A regular store visitor has been eyeing off the only Rex Rex hoody left after winter on our end of season sale rack for the last couple of days............she just loved the colors and textile combinations, the style was just perfect for keeping out that winter chill for her Christmas vacation abroad – the only problem, it was a gents size XL and she is normally a ladies extra small.
At the end of the day she just could not help herself – this Rex Rex hoody was going to a good home with a detour via the tailor to be adjusted to fit just right........some items just talk and become MUST HAVES........even better if they are on the sale rack!!!!

1930's
The concept of what we do at handcut started way back in the 1930’s – it was the depression – no money – no department stores – these women were thrifty, they would deconstruct their husbands old clothes and make that new dress for a get together with the girls – they even used household items like curtains and bedlinen – we are pleased to be able keep that tradition alive as we again face hard times.
