Hi, I know this is a real loss, and I understand some of these pieces meant a great deal to you. The fire affected my home and everything in it, and I’m still working through it. I’ve notified my insurance company and I’m consulting with an attorney to figure out the right way to handle everyone’s situation fairly. I’m not able to discuss payments or amounts right now, I appreciate your patience while I sort this out.

Dear valued customers, we are writing to share an important update regarding the recent fire incident at our tailor shop.

Regarding your garments, we have been working tirelessly to assess the situation. We have compiled a complete list of all the clothes and receipts that survived the fire undamaged or are currently being restored, cleaned, and repaired to be returned to you in perfect condition.

If your name, receipt number, and phone number appear on this posted list, please be assured that your garment is safe and accounted for.

If you cannot find your name or the details of your clothing on this list, unfortunately, those items were completely lost in the fire. Because the records were destroyed along with the items in the blaze, we do not have any further information about those pieces.

We will notify you to pick up according to your event date.

We understand how distressing this is, and we appreciate your patience and support during this difficult time.

Keeping these channels open will help us verify your order details and arrange for the return of your items as quickly as possible.

Please know that our primary focus right now is our clients. We are currently in the process of assessing our records and will be working through our customer list as quickly as possible. We will be reaching out to every client individually to discuss their specific items such as suits, wedding dresses, and other alterations and to find solutions for each situation.

Because I need to focus on managing the recovery to act as the primary point of contact for the business at this time. Please direct any immediate inquiries to at +15708511000.
