Whew. Alex is visibly relieved to hear the fabric won't be a problem. It makes all of this that much easier - and faster - when he's able to find something good on the first or second pass. A lengthy decision making process is unavoidable at times, but for a popup on the Plaza? Best to keep things as simple as possible.
"Hold still for now, and I'll let you know when to move or raise your arms, alright? I promise to be as light in touch as I can be." The tailor flashes Norn a bright smile and then sets about taking measurements with as much speed as he can manage. Practice has made this a very easy process for him, though there are some definite differences Alex has to keep in mind and adjust to as he gets further into the process. It's not unusual for him to take non-human clients, but he's always surprised (and honestly a bit intrigued) by the differences between people like himself and anyone who's not like him in some way.
Still, measuring only takes a few minutes, at which point Alex steps back and smiles at Norn. "There, nice and easy." Or so he hopes. It's always easy on his end, but clients can feel very differently about it. "Now, if you've a few minutes to spare, I can throw together a mock up for you to try on. If not, let's exchange information so I can get a hold of you when I have it ready."
