Smoking Iron Alterations

I am Michael Dollinger, owner and operator of this multifaceted tailor shop in Broad Ripple Village. I have been serving the Indianapolis area for 35+ years. Having learned the tailoring trade from my father, I started my professional career at Redwood & Ross in 1981. In 1987 I helped to open the mens tailor shop at Jacobson's Department store. I was able to expand my craft by helping with ladies alterations in bridal and business wear. The name "Smoking Iron" comes from the old-time charcoal burning irons that I have and use to demonstrate 18th and 19th century tailoring techniques at reenactments. Though my shop is filled with antique tools, I do have modern sewing machines and irons to alter, fit, or refashion your wardrobe!
