The Legacy and Evolution of Best Fit Luxury Tailoring
Best Fit began in 1996, when Lyudmila Sletkova, a professional tailor from St. Petersburg, Russia, realized her vision of creating a high-end tailoring atelier on Boston’s renowned Newbury Street. Her mission was clear: to offer a place where clients could trust their most valued garments—pieces requiring precision, skill, and an expert eye. The name Best Fit emerged naturally from this promise: every client, every garment, meticulously tailored to perfection.
From the beginning, Best Fit distinguished itself through exceptional craftsmanship. Lyudmila assembled a team of highly trained tailors from around the world—professionals with formal education, decades of hands-on experience, and a shared dedication to excellence. Over the years, this talented team became the heart of the atelier, mastering everything from simple alterations to the most complex couture transformations. Their artistry, creativity, and personal approach to each client earned Best Fit its reputation as one of Boston’s premier tailoring destinations.
As the business grew, so did its environment. Best Fit expanded into a larger, more elegant studio on Newbury Street—bright, refined, and welcoming, complete with spacious fitting rooms and large bay windows. The ambiance became an essential part of the experience, designed to ensure comfort, privacy, and a sense of luxury for every guest.
A New Chapter — The Transition to Sergio and Rose
In June 2021, Best Fit entered a new era when the business was acquired by Sergio Ferraz and Rosemeri “Rose” Alexandre. As experienced entrepreneurs in the tailoring and alterations industry, Sergio and Rose embraced the atelier’s rich heritage while introducing a renewed vision for the future.
Their leadership brought a fresh commitment to craftsmanship, customer care, and modern refinement. Under their guidance, the brand evolved into Best Fit Luxury Tailoring, honoring the atelier’s original foundation while expanding its capabilities, technology, and service philosophy. With Rose’s deep expertise as Production Director and Sergio’s strategic approach to business development, the atelier continues to flourish—upholding the same high standards while preparing for the next generation of luxury tailoring.
Today, Best Fit remains true to its legacy: exceptional craftsmanship, personalized service, and an unwavering commitment to quality. With a dedicated team, an elevated brand identity, and a clear vision for the future, Best Fit Luxury Tailoring continues to serve Boston’s most discerning clientele with the precision and artistry that have defined it for nearly three decades.
