Cordella LaRoe

As you can see from my review of John’s in Sanford, I need alterations. Either that, or my arms need to be lengthened. Easier to shorten sleeves. Hard to find someone great, affordable, and available. After moving from Sanford to Mt. Dora, where I grew up, I needed a tux jacket altered. My mom recommended Cordella, who is a family friend working out of her home. When I got the jacket back, I was extremely pleased with the work (as good or better than Brooks Brothers has done for me in the past), and the price was so low ($ 5 for both sleeves) that I insisted on paying more. Yes, Cordella works out of her house, but she has a thriving clientele — all the old-​time locals around here know and trust her to make and/​or alter anything. Give her a call. You won’t be sorry.
