This photograph from the 1930s is the oldest record we have of our grandmother’s work.

Because of her passion and unmatched skill, Tom Sons International Pleating was born.

Five generations. Ninety years of dedication. A lifetime of providing flawless craftsmanship to the fashion industry.

In a world of automation, we remain one of the absolute oldest existing pleating houses in the world. We don’t just fold fabric; we carry forward a living history.

Pleated with care for a once-in-a-lifetime moment.

This wedding piece by Silk Brow Bridal showcases our craftsmanship. We believe a wedding dress should do more than just fit the occasion. It should reflect your story and the emotion of stepping into a new chapter of life. That is why every piece we create is handled with care, patience, and a deep appreciation for the memories it will become part of.

Today we honor the legacy of Mother Teresa on her birthday and celebrate the International Day of Giving. She reminded us that “It’s not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving.”

The color gold shines for children’s cancer awareness, and this heart is a reminder that true giving comes from love, compassion, and hope.Let’s carry that spirit forward in every act, big or small. 🙏✨

Did you know we also offer CNC cutting for leather? 👀

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) cutting means a computer guides the blade with exact precision giving you perfectly consistent cuts every time. This allows us to create:
• Ultra-fine cuts (like this rare 1/8” leather fringe ✂️)
• Custom shapes (like S-curves, waves, or other patterns)
• Shaped seams that fit seamlessly into your garment

With CNC cutting, your design isn’t limited to what’s available on the market — we cut exactly what you need.

📍 Pleated (and cut) with love in NYC.
