Make it personal without making it generic
Design around the exact item carried and whether the recipient reaches while standing, seated, or using a mobility aid.
Give a paper pocket template sized to the intended object with the fitting invitation attached.
Check the practical fit
- Space
- The gift changes an existing garment and creates no separate storage requirement.
- Skill
- A skilled tailor should assess load-bearing seams, lining, and fabric behavior.
- Maintenance
- Care instructions should remain compatible with the original garment and new materials.
- Accessibility
- Test reach, hand strength, tactile identification, closure force, and one-handed use as relevant.
- Sustainability
- A useful alteration can keep a favored garment in rotation longer.
- Timing
- Allow a fitting, mock-up decision, alteration, and final check rather than promising same-day work.
What to investigate
