Xana's designs

Spotting genuine tailoring skill from distance is difficult—the problem is that bad alterations often aren't obvious until you're wearing the garment. A seam that pulls slightly, a hem that's not perfectly level, or stitching that's visibly hand-done when it should be machine-work reveals itself only in wear. Experience shows in the details: understanding how to preserve the original construction while making changes, knowing which alterations are possible and which will wreck a garment, and getting proportions right without adjusting beyond what the piece can support. Xana's Designs demonstrates this kind of competence through consistent work that lasts—seams that don't pucker, hems that lie flat, and garments that actually fit better after alteration than they did before.
