Tailors are predominantly women, which is why Tomislav Kuna, the owner and heir to tailor’s shop Jura, deserves our particular attention.
Zagreb’s Maksimirska Street is where you’ll notice a small window that hasn’t changed much since 1973. But that’s what makes it so charming.
He took over the business from his father Juraj who was renowned for fine suits worn by practically all men in those days. It was inconceivable for an average worker not to own at least one suit worn to work, whereas men today have a more casual style.
Regardless of the business look or dress code you have to observe, everybody needs a good men’s suit at least once in their lifetime. If you’re not into ready-made suits, then tailor’s shop Jura is the right place for making your custom-made suit. This charming craft where tradition meets modernity will blow you away with their approach and the fact that they’re the only ones in Zagreb who still hand sew buttonholes.
Visit Josip Dubravica who runs the craft Kravata – Zagreb and make your perfect custom-made suit complete with a tie, wich is an original Croatian product.
If you love tradition and Croatian heritage, go to Ethno Mara to get shirts with the Glagolitic script.
