It is REALLY hard for us to watch someone try a one-of-a-kind Vintage or Designer Resale item on ~ and have it almost fit.
So we have decided to offer our own tailoring at DRB Dowstairs.
DRB Downstairs is an elegant reflection of the upstairs showroom with a scented and comfortable space for you to visit.
]Our tailoring is 100% guaranteed for expert craftmanship due to our use of Haute Couture construction and tailoring techniques. See our Tailor's Biography below.
All items are accepted for Tailoring including Jeans. Consider this... Tailoring a Resale or Vintage designer item may cost you more than what you paid for the garment. BUT, the combined cost of the garment plus tailoring is significantly less than what you would pay for an "off the shelf" Designer item at a retail store...and that retail garment will not be tailored to specifically fit your frame!
