Are French tailors so useless, or...


Recommended Posts

does he simply think it is good to look to look like an unkempt baboon?

Just look at the foto of Mr Hollande in the picture in the article below and please, please, send him the name of a decent tailor because he cannot go on living out of the charity box:

IMO it might be the long lunches which have caused the weight gain; which, in turn, is leading to extreme pressure on certain areas of his attire which contribute to the overall lumpy effect.

In other words he has got chunkier and the suit cannot cope with the strain.

And yet . . . the only phrase that my otherwise non-English-speaking French friends can trot out is: "My tailor eez reech" (presumably their equivalent to our universal French phrase: "La plume de ma tante").  

Maybe, therefore, French tailors are SO expensive that a meagre presidential salary does not permit M Hollande to employ one.  [;-)]
