Another one of the street vendors (see Fruit Vendor) from Govan Mbeki Avenue in the city centre. This dude does alterations to clothes and the fact that he is using a antique Singer machine just fascinated me. The sign in front of his table says: King P Fashion Design - Alteration. I know this is Port Elizabeth Daily Photo (as in one photo a day), but I couldn't resist placing a second pic just to show where his stall is situated. Right in front of City Hall and Market Square.
Not the place to have a 'wardrobe malfunction' necessitating emergency fashion repairs - I don't see any dressing room.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Mayor Maphazi wouldn't mind us using her parlour?
:-)
Fun to see that guy. He has a million dollar view from his chair!
