The alterations bench, priced

Not everything needs to be made from scratch

Plenty of what comes through the showroom is a garment someone already owns and wants to actually fit. Maximus does premium alterations on suits, tuxedos, shirts, trousers, blazers, wedding outfits, party wear and ethnic wear — and unlike most custom shops, they publish the alteration price list rather than quoting on the spot. Bring photos, an inspiration design, or an old suit, shirt or coat you love, and the master tailors will recreate or enhance the style. Depending on where you are, the team can also come to your home or workplace to measure.
