$500 towards the purchase of a man's custom tailored tuxedo or suit.

Treat yourself or your man to a $500 gift certificate towards a custom tailored tuxedo or men's suit made of the finest European fabrics from Andrea E. Soci Custom Tailoring & Design. Andrea is the fashionable and creative tailor to many of San Francisco's local TV and sports personalities. Choose from a variety of fabrics.

Andrea Valo slaps legal suits on lawyers and makes house calls on doctors. And if there's one thing this perky blonde won't sit still for it's a saggy suit or a baggy pair of pants.

This one-woman enterprise is all about custom-tailored clothing from computer-generated patterns that are state of the art when it comes to comfort and fit.

If you take 40 men, all size 40 regular, line them up next to each other and you will quickly see how each varies in structure and body proportions.

With Andrea E Soci it's the pattern that is tailor made to the man. Thirty-six individual and highly precise body measurements are taken before a thread of fabric is cut or one stitch is sewn into place. This means that there is a one-time measuring/fitting session after which an entire wardrobe, or one piece at a time can be ordered by phone for months or even years to come. This means less hassle when you need a garment or other piece of wardrobe for that special occasion or sudden invitation.
