Good to know

Frequently asked

Have a question that isn't here? Give us a call at (908) 322-2099.

Do I need an appointment?

You can stop by any time during business hours. For bridal gowns and larger projects, a quick call or request ahead helps us set aside time just for you.

How far ahead should I bring in my wedding dress?

We recommend bringing your gown in six to eight weeks before the wedding. That leaves room for two or three relaxed fittings. Bring your shoes and undergarments to the first one.

How long do alterations take?

It depends on the garment and the work involved. Simple hems and repairs are usually quick; tell us your date when you drop off and we will plan around it.

Do you work on leather and suede?

Yes. We repair and alter leather and suede jackets, coats and more, and we offer a special cleaning service for leather.

Do you speak Spanish?

Yes. Spanish-speaking clients are always welcome.

Is there parking?

Yes, free parking is available, and the shop is wheelchair accessible.
