See the work Book a fitting
Meanwhile, in a small shop off East Cesar Chavez, a needle threads a hem that will travel to London on opening night.

Custom costumes. Alterations. Actual craft.

Hook and Eye Company builds and alters garments for theater, film, commercial commissions, and the person who walked in with a first-wedding hem. We work with our hands. We take pride in what we hand you back.

If your grandmother taught you what a good seam looks like — you are in the right place. If she didn't, that's fine too. We'll show you.

LEGO® Texas Rose A24 The Globe AMC Austin Opera
The shop, late afternoon. Three pieces on forms. One on the machine. One on the bench for hand-finish.

You're hiring the shop.

Four of us. One workroom. Everything we build passes through more than one pair of hands before it ships — which is how it should be, and which is why it fits.

We are not an assembly line and we are not a boutique. We are a small shop that takes the work seriously and the people seriously, in roughly that order.
