The Atelier
A perfect fit is never an accident.
A professional tailor specializes in customizing clothing to fit your body perfectly, making you look great. At Tailoring & Alteration Center, we're dedicated to finding the perfect fit for every customer.
You may be able to make small fixes, but when it comes to bigger cases, leave it to the professionals. We can perform general alterations so you can keep all your clothes in good condition — and we've been doing exactly that on Fenton Street for over four decades.
- Free fitting on every garment, before any work begins.
- Rush service available — same-day and next-day turnarounds when the date won't move.
- Everything under one roof — bridal, formal, everyday wear, drapery and upholstery.
What We Do
Six crafts, one workroom
From a bridal gown that has to be perfect to a pair of trousers that just needs to hang right — every garment gets the same measured attention.
Wedding Dress Alterations
When your special day approaches, we guarantee you'll fit perfectly into your dress. Our bridal alterations ensure your wedding day is picture perfect.
Suit Alterations
With suit alterations from Tailoring & Alteration Center, you can look and feel your very best — for the office, the wedding, or the interview.
Custom Made Clothing
Custom made clothing for both men and women. Nothing suits you better than clothes tailored specifically to you, cut from your own measurements.
Drapery
Custom drapery services to enhance your interior decor — measured, sewn and finished to your window and your room.
Upholstery
High-quality upholstery that brings tired furniture back to life, using the same hand-finishing standards we apply to fine garments.
How It Works
Four steps to a perfect fit
01
Consultation
Bring the garment in. We talk through what you want changed and what the fabric will allow.
02
Free Fitting
You try it on, we pin it precisely. Every measurement is taken on your body, not from a chart.
03
Expert Tailoring
The work is done by hand in our Fenton Street workroom. Rush service is available when you need it.
04
Final Try-On
You try it on again before you leave. If anything still isn't right, we fix it on the spot.

They did a great job altering my husband's suit in just 2 days. We had to pay an expedite fee but they were very helpful and reasonably priced. When my husband tried it on the day of pickup, the pants looked a bit too long. They shortened it in 15 mins, so we didn't have to come back. Would highly recommend!

Scott and his team were really great! He took me at the last minute after my initial tailor no showed for our appointment. I had 5 dresses altered for my wedding and surrounding events and my sister had her maid of honor dress altered and everything turned out excellent! I really appreciate the customer service and patience that was shown during this stressful and nerve wracking time.

Took my wedding dress here on a whim after a more expensive place in Bethesda told me it was basically unfixable. They found a really simple solution that worked really well and did an overall great job. Plus the prices are super reasonable. 100% would recommend them!

This place was amazing. I bought a dress the day before an event, realized it had a tear along the lining, and brought it to the Tailoring & Alteration Center the next morning. Even though everything was super last minute and they were on a tight schedule, they managed to squeeze in my repair in time, not to mention that the repair itself was so perfect the man couldn't even find where exactly he fixed the dress. 11/10.
