Testimonials

“I have a condition called lipoatrophy, which eats all your body fat. […] These suits are special to me because they are the first suits that fit me properly. Mia is such a lovely, kind, and professional woman. She makes sure that your entire experience is perfect.”

-Joe Average

“Modernize provides great quality, and you just can’t ask for more. You really can’t. And when you get serviced - what you guys are doing is ensuring this ‘family feeling’ with your customers. That’s just going beyond. That’s just giving me, the client, extra. And, besides the business part, you guys are very thoughtful.”

-Anthony Blackmen

“The custom made tailored Mandarin suit that was made for me was absolutely stunning. The fabric was superb and the service was outstanding. Only went in twice for measurements and no further adjustments were necessary. Would definitely return!!”

-Jay Son

“I took my suit pants here to have them fixed after having sub-par alterations done elsewhere...Mia and Chris were excellent! The pants turned out perfectly, and it was very easy to do business with them. I would highly recommend them for any tailoring needs. I've been to several tailors in the past with disappointing results...so it's very nice to find somewhere that's doing things properly.”

-Darren Scott

“I bought several masks from here and asked for unique alterations to each and Mia was incredibly responsive and helpful with getting the alterations done and getting them to my house quickly! Super great service, the masks fit excellently, exactly how I want, would highly recommend.”
