Our Story


My name is Carmine Sordillo. Back in mid 60’s, I moved to the U.S. to start a new adventure. I traveled with a dream to become the best tailor. This dream inhabited in my heart since I was a youngster. I fell in love with tailoring at a very tender age; and as a result, I became an apprentice in Italy. I did not know, at the time, that moving across oceans from Italy would change my life. In 1968, I opened my own shop. Sordillo’s Sartoria Su Misura was born as my patience to find the right tailor for my clothes wore out. At Sordillo’s, my passion is tailoring, menswear and su misura.

In Italian, the term ‘Su Misura’ means tailor-made. It stands for precision, artistry, and uncompromising attention to detail. The sensory grace of Italian fashion and design is grounded in a way of life that savors and celebrates the five senses. Much has changed in the past 48 years, but my work has expanded, evolved, and gotten better. The tradition to make fine clothes continues in my new magnificent setting on 364 Boylston Street, Boston, Ma 02116.”

I stay on the cutting edge of tailoring, custom-made and menswear and I work with the finest fabrics such as Loro Piana, Zegna, Vitale Barbers Cononico and Ariston, among others, so that you don’t have to search. I believe in a dressing to impress to make the right connection and the right impression. I tell my clients, “When you wear my suit for a job interview or a meeting, my suit speaks for you.” As previously stated, my quality and service are unmatched.
As the saying goes, “The coat does not make the monk, but the monk is recognized by his coat.” With that said, my clients are my top priority. I am always striving to be better so my clients achieve more.

The quality and service of my work speak for itself and this is why my clients have faithfully remained with Sordillo’s despite the fact that I have changed locations a few times. I am always present to give personal advice to clients on latest fashion trends and styles.

As I always say, La qualita Fa L’eleganze (The quality makes elegance). I am inviting you to join my creations result of real projects, still characterized by a loving craftsmanship, able to anticipate trends and tastes of the today. Shop online or come to the shop to personally meet me and to try on clothes that touch the world of high fashion, while enjoying a Prosecco or an Espresso!
