    Gen did an amazing job on my dress! I am 4'10" and very indecisive, so picking a wedding dress was a challenge. I ended up regretting my choice, but Gen was able to transform the dress into the dress of my dreams! By the time she was done with it the dress was perfect. She changed the shape from fit and flare to mermaid, removed the straps and made new lace ones, removed beading and added lace, and changed the cut of the back. I walked out with basically a custom made dress, and for a very reasonable price. We did have one glitch- I asked for a veil to be made as part of the package, and on pick up day one week before the wedding it was not done. She handled this situation extremely well though- she ran around shopping for matching lace and texting me options, then overnighted me more than one option. Her excellent customer service more than made up for the original problem. I received so many compliments on my dress and was so excited to wear it!

    Look at how beautiful she made my daughters dress look.

    Absolutely terrible experience! We were referred to this alteration place by another tailor who was…read morebooked up due to prom season. The women here are kind, but that's about the only good thing I can say. I honestly don't know if they're inexperienced or just have never worked with a Black woman's curves before, but not one, not two, but three of my dresses were completely botched. I also had a top altered and it came back lopsided. After the first round of alterations, the owner tried to gaslight me, saying they had only adjusted the strap for my burgundy dress (which was never the main issue). I initially asked for the sides to be taken in because the bust area was too big, but somehow, that got lost in translation. So I paid AGAIN, for all to be fixed and what I got back was even worse. Everything felt rushed, uneven, and downright sloppy. I bawled my eyes out because these dresses were meant for my birthday trip. The white dress? It was the most horrendous one, imagine the outline of Sarah Baartman on a modern-day garment. That's how distorted the shape was. Even after a third attempt, the seams were still crooked and the dress was unwearable. I'm now left dressless for my trip and out of money. If I could give this place zero stars, I would.

    Dawt did the alterations for my daughter's wedding dress, my dress and my other daughter's…read morebridesmaid dress in September. Dawt is extremely professional and meticulous. The wedding dress came out perfect and the bustle stayed in place all night long. I would recommend her for any alterations, especially for important occasions.
