Client Stories

Highly recommend. Got a 3-piece, custom suit made for my wedding from scratch using some basic references. We had a meeting going over the details and it was super simple, stress-free and fully custom. They helped with bringing the budget down without the quality. Great fabrics to choose from, great customer service. 1 meeting, 1 fitting, final 'try-on' and I'm home with my suit. The craft, detail & fit of the finished suit is truly remarkable. If you want a suit made from scratch, call them.

Matthew B.

We were extremely pleased with the Modernist tailor. They were prompt with their responses and went out of their way to make everything we needed right on time. The suits had great fits, excellent material and very comfortable. Highly recommend them!
