Is the American fashion industry dying? In Part 1 of my chat with George Kalajian, we cover this topic among many others! George Kalajian is the owner of Tom's Son's International Pleating, a five generation family owned pleating business in the New York fashion district. George has created garments for big names like Dior, Oscar de la Renta, Coach, the Metropolitan Museum, (and many more) as well as shows and movies like "Downton Abbey", "The Gilded Age", Stephen King's "It", and "The Gods of Egypt".
