I was on a favorite online forum tonight sharing fashion finds with others similarly obsessed when one of them mentioned that the coat she'd just scored at 70% off turned out to be a bit on the long side, and she was nervous about finding a good tailor to adjust it. Now, this gal is in NYC so no doubt she could sort that out without a train ride to Montclair, but I immediately thought how lucky I am to have found Anna several years ago, after having some very expensive pants butchered by the "tailoring" at a local dry cleaners.
Anna (of Dino and Anna Tailors, 544 Valley Road, Upper Montclair) is a godsend of major proportions. She's gotten me (and my Prada and Elie Tahari trousers) through several size changes, and her considerable skills have allowed me to shop sample sales secure in the knowledge that her magical needle can resculpt a size or two off anything I find: pants, a fitted blouse and skirt, she's even rewoven snags in one of my sweaters and found soft suede patches for the elbows of my husband's favorite cashmere pullover. And all for very reasonable prices.
