Alterations, tailoring, and custom fittings with a focus on precision. From everyday pieces to once-in-a-lifetime garments, everything we do is built around one goal — the perfect fit.
Imperial Alterations was founded by Ira Lysa — a fashion designer with over 20 years in the industry, the founder of iralysa.com, and the force behind Ira’s Bridal Studio, a boutique specializing in bridal wear.
What started as a single shop in Hoboken has grown into two Hudson County locations serving Hoboken and Jersey City. The reason is simple: we do the work right, and people tell their friends.
Our team specializes in wedding gown alterations, suit tailoring, denim, leather, and cultural garments — fabrics and fits that most shops won’t touch. Every piece gets a personalized fitting and the same level of attention, whether it’s a $5,000 dress or a pair of jeans.
No shortcuts. No rushed work. Just precise tailoring at honest prices from a locally owned shop that’s earned its reputation one garment at a time.
