About | Fairy Godmother Tailoring

Meet the Fairy Godmothers

Women supporting women in all walks of life

Originally Andra's Finds Tailoring, we realized the alterations industry needed a fresh take- no more stuffing massive padded bra cups into oversized busts or adding twenty point impossible bustles to gowns. The idea was to find new approaches to traditional fit issues. From ballgowns to sleek satins, our goal is comfort and confidence for clients in their current season of life.

We are proud to support women in all walks of life and seek to support them both in our hiring and serving of clients. <3
