ABOUT CHIARINA

Chiarina grew up in the tiny villiage of Montecilfone in Abruzzi, Italy, about 50 miles east of Rome. As a child, she learned to sew from her immediate family members who were all tailors. She established her shop more than 30 years ago, and since then has received rave reviews from her customers.

Whether you need a custom-made shirt, your designer suit mended, or a tuxedo altered, you can count on Chiarina Custom Tailor to satisfy all your alterations and custom tailoring needs.

For custom shirts, customers can choose the cuff, collar, monogram styles, as well as select from a large variety of fabric.

Chiarina also offers one-stop shopping for wedding parties. Brides bring their entire wedding party to Chiarina's because the shop charges significantly less than competitors. Unlike most tailors and bridal shops that require multiple visits for bridal alterations, Chiarina does just one fitting.

Chiarina also caters to the groom and ushers by renting tuxedos with a large assortment from by Jean Yves Parisian, Andrew Fezza, Ralph Lauren, Givenchy, FUBU, Perry Ellis, and Claiborne. Men can also rent accessories to match the bridal party's dresses. Tuxedo alterations are done free the same day you pick up your tux.

The shop also does leather repairs. If you've given up on that expensive leather jacket, stop by Chiarina's and she'll take care of it for you.

The biggest value customers receive from Chiarina is individual attention. She spends lots of quality time and ensures you are satisfied with her work.
