Tailor

The tailors of Doskvol make the shirts, coats, and skirts of Doskvol, often with some extra hidden pockets. Tailors are in high demand, as textiles are not generously produced or shipped. Those that are, are usually snapped up by the wealthy, so whether it be mending a garment for a workman or creating an ornate dress for a noble woman, a tailor never wants for customers.
Prestige: Tailors are a respected folk. Usually, a street or block will have an established tailor whose shop or stall, the residents will rely on. It's not uncommon to see an entire row of shop windows busted out by gangs to prove a point, but a tailor's shop left completely untouched. The one who sews in your secret pockets often comes to mind fondly when getting patted down by the bluecoats.
Accoutrement: Tailors have bolts of cloth, thread, needles, measuring tapes, pins, and molds and mannequins for their wares. Usually, a tailor will operate out of a shop. Tailors will often keep antiseptics on hand as well, for sewing together more than a rent shirt.
Training: Tailoring is a kind of a labor of love. One does not decide to become a tailor for practical purposes, usually. As such, a tailor's training is often less than typical. Tailors have trained themselves, but apprenticeships and assistant positions are all very common. Books and classes are also common.
