    Just come by with your garment — no appointment is needed.

    Assess & Adjust

    We look at the piece together, agree on the alteration — and get to work.

    Try it on right away: does everything fit? If not, we'll stitch it again.

№ 03 — Before / After

A difference you can see.

Drag the slider: on the left the jacket before the alteration — too wide, marked with pins. On the right the same piece after the fitting.

After: the jacket fits cleanly, freshly pressed on the hangerBEFOREAFTER
