Crafting Excellence Since 2008

What started as a passion project in a small Austin workshop has grown into the city's most trusted destination for custom clothing and expert alterations. Our journey is one of dedication to craftsmanship, innovation, and the perfect fit.

Founded by Master Tailor Elena Rodriguez, Kad Design Alterations began with a simple mission: to make every piece of clothing fit perfectly and reflect the unique style of its wearer. Over the years, we've expanded our team and services while maintaining our commitment to traditional techniques and modern innovation.

Our Mission

To transform the way people experience clothing through expert craftsmanship, personalized service, and unwavering attention to detail.

We believe that well-fitted clothing is more than just fabric and thread – it's confidence, self-expression, and comfort rolled into one. Whether you're looking for a simple alteration or a completely custom garment, our team approaches every project with the same level of care and expertise.

Our commitment extends beyond individual clients to our community. We source materials locally when possible, maintain sustainable practices in our workshop, and actively support other small businesses in Austin.
