Welcome to Teodoor Tailor
Who we are
Generations of Craftsmanship, Tailored for Today
At Teodoor Tailor, tailoring isn’t just a service — it’s a family legacy built on precision, integrity, and pride in every stitch. Nestled in the heart of Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, we’ve become a trusted name for locals, professionals, and clients from across New York City who value fit, fabric, and flawless execution.
A Family of Tailors
Founded by master tailor Samuel Cires, Teodoor Tailor is a multigenerational business where tradition meets modern standards. With decades of hands-on experience in classic European tailoring, Samuel leads a tight-knit family team that includes his wife Monica, an expert in women’s alterations and detail work, and his sons Johan and Samil, who handle business operations, customer service, and strategy.
We believe in tailoring that respects the garment and the person — with every needle, chalk line, and fitting guided by care.
What We Stand For
Craftsmanship: Every piece we alter or create is treated like it belongs in our own wardrobe.
Precision: We don’t guess — we measure, fit, and refine until it’s right.
Integrity: No shortcuts, ever. Honest timelines, pricing, and results.
Community: We’re proud to be part of the Brooklyn fabric — and help New Yorkers look and feel their best.

Teodoor Tailor was an amazing experience for me. I had a dress slip that I needed hemmed for an event last minute and he got it done perfectly within hours. He was kind and helpful and gave good advice as to the length. Would go back!
