Roman Fashion

We have been at 49 Civil Lines for quite a few years now with Roman Fashion. Civil Lines is a decent part of town, and we like being here. The building is older, but it works for what we need. We spend our days mostly handling the clothes and talking to the regulars who come in. It’s a pretty straightforward way to spend the time. We don't have a lot of big meetings or fancy equipment. It’s just a counter, some racks, and a lot of fabric. The street outside can get a bit hectic during the middle of the day, but it settles down in the evenings. We like the pace here. Some of our neighbors have been around as long as we have, so it feels like a real community. We aren't trying to change the world or anything, just trying to keep the shop going. Sometimes we stay late to finish up some work, and other times we close up early if things are slow. It’s a flexible way of working that suits us. If you’re ever in the Civil Lines area, our door is usually open. We don't use any high-pressure sales stuff. We just let people look around and help if they ask. It’s a simple life running a shop like this, and we’re fine with that.
