be contacted directly at michzee8@hotmail.com and his shop's website is www.taktaktailor.com. I'd recommend setting up an appointment well before you come into Cambridge. Let me know if you have any questions.Jeff Behrens jeff.behrens@mindshift.com
