Anyone know an amazing tailor/seamstress?

So I tried on some of my old business suits which I haven't worn in a while and realize I'm wayyyy too small for them (Went from a size 4/6 to a size 2 now). Does anyone know an amazing tailor in the West Toronto/Mississauga area? Also, what's your experience with them as well-tailored women's suits are difficult to alter I hear.

Basically I spent far too much on them to be ruined and don't want to waste too much more money on new suits...I'll maybe buy one or two more during my next trip down south.

Thanks!!

I have fit womens suits before, and you're right - they are very hard to alter when you're talking about that big of a drop in size.

Even the best tailor can only do so much to it, and after spending a fair amount of money, there is no guarantee you will like how they turn out.

I would stick to your plan of buying one or two on your trip in your current size, and leave the other ones in the closet (in case you gain some weight back).
