We tried to lint roll it at home and went through 2 lint brushes trying to get the hair out. Still hair on it. I went in to nicely speak to the owner about it. She rudely stated that there's nothing they can do about and do I want my cleaning refund or not. If you have no issues, it's a great place. If there's a problem, the customer is left to deal with it. Would not recommend.

I went to pick it up on Saturday morning as scheduled. When I looked at the suit, I noticed the jacket had a crease pressed into the lapel, and as you will see in the pictures, there were other areas that look like they had just been missed in the pressing. I spoke with Julie who with her husband Andy are the owners. My family was scheduled to go out of town on Monday. Julie recognized that the jacket needed to be repressed and said that her husband Andy must not have inspected it when it was pressed. Julie said that they could get it re-pressed and either delivered to me by noon on Monday or I could pick it up from the store Monday morning by noon. She said that they would make it right. I felt that Julie was trying to do the right thing and mistakes happen. about an hour later, I got a call from Andy, her husband, who said that there was nothing wrong with the jacket, that he had pressed it himself, and that Julie, and two other customers said there was nothing wrong with the jacket. (Why other customers would be sharing their opinions is not clear to me. I think the pictures speak for themselves.). Andy also said that he couldn't get it re-pressed by Monday morning. He told me I either needed to pick up the jacket by noon on Saturday or that they would be open at eight on Monday and I could pick it up then. He said they would refund my money, but that they would not fix the problem. I told him I was not happy but he wasn't giving me any choice. I drove back on Saturday to get the jacket which ruined my planned Saturday morning breakfast with my son and family. On the way, I called Julie, told her I was coming back for the jacket,she said she had refunded the payment. I expressed to her that what really hurt was that her husband who had never seen the jacket said there was no problem when both she and I had seen the jacket and she had acknowledged there was a problem. When I got back to the store I told Julie that my breakfast with my son had been ruined. Her whole attitude had changed. She said she didn't want to hear it, what I had said was inappropriate and to get out of the store.

Thank goodness I was able to book my alterations with Carissa! She took this dress that I was not excited about at all and turned it back into the dress I fell in love with. I did a sew while you wait appointment with her since I was an out of town bride and it was well worth it! My mom and I stayed in her shop for about 6 hours one Friday a month or so before the wedding and she fit the dress to me, sewed, fit again, sewed, and fit again until it was perfect. It gave me such peace of mind seeing my dress transform in one day. Carissa also offers day-of services which I wish I had done. My husband stepped on my dress right after our first dance breaking 4 of 7 bussels. We had to saftey pin it back together and I wish Carissa would have been there to do a quick fix! Aside from my husband's misstep the dress was perfect all night long. If you need major alterations done Carissa is your seamstress!

I learned, through my experience with the Gilded Thimble, that it most certainly was not. Carissa walked me through the whole process of her vision to properly size my dress.

It was so perfect day of that people asked if it was custom. It basically was because of Carissa's perfect touch. Thank you to the Gilded Thimble!

After buying the suit at Jos Bank they suggested taking it up to Wayne because they didn't have a tailor at the moment. Wayne also later repaired the lining in my husband's Navy Pea Coat which had belonged to his father and was really special to us. We had others look at this coat and not want to do the job. So we have been so excited with how Wayne was able to use the original material and fix the lining leaving it as much like the original coat as possible. Wayne's place is a hole in the wall and he has irregular hours, but he was great to us and we will continue to give him business. And what an amazing life story this guy has.

Unfortunately I had a very similar experience to Robert. Wayne was highly recommended and I too…read morehad high hopes. I only needed two pairs of pants hemmed, so I felt good that my request seemed simple enough and wouldn't be a hassle. I delivered the pants and told him what I wanted. I stated clearly that I wanted a 31" inseam, so there wasn't a need for measuring or confusion. As Robert said, the shop is essentially in a closet and everything is disorganized. He took my name down on his note pad and a brief description of the pants I was leaving. He said it would be a week, which initially surprised me that it would take that long to hem approximately 2" off two pairs of pants, but I guess that's not for me to decide. I came back a week later and he barely, if at all, remembered me. He had to flip through his notebook to realize that he even had my pants and, in fact, had done nothing to them. He asked if I had to do anything around town because he could have them ready in two hours. At this point I was a little frustrated simply because my suspicions of it being an quick and easy job were all confirmed. I however did not get any discount on the price. I felt that I have to give at least two stars because the pants turned out fine. But I don't think I'll find another reason to trust my clothing to Wayne's unfortunately. Still looking for a good taillor in Lynchburg. I'm getting married in September and really want that suit to look great.
