Eva Joan, a repair shop co-owned by Emma Villeneuve and Bjorn Eva Park, specializes in mending delicate garments while fostering an intimate relationship with customers. Opened in 2021, the shop combines repairs, alterations, and education, a concept the founders felt was lacking in their community. The duo, lacking formal tailoring experience but driven by passion, finds innovative ways to repair clothing, incorporating personal stories, such as transforming a wine stain into a decorative feature. Their business reflects a commitment to unique pieces and quality service while honoring their grandmothers’ legacies.
"It's a very intimate relationship; trust is required," Ms. Villeneuve said of repairing customers' sentimental garments. This insight underscores the careful attention they give to each piece.
The pair opened Eva Joan in 2021, a shop where mending, alterations, embroidery, and education coexist, filling a unique niche they felt was missing.
