Her story

From a sewing school in Poland to her own atelier.

Beata Dworak graduated from a sewing school in Poland in the 1990s. Several years later she came to the United States and worked for a number of tailors, learning the art of designing, cutting, fitting and finishing custom-made clothing.

She then spent ten years in a Greek tailor’s shop as the right hand of an older Italian master tailor. Watching him approach his craft with passion made her fall in love with the work.

What she loves most is the direct contact with each client: in a short time, a garment that could not be worn becomes one the client is proud of, and Beata sees the result on the client’s face right away.

The Maria Pinto years

Italian fabrics, very demanding clients.

Before opening Beatriss, Beata spent several years working for Maria Pinto, the contemporary American designer whose Chicago clients included:

Michelle ObamaOprah WinfreyBrooke ShieldsMarcia Gay Harden

That experience with luxurious fabrics and exacting clients gave Beata the confidence to open her own tailoring boutique in 2010. Today she works by appointment in Hoffman Estates with one assistant.

How Beata works

Private, personal, made to last.

Private appointments

Every client is seen one on one, by appointment, with time to talk through what the garment needs.

Creative advice

Beata suggests what can be changed, redesigned or added, from a new neckline to a new skirt.

Wear what you own

Altering the clothes you already have, instead of buying new ones, means less waste and more pieces you actually wear.
