Our Story Of Expert Tailoring, Precision Craftsmanship & Personalized Service

Soumia Rachdi’s love for dressmaking began in the vibrant streets of Casablanca, Morocco—where rich fabrics and master stitching told stories of their own. That childhood passion led her to study fashion design in Italy and France, honing her craft alongside European couture artisans.

Today, Soumia brings that rare blend of Moroccan soul and European precision to downtown Milford, Connecticut, at Casablanca Tailor Shop.

She treats every garment as a work of art—whether it’s a wedding gown, a vintage heirloom, or a last-minute fix. Brides trust her like family. Grooms and men guests appreciate her speed and warmth when it comes to their tuxedo rentals or suit tailoring. She sits with every client, listens to their vision, and works her magic—whether it's transforming a vintage heirloom, perfecting a wedding dress, or rescuing a seemingly "un-workable" gown. With very many happy customers and a simple philosophy—no job is too small or too big—Soumia has turned her shop into a beloved community haven.

Come visit us across from the Milford train station. Let a little Moroccan magic give you the perfect fit.
