Women tend to play down a man's measurements - but, men know that inches really matter in both length and girth - to a tailor. [What were you thinking? For shame.] A few months ago, I had to get into full ceremonial garb (i.e. a business suit) for an occasion. But, I discovered that, since my last occasion, my waistline had expanded thanks to a slowing metabolism. Usually, I'm coming here to have new pants hemmed and cuffed since the mother/daughter team that owns and operates this shop does quality work, at a fair price, and with a pretty quick turnaround of usually a week. Now, I know in our "instant gratification is not fast enough" society, a week seems like a long time but, if you went without the new pants for all of this time, what's another week to have them fit properly? Anyway, since I had a pair of suit pants that needed alteration due to my added girth (that's what he said!), I called up the shop and explained the issue. The young lady said that it would run $12 plus tax if there was enough material to make it happen and take the usual week. When I explained that I needed it for a funeral, she quickly volunteered that she could do it in 2 days. Excellent customer friendly attitude! True to her word, she had them fluffed out by the extra amount that I needed - otherwise, my backup plan was to put on my man-girdle (made of the finest whalebone) to get into the pants. They have a couple of changing rooms if you want to try on your new duds and do your own runway walk, too. For inseam jobs, you can bring in a pair that fit just right and she'll use it to measure if you want to avoid the awkward touching. A posted sign says "Cash payment in advance" but she sometimes lets you slide if she likes your face - so be polite. They may accept credit cards but I usually pay in cash in advance to help them avoid the fees. Bring some cash dollars and make it rain - but not so much with the golden dollar coins since they tend to hurt on impact. So, if you gained a little girth where it kind of counts, don't be afraid to talk about it - with your tailor. Four fully fluffed stars. read more

Save your money and do not go here, her job is horrible, I tried to give her a chance and let her fix the problem twice, dropped of jeans and dresses and The way that she fixed/altered the clothes looks very unprofessional I could've easily bought a sewing machine and did it myself with the way she left my clothing. One of the dresses I had her fix ripped right in front of her and she decided to lie and say, that was a design that she created because it's the only way the dress could fit me. She charged me extra to hem all my jeans with the "original" hem/thread. And with the pictures I posted it looks nothing original and very poorly done. read more

So upsetting .. Dropped a shirt off on Tuesday, 6/4, to be repaired. She said to come back at 1 PM on Thursday, 6/6. Came back at that time and she had not even started on it. Said to come back in one hour.. Started calling her in afternoon and there was no answer... Finally picked up my shirt today and it looks like crap. She makes up prices which is very upsetting also.. Very convenient that she's cash only....otherwise i would be disputing the charge. Am telling you right now, Do not go to this place for anything.She's a very rude lady.. Given you forewarning..do not go there for anything.. read more

TLDR: Save your time & money & go elsewhere. Cons: took some wide leg dress pants in to adjust the waist -- maybe an inch smaller total. She altered them so poorly i couldn't pull them past my thighs! Her excuse was she thought my pants had a zipper (?!?) & her fix was to add a zipper and then charge me more $$! (I should add these pants are an ELASTIC waist. Or were. An easy fix could've been to adjust the elastic...) When I argued I shouldn't have to pay extra for her mistake, she said she was charging more bc my pants had 2 layers & it cost extra to hem them. Umm not telling you how to run your business, but you should have checked that before quoting me anything! Anyway, pants are fixed, now with a hook & zipper that's clearly been used (paint peeling off). Hem is crooked & uneven. Waist is snagged. Stitching looks like an amateur did it. Honestly these brand new, tags-on pants now look like I've worn them for years. Cool. Pro: Seemed like a good price initially, tailor was nice, pricing might be negotiable, pants fit now.... read more

