Do you offer custom tailoring for both women and men?
Yes. We design and tailor custom clothing for both women and men, including formalwear, occasionwear, and fitted wardrobe pieces.

What kinds of alterations do you handle?
We offer hemming, resizing, tapering, strap adjustments, zipper replacement, waist shaping, fit corrections, and alterations for dresses, suits, jackets, skirts, and other garments.

How long do alterations take?
Simple hems or minor fit updates may move faster, but bridal and formal alterations should be described more carefully than “2 to 7 days.” A safer answer for this page is: turnaround depends on the garment and the work involved, and bridal alterations should ideally begin well before the event, often six to ten weeks ahead, with multiple fittings if needed. 

Can you redesign an existing dress or sentimental garment?
Yes. We restyle existing garments by updating silhouettes, necklines, sleeves, embellishments, and overall fit while respecting the original piece.

Do you design bridal, prom, quinceanera, military ball, and pageant dresses?
Yes. We create and tailor garments for weddings, bridesmaids, mother-of-the-bride looks, prom, quinceanera, military ball, pageants, and other formal occasions.

Do you offer Persian wedding Sofreh Aghd design and wedding dance floor decor?
Yes. We offer Persian wedding Sofreh Aghd design as well as wedding dance floor styling and decor concepts for receptions and event spaces.
