Have your Armani designer suit fitted right here in Nairobi

At a corner, among the rack of suits, jackets, leather belts and shelves of shirts, shoes and hats, an animated conversation between a customer and a well-dressed tailor carries on as they look at fabric swatches; the customer feels fabric after fabric and the tailor quickly volunteers information.

“He flew in from Rome for the made-to-measure service we offer for Armani,” says Aziz Fazal, director of Little Red, as he points at the tailor who has taken over this corner at the Yaya Centre branch.
