Tokyo Tailors
Hello everyone. I’d like to ask, if by chance, anyone knows of great tailors in Tokyo that are okay with working with not-quite-Japanese-fluent clients with the assistance of phone translation. The question really places most of focus on recommendation for great tailors, as virtually everyone here is so uncommonly kind and understanding that they never take umbrage with the language barrier, so I don’t expect any tailor to take issue with phone as a middleperson. However, since tailoring involves a bit more communication and precision, it would be nice to know in advance that the tailor is okay with the language barrier. I don’t wish to be an imposition for something this involved.
Also, I was recommended FORMi for tailoring from a shop I was at recently. They look quite good, but they have 19 shops in Tokyo, so if any one branch is better than the others, I’d love to know. Some, like the one in Ginza Six, could be better than their other branches, since they may have higher standards to fit in in that place.
Thank you.

Maruyama Keita: New or Old Design
Hello everyone.
I’d like to ask if the illustration on this tin (of cookies) is a new illustration from Maruyama Keita, or an existing design, perhaps from his textile designs or clothing? Saw it in-store last night and was taken aback by how beautiful it is. If it exists on other creations, I would love to know about it them, as I’m inclined to buy these cookies, even though I don’t want the cookies.
