Taking It to the Streets, New York City Style

The COVID-19 government shut down closed her in-person business so she went retro – real retro – to continue earning a living.

From the New York Post:

Call her Tailor Swift. 

Makayla Wray, 29, an East Village tailor, works in Chinatown for an upscale designer during the day. 

But Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5:30 p.m. until dark, she’s a street seamstress working out of an old cart stationed at the corner of East Houston and Mulberry streets. 

“In the morning I make runway clothes, then I come in at night to hem the little guys,” she told The Post.
