THE CRAFT

The Alterations Journey

STEP 1
Fitting

Visit a store or book a virtual consult. We pin the garment to your posture and discuss the make.

STEP 2
Mark & Cut

Our cutters mark precisely, respecting balance and canvas. Hand work where it matters.

STEP 3
Make

Alterations are sewn by experienced tailors, finished by hand with horn buttons where specified.

STEP 4
Collection

Final try-on and fine tuning. We steam/press your garment so it leaves looking immaculate.