All Style Tailors & Alterations - Snagged waist, chipped zipper, not even sown in properly. No idea what the stitch on the left is -- original to the pants or she added it??? - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pissed is a understatement! I've used your business before. Waassyyuy before! I have charges on my credit card on 11/17 from your company. But I haven't used your company in November. Been in the hospital why I didn't do it sooner. This transaction wrecked my bills. Overdraft etc etc You're going to pay for this and all the inconvenience you've caused. read more

Trusting the experiences of Yelpers, I took a pair of dresses to this tailor in February. Note the sign only says "Tailor" now, so I'm not sure if ownership has changed from when the reviews were good (the All Style part from the previously taken picture is now gone). Dress 1: The stitching was uneven. On this dress at least it didn't show on the outside (comments I got when I mentioned the uneven stitching included: "It look fine on outside! Why you look inside?" and "You too picky! Other people not that picky!"). I told her my concern was that the stitching, being loose in some areas, would come out. She informed me that wouldn't happen and then said she would fix it for free if it came loose. However, she wouldn't give me anything in writing, not even a receipt to show that I had gotten it altered at her place to begin with. So I think she could easily claim not to have ever seen the dress before if the stitching came loose and I brought it back. Dress 2: The hem was sewn unevenly. Black stitches showed through the dress on the front side. The machine she used apparently pulled on the fabric and there are now also white streaks on the front. Comments I got when I pointed that out: "That how it look before!" Luckily the cut-off original hem was still in her scrap pile. She then said: "I don't notice it before you say it." When I brought up my concern that the fabric was damaged: "The machine do it like this. What you want me do? I have no choice!" Apparently, a machine that could make it like the original hem costs a lot of money. I told her if she'd told me this, I wouldn't have had it hemmed to begin with. Then she said, "It not my fault! It your cloth!" She did offer to fix what she'd messed up: "You give me 10 dollars more, I fix it for you. That good deal for you." So she potentially ruined the fabric on the hem of my dress and didn't even notice when she was doing it, and then apparently didn't check to see what the final result of her work was, and she demands even more money to fix what she messed up. I told her I was very unhappy with this situation. She yelled, called me "mean", and told me I was just trying to get her to work for free, and never to come back. I wouldn't come back even if she did my tailoring for free--the Anthropologie dress she's possibly ruined is worth a lot more than she was trying to charge me ($40). She doesn't even understand why I'm upset--the dress would have been fine the way it was if she'd just told me she CAN'T HANDLE IT with her machine. I only wanted it hemmed about an inch and a half, and the midi look is in anyway. Also, when I took this to another tailor to fix, IT WAS HEMMED OVER AN INCH LONGER ON THE LEFT SIDE. Awkward. She couldn't even hem it the same length all the way around. So, in summary. Unprofessional. Low standards for quality. Does not stand behind her work. Blames the customer's fabric when she messes up and doesn't check her results. Demands more money to fix problems she's created. Doesn't know her limits when she's accepting work (and in fact apparently didn't even look at the hem itself before accepting the work, because she later said she didn't realize either of the hems were stitched the way they were originally). She might do okay with jeans, but I wouldn't bring her anything worth more than 20 bucks to fix in case she ruins it. I did pay her some money for the time she spent, because I'm "mean" like that. In a fair world she would have paid me for the damages to my dress, but unfortunately that's not how the tailoring business works. Buyer beware! I promised her I would post pictures of her work and let future customers decide if they want to try her. So, here you are. read more

