Tailors can take pieces of cloth dropped from enemies and turn them into extremely useful items. Some items, like bags, are useful to every character to expand their inventory. Others are some of the most powerful cloth caster pieces available. However, they are Bind on Pickup and require the tailoring skill to wear which means tailoring is one of the most common skills for cloth casters to take.

At 350 Tailoring, you may choose one of three specializations. Each specialization allows the crafting and use of a set with bonuses to different types of spells. The three options are Mooncloth (Healing), Shadoweave (Frost and Shadow), and Spellfire (Arcane and Fire). If you are trying to make your specialization set, you should craft each type of special cloth at every chance (3 days, 20 hours) to gain skill points for creating them. It is useful to make all three types of cloth because tailors with a specialty other than yours will often be willing to trade non-specialty pieces of cloth with you. That way, each of you can get cloth together for your sets more quickly. If not, you can also sell them or keep them to make bags. (Primal Mooncloth Bag, Ebon Shadowbag, or Spellfire Bag)

[tab:Complementary Professions]
Enchanting
One of the most common pairings for Tailoring, Enchanting will allow the tailor to disenchant any uncommon or better items created while leveling to make more money than selling the actual item. It is also useful to be able to collect the enchanting materials needed to craft some of the higher level items.
Skinning
While not a major component of most tailoring recipes, some will take leather. Since there is no primary gathering profession associated with tailoring, taking skinning will allow a tailor to collect nearly all of the materials needed for crafting most items. Additionally, selling leather on the Auction House will help a tailor make some money.
Mining/Herbalism
While these have nearly nothing useful for a tailor, any gathering profession can go pair well if a tailor is looking for a good source of money.
[tab:Money]
Tailors may have difficulty making money as many cloth casters already have the skill. Some money may be made on the Auction House with bags and profession bags, especially the largest ones. Also, depending on the server economy, specialty cloths (Primal Mooncloth, Spellcoth, and Shadowcloth) can make tidy profits. Another great way to make some gold is selling Golden Spellthread or Runic Spellthread, which require exalted with Aldor and Scryers, respectively. Both have a decent level of profit, but are expensive to make.
