MASTER TAILOR

Albert Lam

NYC Chinatown, Since 1978

HERITAGE

A Legacy Woven
Into Every Stitch

Albert Lam emigrated from Hong Kong to New York City's Chinatown in the late 1970s. He apprenticed with an Italian master tailor, learning the craft while working at a local garment factory to support his family.

In 1978, Albert and his wife opened their tailor shop on Lafayette Street. For over 40 years, they worked seven days a week, building a business through word of mouth — serving the community during the most memorable moments in the circle of life.

Their dedication attracted notable clients, including former NYC Mayor David Dinkins and Pastor Calvin Butts, who were Albert's friends for over 40 years, as well as comedian Ronny Chieng, who calls Albert his favorite tailor in NYC. Watch this video to learn more.

"Chinatown is an essential part of my life, as well as thousands of New Yorkers from all backgrounds, colors, creeds, and walks of life."
— ALBERT LAM

OUR PROCESS

Your Bespoke Journey

Consultation

We begin with a conversation about your lifestyle, occasions, and vision. Albert guides you through fabric selection from our curated range of fine wools, silks, and linens.

Measurements & Cutting

Precise measurements capture your unique geometry. A pattern is drafted exclusively for you, then hand-cut with tailor's shears — a skill perfected over decades.

Fittings & Refinement

You'll come in for fittings as the garment takes shape. Each fitting refines the cut until the suit moves with you, not against you.

Hand Finishing

Buttonholes are hand stitched, one loop at a time. The canvas is shaped to your chest. Every detail is attended to with the patience that only a master craftsman can offer.

Delivery

Your suit is delivered — uniquely yours in every detail. A garment that will last decades and become part of your family's story.