I would give this place negative star if possible. My prom dress that I bought online was too big for me, so I brought it here after I read all the wonderful reviews. Turned out, the quality was horrible. My dress was ruined. The top was a LITTLE loose, the waist was a LITTLE tight and pulled at the top half of the dress a LITTLE. She had to take off the draping in front when she fixed the waist and sewed it on a LITTLE crooked and pulled at the dress. The sewing lines were a LITTLE crooked, she blamed it on my dress was too heavy that it kept slipping off the workstation. The pow was ugly, luckily I just had to cut the thread and re-tie it. However, all the other "LITTLE wrongs" turned into "a BIG wrong". Moneys is not papers, and it was threw in the trash. I went back for a second alteration since she said she'd do it. It still the same on me, tight right where the bodice and the dress met. She said, "it look fit, it must be fit, I don't know why you feel tight". Sooooo, I was not even a bit happy. She and my mom both talked how it because I bought it online, and she talked while sewing it up like I wasn't even there when I was right there at front table. The attitude she give me was unbelievable, I never meet someone with such a bad customer service. I couldn't really talk back because Asian I am, I was raised to be respectful in the present of elder. When I went home, I found a fucking hole in the liners between the bodice and the dress because she didn't properly sew it back in, and I'm too tired to go back because I might actually start yelling. If you have normal daily clothes or whatever I think you can come here (or not), but if you want formal dresses and suits alterations, DO NOT come here. I warned you. read more

HORRIBLE! The first thing out of seamstress mouth was "you need to loose weight" HORRIBLE service and the shop stinks. I would never recommend anyone to this place, unless you are in the mood for some very rude customer service. read more

I have been a customer for years. (10?...15?) when I lived in Meyerland...I found this little gem on Hillcroft. Now that the hubby and I live in Richmond ...I still drive here to have work done. Friendly, professional, prompt. No request is ever too big or too small...from patched jeans, altered prom dresses..and even a total remake of a dress I thought was ready for the "give away" box...they have done it all. And...low prices. Don't think twice...just go. :) read more

I dropped off a dress to have the zipper repaired, and they asked for pre-payment. Now I know why. The repair was AWFUL. The color did not even match the color of the dress, and it looks worse than before I took it to them. I will not be coming back. This is the second item I have taken there that they have done a poor job on. VERY disappointed. read more

All Style Tailors & Alterations - Awful repair job. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Houston, Texas

The lady who works here is amazinggg!! She's super friendly and funny; we'd have lovely conversations during fittings, and she would recommend what's best for my figure. I've brought in over 25 dresses and skirts for her to hem, and it comes back perfectly EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!! I'm 5'2 and petite, so everything runs really long and loose on me. The tailor would work her magic, and my dresses come out looking like a million bucks because they now fit me like a glove! read more

This lady works miracles! I brought a beaded ballgown to her 2 days before I needed it for a wedding out of town and she not only made it fit like a glove, price could not be beat!!! read more

I was only in here for maybe two minutes but the lady that helped me was so kind and professional. I needed measurements and had called all over and everyone wanted to charge. I called her and she said of course come in. She was so kind and helpful. I will definitely return with alterations as I have many things that need attention and I enjoyed her kindness. read more

Good job. Very reasonable prices. Nice lady. 2 jeans hemmed up with no issues. Will be back.

easy job to hem some pants and they did a lousy job and you can see where the alterations were made. Not Going back!

Very satisfied with the workmanship by the staff at this shop. They do a quality job on alterations and are well priced. They are my go-to tailor. read more

They did an amazing job adding a hem to a cocktail dress to make it respectable at a family wedding. B/c there wasn't enough internal hem, they had to add separate satin fabric and a separate lace overlay that I gave them - it was somewhat complicated, but they did a great job in less than a week and it was very affordable (under $30). This shop is out of my way, but I plan to return for any future tailoring. read more

I have used this shop for about 10 years now, and have found them to be very reasonable and reliable. I'd recommend them!

Excellent prices. Courteous. They seem to strive to please. Well worth the 20 minute drive from my Galleria-area home. Alterations near my home would have been double the All Style pricing. read more

I came here based off the reviews and proximity to my work. Had to go during lunch hour since they do not open early or stay late. I came to have a dress taken in at the top. Very nice lady. She took up the straps too or else dress would fall off my shoulders. All for $50. Was ready in less than a week and looks great. read more

I have had many pairs of pants and skirts hemmed here over the past several years, and they always turn out great. Better prices than other places I checked. Highly recommend. read more
