First Mohan’s admits to Tax Evasion…now Astor & Black Files Chapter 7

By September 4, 2013One Comment

Unfortunately, a few Custom Clothiers have encountered some difficult times of late.

It seems that some custom clothiers who have tried to grow or scale their businesses, have just hit a wall.  Perhaps it is the nature of the Custom Clothing Dynamic…that special relationship between a customer and his/her personal clothing adviser.  I know my customers grow to rely upon me for advice whether that advice be in the form of what style suit to add this season, what type sport coat to add to their wardrobe to achieve their unique and personal attire goals, or just where to turn for an accessory.

Regardless of why some custom clothiers fail as they try to expand, there are options for those who had used the services of failed custom clothiers.  Here are two articles reported in the Columbus Dispatch and New York Post that provide more detail about these failures:
