Formalwear Alterations in Sintra

About Stitch Craft

Stitch Craft focuses on suit and formalwear alterations shaped around the garment, the fit, and the occasion.

We work by appointment so each garment can be reviewed carefully before any alteration plan is agreed. That includes checking construction, fabric, seam allowances, and the fit you want to achieve.

From suit jackets and trousers to shirts, blouses, coats, and blazers, our work is designed for business wear, weddings, and formal events.

Our Story

A studio built for formalwear fit

Built around careful fittings, clear scope, and alterations that respect the garment.

Stitch Craft was founded by Miguel Almeida to provide focused tailoring for formalwear in Sintra. The studio was shaped around a simple idea: assess the garment first, then agree on the work that makes sense for its construction and condition.

Our process is appointment-led and usually includes one or two fittings, depending on the garment and the alteration scope. For formalwear projects, we provide a written alteration scope and a custom quote after inspection.

When possible, we preserve original design details and keep the silhouette balanced, especially on jackets and trousers that need to work together as one outfit.

What We Stand For

Our approach to alterations

Practical tailoring values for formalwear that needs precision and restraint.

Assessment first

Every project starts with an inspection. We review the garment structure, fabric, and fit limitations before discussing the next step.

Clear scope

We keep the alteration scope clear and practical, so you know what is being adjusted and why it matters to the final fit.

Coordinated fitting

Suit jackets and trousers are often fitted together to keep proportions balanced and the overall look consistent.

Final review

Collection includes a final check and care notes so you know how to handle the garment after the alteration is complete.
