tailor / sewer
What's the difference?
And what word is more appropriate if in general conversation we want to mention people who simply sew clothes?

Question

Sewer is just someone that sews. A tailor specifically makes clothes. Additionally sewer means: An artificial, usually underground conduit for carrying off sewage or rainwater. The word sewer is most commonly known for this definition. So using the word tailor would be easier to understand.

sewer doesn't design the clothes
