| | |  Malkin's Custom Orders
Madame Malkin's has, along with their regular stock, an extensive setup for custom orders. Along the left wall of the main room, another curtained doorway, looking rather similar to the two at the back of the shop, can be found, and that leads to a rather smaller room. It seems even smaller due to the tables and shelves lining the walls, containing more measuring tapes, pattern books, style magazines, bolts of fabric, lace, sequins, beads and other trims. In the center of the room are three small, round platforms, raised a few inches off the ground, for measurement and alteration purposes, along with a few comfortable chairs. Customers might as well be comfortable if they need to discuss orders.
If you choose to make a custom order, you will be directed in here so you can make your wishes known without the bustle of the main room, and the shopkeeper or shopkeeper assistant will join you once they are available. | |

Sugar infused first years definitely filled the air with excitement as Jace stepped into Madam Malkin’s to get a new set of uniform. His parents can blame his endocrine glands for the sudden, almost unnecessary clothing purchase.
Seeing the long cue before him, the black haired boy wandered the store to see if he can entertain himself while waiting for the first years to get their uniforms done. Jace stumbled upon a curtained area and was delighted to see a bolt of fabric with a geometric design and stenciled sakura flower! The teen reached out to touch the soft material and wondered how much fabric he needs for a brand new kosode... Sachiko didn't actually need anything in this shop, but it didn't mean she didn't WANT something. Although she could argue that she did need robes from here. Robes to help complete her plan to sneak on board the Hogwarts Express this term since once again her request to transfer had been denied by her parents.
What did they know anyway? Rude.
She had a green tie in her hands, which she was idly twirling as she sashayed about. Yellow was obnoxious, blue reminded her too much of her Beauxbatons uniform, and red belong to morons like Torrance who - while a decent snog for lip gloss testing purposes - were not her crowd. So...green it was.
"That's more like it," she said, pointing triumphantly at the fabric the boy was touching. He looked about her age. Maybe. "WHY don't school uniforms use fabric like that?"
Like...Hogwarts robes were black. Ew That hardly helped showed off her raven hair.

“A meter and a half, perhaps? Two?” Jace wasn’t so sure about his measurements so probably it would be best to just leave the roll of fabric for now and see if he could finally line up to get his robes adjusted. Turning, the half Japanese teen paused in his tracks to see a girl who looked like someone from a Japanese manga, and glanced back at the roll of fabric he chose earlier.
Japanese manga looking girl...and her enthusiasm about the sashiko print he chose? She’s definitely from the East...or her ancestors at least.
The girl’s question was valid though. Why do schools prefer plain robes? “Practicality, I suppose? It’s a good way to identify students of a particular school too...” he said softly as his brown eyes landed on the green tie she held. Slytherins do wear green ties but with silver-gray accentuation. “You’re...not from Hogwarts...are you?” Was it...a rude question to ask?

“You’re...not from Hogwarts...are you?” Was it...a rude question to ask? Practicality. Boring. Sachiko was not impressed by that reasoning at all. "And patterns like this wouldn't be?" she questioned, perfectly cute eyebrow raised at him. Black was less distinguishable, so THAT argument was rubbish also. She supposed that that was ONE good thing about Beauxbatons uniforms, they were blue and stood out among the drab robes that many witches and wizards wore.
Swinging her tie around a bit more, the light catching it just so to reveal the silvery striped pattern - whatever - she gave the boy a devlish grin and moved a tiny bit closer to him. "Why? Ashamed you never noticed me before?"
HEHE,
