Bridesmaids- your search for a go-to tailor is over. Fast, convenient, generous service. Dil turned a pink chiffon nightmare into a wearable dress for me in a super short time frame, and was lovely to work with in the process. I'm back for my next bridesmaid's dress and he gave me a great deal with a one day turnaround! He is loyal to his customers and I'm happy to support his business.

Dill, the owner, is incredibly pleasant and very timely/efficient. His shop is a treat - he has had many newspaper stories on him which he has hung up. He's done dresses for Princess Diana, suits for numerous Presidents and First Ladies, and important people throughout DC. Highly recommend!

I recently lost a significant amount of weight and as a result, had to have three of my suits re-tailored. After coming to Scogna Custom Tailor and Formal Wear, I will not go anywhere else for my tailoring needs. What a fantastic experience! My suits were tailored to perfection and I couldn't be happier with the level of service provided. Look no further - this is where you need to go to have any tailoring done!
