Serving Carmichael
Alterations for Carmichael.
Twelve minutes east along Fair Oaks Boulevard. Carmichael sends us a lot of restoration and resizing — good clothes, well looked after, worth keeping.
The work coming out of Carmichael tends toward the considered end: quality garments that need resizing rather than replacing, coats worth relining, and pieces with enough sentimental or material value to justify proper repair.
That suits us. Restoration is slower work and it's the part of the trade that most rewards experience, which is what thirty years buys you.
Manzanita Ave north to Greenback Lane, then east. Walk in during opening hours or call ahead.

Resizing a wardrobe rather than replacing it
Bodies change, and a closet full of good clothes that no longer fit is a common and solvable problem. Most quality garments have enough seam allowance to move a size in either direction, sometimes more.
Bring several pieces at once. Fitting a group in one session is faster, cheaper per garment, and keeps the proportions consistent across everything — the same trouser break, the same degree of taper, the same sleeve length.
