I agree the jackets were on the l...Hello Lindaraxa,<br />I agree the jackets were on the large side for the petite lady-waiters, and therefore less than optimal. However this was a somewhat unusual situation for us since most of the time the staff sent over by the the caterer aren't so tiny. The reason we supply the jackets (and bowties) in the first place is to ensure a uniformity of staff appearance at our parties that cannot be assured when the standard rig they show up in is usually limited to a white shirt and black pants. <br /><br />As far as maid uniforms go, keep an eye on this site as I will be posting on that very subject shortly...<br /><br />Thanks for the support, do keep commenting please!Reggie Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04044215790585354363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-11210613208054591122010-01-05T14:49:36.614-05:002010-01-05T14:49:36.614-05:00I've been thinking about those jackets ever si...I've been thinking about those jackets ever since I read your post but didnt want to be picky... I agree with little augury although I would go one step further, maids uniforms, in black with white aprons, grey with white for less formal ocassions. I log those around with me, in three different sizes...now making them wear them is another matter!<br /><br />I love your blog, keep it up!lindaraxahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721286284279902181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-60978167096604501982010-01-01T13:07:37.331-05:002010-01-01T13:07:37.331-05:00Lady Jicky,
