Expert Alterations & Tailoring

We Don’t Fit You to the Clothes, We Fit the Clothes to You

Even the finest garment cannot realize its full value if it doesn’t fit your body perfectly. The pants you bought online that are too long, the jacket that felt fine last year but is a bit snug now, the cherished clothes sleeping in your closet after a change in body shape.

Southwood’s expert tailoring service is the magic that transforms off-the-rack clothing into a bespoke piece made just for you. The best style begins with the perfect fit. Let our decades of experience complete your look.
