Seamstress for the girlies

Hi! My name is Paulina, I’m the person behind “That Bushwick Seamstress”, which is the name of my sewing studio located in the heart of Bushwick, NY.

I am a professional seamstress with over 10 years of experience, and my focus is on feminine wear, meaning ANY piece of clothing that was made with the intention of dressing a woman.

Now, I’m definitely not a traditional person. My services are catered to cis, trans, and non binary people. I’m also more than happy to welcome busy moms with their children at my studio, as I know life is already hard in a city like NY (I’m a mom as well) . Basically I aim to create a safe space here, and provide the best services I can.

My focus as a professional seamstress is to make people feel good in their own skin, understanding that bodies are in constant change and we need to embrace it rather than trying to stop it. I don’t believe in standard sizes as there is no such thing as a standard body, so let’s make your clothes fit YOU!

Paulina.
