Clothes altered, with a fitting
A garment that fits looks more expensive than one that was expensive. We adjust length and width, usually in 48 hours.
- Free fitting with pinning A second fitting when it needs one.
- Original hem where possible So the jeans still look like the jeans.
- Usually in 48 hours Fixed price up front, for women and men.

I always have my suits and shirts altered there. Super cleaning and tailoring service

Good cleaning, fast service. Two hours before a wedding I found a stain on my suit I had not noticed. They cleaned it express. They try to make everything possible.
