How It Works
01
Consultation
Bring the suit and the shoes you will wear with it. We will have you try it on, then discuss what needs to be done.
02
Fitting
We pin and mark the changes while you are wearing the suit. Most alterations take one or two fittings to get right.
03
Collection
You come try the suit on one last time before it leaves. If anything still needs changing, we can have it ready within a day.

Common Questions
Before You Come In
Do you do house calls?
Yes. We can come to you. Every visit is different. Please call or text the shop and we will work out the details.
Do you travel to see clients?
Yes. We can travel anywhere to see you. Reach out by phone or text and we will make the arrangements.
Do I need an appointment?
Appointments are not required. We accept walk-ins seven days a week. However, we operate on a first come, first serve basis without an appointment.
Do you offer rush service?
Yes. We do offer a variety of rush services, available upon request after your fitting. Formalwear has a next day service.
What should I bring to a fitting?
Bring the suit you would like altered, with the shoes you plan to wear with it. Hem length and drape both change depending on footwear.
How many fittings will I need?
Most suit alterations are done in one fitting. In some special circumstances, it may require two or three fittings to obtain the perfect fit.
How much do alterations cost?
Every piece is quoted in person. After your fitting, we will give you the price before any work begins.
Do you make custom suits?
Yes. Bespoke suits are made here by hand, start to finish. Bring an idea or a reference and we will take it from there.
Can a suit be let out as well as taken in?
Yes, as far as the seam allowance runs. Most jackets and trousers carry enough to go up a size; past that the piece has to be recut.
How should a suit fit?
There is no one way for a suit to fit. There are multiple ways a suit can fit and still look great. The answer is highly subjective. We would love for you to come in to discuss your options.
Do you alter tuxedos and black tie?
Yes. Tuxedos, dinner jackets, and formal trousers are all cut to the same standard as a business suit, down to the satin facings and the trouser braid.
