I'm a bit skeptical that a department store was ever a great option for that, Maybe once upon a time. Aside from a one shop tailor, I'd look to small chains oriented around men's clothing like J Banks, J Press, and so forth at this point.

Heimie's Haberdashery in Saint Paul still offers this sort of personal styling, and they offer tailoring as well. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the Twin Cities.

Likewise, John Helmer Haberdashery in Portland, OR

Bonobos has guide stores with stylists in them. If you need that kind of clothing it can work out pretty well. It's a completely different price range to Saks though.

> I've noticed when I am abroad there seem to be more.

My experience in Europe has been that the men’s clothing department is, at most, 20% of the store space. Alongside multiple floors dedicated to women’s clothing.
