payments

Payments may be made in cash, credit card, certified check, cashier's check, or a money order.  Personal checks will be accepted only when received at least two weeks before releasing the garment to a customer.  An initial 25% deposit is due upon signing the Work Agreement for the custom garment, garment alterations, or other dressmaking services.  An additional deposit is required before fabrics or other materials are ordered.  Work on your garment will not begin if the deposits are not paid.  Subsequent 25% payments are due at the time of scheduled fittings.  Unlike ready-to wear, custom garments result from a service and are therefore not returnable and not refundable.

meet Malgo

I am third generation of custom clothiers.  At the age of nine I made my first skirt for the school dance on my grandmother's pedal foot sewing machine.  My passion for sewing clothes led me towards continuing my education in fasion.  After graduating from High School of Fashion in Poland, I opened my own custom dressmaking shop.  In 1994 I earned a Diploma of Craftmanship, in custom dressmaking, from the Chamber of Artisans in Poland.  My geatest education in Europe includes learning directly from custom cotoure atelier.  After moving to the US I worked as a sample producer for leading fashion companies and I altered gowns for bridal stores.  Subsequently I studied accounting in DPT Business School  and studied Arts at Community College of Philadelphia.  While working in an office I missed sewing so much.  I quickly came back to doing what I was destined - sewing.  Opening this business enabled me to continue doing what I enjoy the most, and to give the best of me to others.
