Pricing depends on style — you will know upfront
I like to keep the whole process simple and personal. From the moment you book to the day you pick up your garment, you deal with me directly, no drop-off counters or middlemen. We chat about exactly what you need, I fit the piece on you so it sits just right, and then I take my time getting the details perfect. When you come back, your clothes are ready to wear and made to fit you.
