Tips and Advice
When getting alterations done on clothing you should have an idea of what you expect from your tailoring experience. The fit, style, and look of the finished garment. However, not everyone is accustomed to the tailoring process. Once you move past off the rack clothing you open yourself up to a world of clothing you might not be familiar with. When you come to us to get clothing altered we will provide the best suggestions based on the garment. Ours tailors may be able to suggest a different alteration that will provide an even better result.
A fine suit isn't just about fabric and quality workmanship. Suits also rely on interfacing, canvases, pads, interlinings, silk threads, buttons, hooks, felts, and zippers to create a superior product. You may not see every detail within the linings of your suit, but those details are important when tailoring or altering a garment. Clothing fit is often subjective and dependent on your own personal tastes, body type and comfort. Our tailors can make sure your clothes fit in such a way as to reflect the best possible you.

While we perform alterations in-house we do not offer same-day alterations on orders during our busy season. We abide by a very tight schedule.
