Dino & Anna Tailors

I first wrote about Anna two years ago, and since then have used her repeatedly for all sorts of work.
She is flawless.
She has essential recut my daughter’s leather skirt and put it back together, expertly. She does my wife’s suits with care and expertise.
I even bought a work coat with a defective zipper, which replaced with a «heavy duty» new one in days.
Dresses, tops, suits, you name it she does it!
And if you go there and she’s busy, there’s a reason. She’s very, very good.

I’m not super picky about tailors but my husband is. So I’m about to go into a super-​in-​depth analysis of pant hems and tailors… consider yourself warned.
We had a huge stack of jeans to get hemmed, and a few pairs of men’s slacks. We showed up on a rainy saturday, which as it turns out is the time when most people take a huge stack of clothes to the tailor.
Luckily for us, when we arrived, nobody was waiting. After we got there, more folks just kept showing up, with clothes in arms. Anna was nice and tried to get everybody accommodated as quickly as possible.
However, where my husband was unhappy was with his slacks. She only pinned one leg — apparently true tailors measure both legs since most people have one leg that’s slightly longer.
We also had a bunch of jeans where we wanted to keep the original hem. I’ve had other tailors keep the original hem on jeans, where they actually took the hem off, then re-​attached it after cutting the jean to the proper length. At Dino & Anna’s they basically just folded the jean, then sewed it to the proper length, which is the EASIEST way to reattach hems, but the cuff never lies flat when you do it that way. If I wanted them done that way, I would have just sewed them myself.
Anyway, the service at Dino & Anna’s was courteous, friendly, & speedy. You be the judge how you want your pants hemmed. I won’t be taking our pants & jeans there again.
