A visit to Gertie's Legacy feels a lot like popping in at your best friend's house. Customers quite often find themselves enjoying a therapeutic chat at Elza’s sewing table while she works her magic on garments that she tailors and mends with impeccable workmanship.  

There are no jobs too big or small and with her extensive knowledge in dressmaking, Elza will alter your outfits so that they fit your unique body shape.

Elza will even stitch missing or loose buttons back where they belong so you don't have to.
