One way to describe the tailoring business right now, and forgive the pun here, is that it's feeling some strain at the seams.
The number of tailors in this country is down about 30 percent over the last decade, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Part of that is pretty simple.
A lot of tailors are aging out of the business.
But demand is still strong.
Turns out people still need pants hemmed and waistlines taken in.
And that brings us to the next installment of our series, My Economy.
My name is Daisy Camarena.
We work in an alteration shop called DP Pros.
My sister and I are the ones who found it six years ago.
I was working in an alteration shop and we just realized alteration had like a big gap.
And then we just decided, hey, I think we can do this.
We have been doing this for 20 years.
We know how to sew.
We know how garment work, measurement, pattern.
So I think it's time.
The demand of clothes and alteration and people wanting to feel good and look good is increasing.
However, hey, we don't have very many business are closing.
You know, I saw that we bought this business from old people to old couple.
They were 60 years old.
