An elderly Egyptian tailor wearing glasses and a white work coat handles fabric at a vintage manual sewing machine inside a cluttered, aged workshop in Esna, Upper Egypt. The small shop is filled with fabric pieces, tools, and garments hanging on display, reflecting a traditional hand-tailoring trade that has been practiced for generations across Egyptian towns. Tailoring workshops (Tarziyya) like this remain an important part of local craft culture in Upper Egypt, offering made-to-measure clothing and repairs for the local community.
