A tailor is a person who, based on the human body, makes clothing sizes and specifications through measurement, and reasonably uses raw and auxiliary materials to cut and sew clothing.

A tailor is a worker who specializes in cutting, sewing and making clothes. In the Qing Dynasty, Gu Zhangsi's "Local Records" said: "The ready-made clothes are called tailors ... the cover is a matter of sewing, and then one by one." Also known as "Sewers" and "Clothes Makers", they were called "Sewers", "Sews", "Sewers" and "Clothes Makers" in ancient times. The ancestors of the sacrificial industry were Xuanyuan, Leizu, Huangdi, Youchao and Needle God (Song).

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, various names of clothes were recorded in Shangshu and Shijing, such as Xuanyi, Coat, Huang Shang and Embroidery Award. The court set up a "sewing man" to take charge of the sewing work in the palace. In the Han Dynasty, clothing production has reached a very high level. After thousands of years of progress and development, a very extensive and wonderful clothing culture in China has been formed.

There are two kinds of tailors: shop opening and door-to-door service. Generally, the production of clothes has to go through the processes of cutting, selecting cloth, drawing lines, cutting, wrapping, sewing, buckling and ironing.
