Minka’s Tailoring

I looked around for a tailor for a while before choosing Minka. I have taken shirts, suits, and jackets to her and she has done great work! Minka asks how I’m doing and makes me feel welcome when I’m there. Her rates are also beyond reasonable, for an example, she charges around $ 50 for suit sleeves shortened, pants hemmed, and pants tapered.
I will continue to bring any clothes I need altered to Minka and would suggest you to do the same.

Minka does a really nice job, we take everything to her. I first found her when I was quoted $ 500 for alternations (Catans) to my $ 600 dress. I asked around and was told over and over that Minka was the person to take my dress to. I did and it was beautiful. I figured that if she can alter my dress, hemming jeans should be a snap! PS she altered my wedding dress for less than $ 200.

For the past 4 years, Minka has been my secret weapon for taking my suits from ill-​fitting and boring to something you’d see out of GQ.
I think the best part about visiting Minka is that she takes the time to listen to what you’re looking for with your clothes and then gives you her opinion on what the ultimate outcome will be. For example, one of the biggest culprits for men’s suits is being bulky (not «bulky» as in the size is too big… but «bulky» in there’s too much fabric around the knees and calves). This is always the first thing she notices on me and fixes it right away.
I can’t really comment on how well she does for women’s clothes, but it seems like she has a pretty sizable women’s following. One look at the wall full of pictures she has in her shop can confirm this, so it seems she does really great work!
One common denominator you’ll hear from magazines and style editors is that finding a great tailor will save you from looking like you have no idea how to put yourself together. For me, Minka is my secret weapon to keeping my wardrobe looking great! Save yourself the time, money, frustration,&c &c with department store «alterations» and go see Minka. You won’t be disappointed!

We have been using Minka’s for years and honestly 5 stars is not enough! We have had everything from the entire lining of a jacket to a vest to wedding dress worked on. All perfectly done. She is a very nice person and takes care of you well. Will always go back here.

Did a fantastic job on everything even a 40 year old cashmere jacket
