Leading Tailor Shop for Custom Tailoring and Alterations

Busy tailor shop where craftsmanship meets client needs.

Boyds has two on-premise tailor shops, one in Philadelphia, which is the largest of its kind in the country, and one in Wayne.

With over 30 tailors and seamstresses, we offer complimentary alterations and basic re-alterations for up to one year on all full-priced ready-to-wear.

Expert Craftsmanship for an Exceptional Fit

Every wardrobe is unique, and the right fit plays an essential role in how clothing looks and feels. At Boyds, our tailor shop provides both custom tailoring and expert alterations designed to complement your proportions and lifestyle. From fine-tuning a designer suit to creating a more personalized silhouette, every service is completed with exceptional craftsmanship. Our tailoring specialists work with a wide range of garments, helping clients refine new purchases, update existing favorites, and achieve a polished appearance for important occasions.

With traditional techniques and modern expertise, we create garments that feel comfortable, move naturally, and maintain their original elegance. From business attire to formal wear and contemporary men and women fashion, our services are designed to help every piece reach its full potential. The result is a wardrobe that feels intentional and tailored to the way you live.

How We Perfect the Fit of Every Garment

Every appointment begins with a personal consultation to understand your style preferences and the purpose of your garment. This allows our specialists to recommend the most appropriate tailoring or alteration services while preserving the character of the piece. After the consultation, precise measurements and fittings guide each stage of the work. Our experienced tailors carefully shape, refine, or adjust the garment using techniques that complement its fabric and design, creating a balanced fit that feels natural.

Before your garment is complete, we perform a final fitting and quality review to ensure every detail meets our standards. This thoughtful process allows the Boyds Tailor Shop to deliver garments that are as comfortable to wear as they are refined in appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an appointment to visit the Boyds Tailor Shop?

Appointments are recommended to provide dedicated time with a tailoring specialist, especially for custom tailoring, formalwear, or multiple garments. Walk-in visits may also be accommodated based on availability.

What types of garments can be tailored?

Our tailor shop works with a wide range of clothing, including suits, sport coats, trousers, dresses, skirts, outerwear, shirts, and select formalwear for both men and women.

Can multiple garments be tailored during one appointment?

Absolutely. Bringing multiple garments allows our team to assess how each piece fits and recommend adjustments that create a polished, cohesive wardrobe. It is also a convenient way to complete several tailoring needs in one visit.

How long does the tailoring process usually take?

Completion times depend on the type of garment and the scope of the tailoring or alterations being completed. After assessing your garment during your consultation, our team will provide an estimated completion date and discuss any scheduling considerations to help ensure your clothing is ready when you need it.

Can older garments be updated with tailoring?

In many cases, yes. Tailoring can refresh the fit, shape, or overall appearance of well-made garments, making them more comfortable and better suited to your current style. Professional alterations can also help extend the life of quality clothing by adjusting details such as sizing and structure while preserving the original craftsmanship. This allows you to continue enjoying favorite pieces while giving them a more updated and personalized feel.
