About Us

A personal touch in every seam

At Liana Rae Sewing and Alterations, we believe that the right fit changes everything. A well-tailored garment doesn't just look better — it feels better, moves better, and gives you confidence you didn't know you were missing.

Based right here in Princeton, we've built our reputation on patience, precision, and treating every piece of clothing — whether it's a $20 pair of jeans or a once-in-a-lifetime wedding dress — with the same careful attention.

No rush jobs, no cut corners. Just honest, skilled work that stands the test of time. That's the Liana Rae way.

"They took in my wedding dress and it was absolutely perfect. I couldn't believe how good it looked — like it was made for me. Which, I guess, it basically was."

"I bring all my alterations here now — pants, shirts, even my husband's suits. The work is always clean and the turnaround is quick. True locals who really care about their craft."

"My favorite coat had a huge tear and I thought it was done for. They repaired it so seamlessly I can't even find the spot. Absolutely wonderful work — highly recommend!"
