Let me start of by saying Ana is the sweetest, if you are looking for REAL professionalism,…read moreexperience and talent - look no further! I cannot say enough good things about Ana, this lady is an angel! When I came to her, I had so much anxiety, and already started to believe it was my biggest mistake trying to design my own wedding dress after having multiple unprofessional issues with the prior designer before going to Ana. Ana reassured me I was in good hands and told me to have faith in her, soon enough I could tell I did not have to worry about a thing. From the moment we started to work together, Ana was helpful and couldn't have been more professional as she texted me regularly with updates, pictures, and was very flexible when scheduling each and every fitting. The dress came out exactly as I envisioned, I truly couldn't have been happier with the end result, all thanks to her work and commitment. I recommend Ana, to any bride that is looking to design her own wedding gown, and everyone in between that may need any sewing and alternations needed- she is the best! Comienzo con decir que Ana es la más dulce, si busca profesionalismo real, experiencia y talento, ¡no busque más! No puedo decir suficientes cosas buenas sobre Ana, Esta señora es un ángel! Cuando recurrí a ella, tenía mucha ansiedad y ya empezaba a creer que era mi mayor error intentar diseñar mi propio vestido de novia después de haber tenido múltiples problemas con la diseñadora antes de ir a Ana. Ana me aseguró que estaba en buenas manos y me dijo que tuviera fe en ella. No tardé en darme cuenta de que no tenía que preocuparme por nada. Desde el momento en que comenzamos a trabajar juntas, Ana fue útil y no pudo haber sido más profesional ya que me envió mensajes de texto con actualizaciones, imágenes y fue muy flexible al programar cada ajuste. El vestido salió exactamente como lo imaginé, realmente no podría haber estado más feliz con el resultado final, todo gracias a su trabajo y compromiso. Recomiendo a Ana, a cualquier novia que esté buscando diseñar su propio vestido de novia, y todos los que están en necesidad de coser y hacer alternancias, ¡ella es la mejor!

I've had Ana's shop bookmarked for some time, but didn't get to try her until very recently. I…read moreordered about 76 dresses for my best friend's wedding and didn't like any so I sent them all back. Then, I broke my foot so I ended up settling on something that would cover my unsightly boot. The dress had big balloon sleeves that were extremely long on me and ended with an ugly elastic at the wrist, so I knew I had to do something with them. I own a blouse with similar sleeves that end in a cuff, so I took the blouse with me when I dropped off the dress. Ana is lovely, honest and fair. She explained that it might not be possible to make the sleeves look like the blouse, especially in just a few days, and I appreciated her candor. She charged me a fair price and I left hoping the dress would look as nice as possible. I picked the dress up today and was amazed by how good the sleeves look. She made the cuff look exactly like the ones on the blouse and now it looks like a completely different dress! I am SO grateful to Ana, and will ABSOLUTELY be back! I am very particular about my clothing and get pieces altered often, so if I'm pleased, it says a lot! If you need something tailored, do not hesitate to give Ana a call. Just keep in mind, it's by appointment only!

She has a roomy fitting room that was adequate, however, I was surprised there were no noticeable hooks to hang clothes while trying them on. Tina is friendly and seems to be well versed in her craft. 18 years downtown if I translated correctly. While she understands some English, Spanish is definitely the preferred language. She requested about 10 days for the turn around. This worked for me, so I didn't need to ask for an earlier date. After picking up the Tux it was a better fit, but not the "best". I got a little lost with the translation to Spanish, but was later aided by her assistant who spoke great English. Due to the tux having a certain detail (vertical line) it was explained not much else could be done to take it in without compromising that look. I understood and took them at their world. Tina seems to know her craft well, but maybe due to the limitations of the piece could not get the more customized fit that I was hoping. I have a second less technical piece that may need altering soon, I may give her another try.

I'm writing to share my experience with Rex Fabrics. This is the first google review I have ever…read moreposted. I am so profoundly disturbed by my experience there I had to take the time to share it with others who might be thinking of shopping there or using their dress making services. DON'T!!! Our experience was quite appalling. My daughter is getting married and we went to Rex to purchase fabric for my Mother of the Bride dress. During the fabric selection process, the salesperson explained they also make dresses and would give a discount on the fabric if you have them make your dress. When starting the process they explained we would first come for measurements, the second fitting was to try on the "shell fabric" that would be a mockup of the dress. That is the first moment we should have been concerned. We spent considerable time explaining to them the shell did not fall correctly and the seamstress clearly was struggling to figure out how to make it work. We had to offer our own suggestions and offer modifications. The owner Jenny was supervising every meeting and completely emotionally withdrawn from the situation offering no solutions or recommendations. She did not care whatsoever that we would ultimately get the dress of our dreams. She is cold and all business. The next fitting was with the actual dress and then we knew we were in trouble. It did not resemble anything like the model we shared. It looked awful and they basically told us, take it or leave it. They said we used up our three fittings and they insisted they made the dress exactly as shown. IT WAS NOTHING LIKE THE MODEL. It looked terrible and my daughter explained that I only have one daughter and how important this dress was for the wedding. They did not care. It was obviously a pure business transaction for them. They have no business offering these services as they do not have the qualified seamstresses on staff or supervision. I decided I was not going to even fight for another fitting because I had zero confidence the seamstress knew what she was doing. Long story short, we took it to someone we have come to meet who is a highly experienced dress maker and immediately she explained they completely cut the dress incorrectly. The new seamstress said, what is done is done but I will still make it beautiful and she proceeded to make modifications. We picked up the dress yesterday and it is stunning!! I am so happy this new person created a beautiful dress I will be proud and thrilled to wear at my daughter's wedding....but it also cost me more money to achieve the result Rex should have done in the first place. In closing I truly want to warn others who might be considering working with Rex for dress making services.
