Hems taken up with room to let down, waists taken in, name labels and patches sewn, blazers and jumpers fitted, and the same for scout uniforms, dance costumes, and first communion and quinceañera dresses. From the shop's menu, most jobs under $20.
Children grow faster than uniforms wear out. A pair of school pants bought with room to grow drags on the ground in August and rides above the ankle by spring, and a blazer bought to last two years fits like a tent the first. We hem with a deep turn-up that can be let down later, take in waists with an adjustable seam, and fit blazers and jumpers so they look right now without cutting away the room that next year needs.
Families from Fullerton, Placentia, Brea, Anaheim, Buena Park, and La Habra bring us the whole back-to-school pile in one bag, plus the patches for scouts, the name labels the school asks for, and the dance costumes and formal dresses for the occasions in between. Every price is on the tailoring menu; hems and waists are quick jobs, usually back within the week.
What we do
Pricing
From the shop's menu; children's garments are priced the same as adults' for the same job.
How it works
For hems and waists we pin on the child, in the shoes they wear to school. A quick stop after pickup is enough.
Some schools want a particular hem length or label placement; tell us and we follow it.
Simple hems and waists are usually back within the week; blazers in seven to ten business days.
When the hem gets short, bring it back and we let it down: the turn-up was left for that.
