STEVE PETIX, the tailor
among tailors, has finally real,
ized an ambition he's been work-
ing on for years . . .to make a
suit of clothes that will give a
slender man "that broad look"
• . . and allow a fat man to ap-
pear slender .. . Clothiers have
long boasted of having such a
garment . . . but never have it
to sell!
WHEN STEVE was eight years
old, he was already learning
to be a tailor in Palermo, Italy.
. . . He'd go to school in the
morning, and would spend the
rest of the day working at the
trade chosen for him. . • Little
Stevie would stand in the door-
way of the shop, holding a
needle and thread, and watch
the other .kids at play in the
streets. • Whenever one of
them tore his pants, Steve would
be right there to mend them
like nothing had happened. . .
Many an Italian lad was saved
from mama's violet wicket be-
cause of the deft fingers owned
by Steve. . . Today, 36 years
later, those fingers are known
from one end of the continent
to the other.
HIS REPUTATION preceded
his arrival in America, in 1921
. and he was immediately
hired by Fashion Park. . . For
ten years, Steve helped make
the famous clothes put out by
that company. . . Then, in 1932,
he came to Detroit, and went. to
work as head tailor for Bernie
Frant. . . Steve and Bernie were
a great combination through 10
years of pleasing customers .. .
and the greats of the shows and
sports world carried their
names all over the world.
THIS MONTH, Steve Petix,
Custom Tailor, celebrates six
years since the opening of its
doors on West McNichols Rd...
His clientele numbers the finest
dressed men in town.
STEVE HAS ALWAYS main-
tained that the finest tailors
come from Europe "because they.
learn as children". . . That's
Why his list of employees in the
modernistic cutting room is one
big international get-together.
There's a German-Jewish refu-
gee and a French refugee. . .
Another tailor comes from Israel
and one comes from Italy. . .
Sam Seppen is Steve's chief de-
signer, and also responsible for
many of the new styles emen-
ating from the up-to-date shop
with the stylish daylight light-
ing system.

WILLIAM SOROKIN is play-
ing host to an aunt from Aus-
tralia who he never knew exist-
ed . . . and who he discovered
quite by accident. . . A friend of
Bill's, visiting in New York, went
to a party and found out about
her from an Australian stranger
who happened to mention the
aunt's name. . . This is the first
time Mrs. Mania Chanen has
been in America ... and already
she has covered 16,000 miles in
visits. . . Mrs. Chanen is also the
aunt of Mrs. Paul Rodner.
