    Never never never use this tailor to do anything for you. First all, it took him more than a month to hem my five jeans. It's summer and I didn't care but my biggest regrets of taking my bran new Joe's jeans and Rag and Bone jeans there is that they are all ruined. I have a pair of boot cut joe's jeans. I tried it on and fold the leg and made marks for him and told him I needed the length to be at the mark. All the other jeans are skinny jeans. He hemmed my boot leg jeans the same length as the skinny jeans! They not hang high at my ankle and they are not wearable. I took them back, he had to let all he fold in out and used the cut off part to sew and Length the jean but the end result is they are still a inch short. I can't wear heels with them and those jeans are $179 per pairs. My Rag and Bone jeans are $198 per pair and I sent two of them. They are abt 4 inches too long. He just folded the legs couple times to see the inside. All the extra length was at my ankle. How can anyone wear skinny jeans like that? I asked him to alter them right and he was angry and simply cut the inside part off and hand sew them on the legs. It is totally unacceptable. I also took a skirt from Lilly Pulitzer. It was a blue skirt and he used purple thread to sew. It was supposed to be sewed inside and flip out so u don't sew the sewing lines. He sewed from the outside and the sewing lines are so crooked that he missed a few spots and the fabric is not sewed together. I asked him to fix it and he was angry and told me I was picky and said he doesn't have thread to match and he would fix the sewing bunt with the same purple thread. I had to go home and look in my drawers and find the close color and provided the thread to him to fix it. After it has been fixed, it is still ugly and crooked. This is a brandnew skirt that coat $168! I also took a Lilly Pulitzer pink dress to make the collar smaller. Same thing: the thread obvious didn't match and sewing line on my collar, right in the front are so crooked and over ran( he missed the collar line and had to sew back and forth a few times to fix it made a big bunch of lines right under my chin! I asked him to fix. Again, he was angry and rude and told me he will never alter for me. I actually don't want him to do anything for me either. With the hundreds of dollars spent there, I now have three pairs of expensive designer's jeans completely ruined and an ugly skirt and dress I can never wear again. I don't bother to argue with him when I got my things. Just want everybody to know how bad he is. I'm considering to ask a lawyers to get my money paid for my items back from him but not Sure it if is worth the fight. Do not use this person unless your goal is to never wear your garment again.

    Is this seriously acceptable? Ridiculous

    Needed a last minute hem on a pair of dress slacks. Alex was great and had the pants ready when promised. Hem looked great.
