The tag shop=tailor describes a place where clothing is professionally made (and sold), repaired, or altered.
Although the term “tailor” is primarily associated with suits and men's clothing—specifically, made-to-measure garments with a more structured construction—a tailor can, in principle, also create women's clothing. If specifically women's dresses and other women's clothing are being manufactured, the tag craft=dressmaker might be more appropriate.

Some mappers prefer to use the shop key only for places where goods are sold (not services like a tailors) however thisshop=tailortag is older and still used more.craft=dressmaker– Manufactures exclusively women's clothing (dresses!). In some ways very similar to a tailor, but the front-of-shop service would tend to have a very different feel.shop=fabric– A shop where materials are sold for DIY tailoring. It may also offer tailoring services or teaching, but the focus is on selling cloth, thread and similar materials to home users.
