The Man Behind the Machine

MD Rumel was inspired by his family to pursue tailoring, and he has been at the machine since he was seventeen. He entered the trade full time in 2011, and by 2016 he had the skill and the following to open his own atelier in Green Point.

Today The Tailor Man is a Green Point local with an international customer base, serving both on the same promise it opened on: garments that look sharp, fit perfectly and come back fast.

What the Atelier Offers

Four things, done properly, with a fast turnaround.

Tailor-Made Suits

A suit built around your body and your taste, from fabric selection to final fitting. Wide fabric and style options, every detail crafted for a special event or for every working day.

Ladies Garments

Custom suits, dresses and skirts for women, from classic to contemporary. Cut to your measurements, in your fabric, so you look and feel your best.

Suit and Dress Alterations

Hemming, taking in, letting out, reshaping a jacket or a dress. A perfect fit for garments you already own, for men and for women.

Garment Repairs

Tears, holes and worn seams on suits, pants, shirts and dresses, repaired so the garment keeps earning its place in your wardrobe.
