I met Jessica on 6/10 needing two dresses hemmed up for a wedding in September…read more We had our fitting scheduled for 6/11 but it was rescheduled on her end for 6/20. We had the fitting at her home where she conducts her business. She was very friendly in person. On 9/9 I texted her asking if she had time to fit another dress in for a hem job to be completed by 9/29 as I was going on vacation and wanted to wear the new dress I bought, knowing it was only a few weeks- I asked if a last minute hem was possible, she said it was and we arranged for it to be dropped off 9/10. I picked up my initial two dresses 9/25 with no problem and confirmed the third would be ready 9/29. On 9/29 I messaged asking when I could come by to pick up the dress to which she replied she had not started it and could have it done by 9/30. I was unable to pick up 9/30 as my flight left the country then. So I told her I'd pick it up when I got back into town- disappointed I wouldn't have my dress but not the end of the world. I got back into town and texted 10/17 asking when I could get the dress. I didn't receive a reply, I messaged a week later 10/23 when I could get the dress, and if it wasn't ready I still wanted it (at this point it had been almost a month since it was initially due to be done). She replied that I could come 10/24 to get the dress, and asked "if she was able to hem it, did I want her to do so". After almost a month of having my dress she hadn't even touched it yet, despite her offering to have it done by 9/30 I told her if she hadn't started it don't worry about it- I'll come get it anyways, planning to take it elsewhere. She messaged me 10/24 telling me she did in-fact end up hemming it and I picked it up that day. While she did apologize over text for not having it done by the due date back on 9/29, she did not mention or apologize in person for it being a month late I understand the fall is considered "wedding" season but over-committing and not meeting pick-up dates despite assuring it would be fine, and not even doing the hem until the night before I told you I wanted to pick it up is super frustrating. Communication wasn't great either, often waiting awhile to hear back over texts despite it being her preferred method of communication. While my first experience was good and everything was done in time, the second experience did leave a bad feeling about going back for future alteration needs.

I contacted her a few weeks before my elopement after realizing my dress needed hemming. She called me back immediately and fit me into her schedule the next day. During both our phone and office consultations, it was clear she genuinely cares about her clients. She completed the alteration in just a few days, which was such a relief during the busy wedding prep. When I later asked if she could adjust the back length, she kindly accommodated me without hesitation. Even fitting me in on her day off to make sure everything was perfect. The final result absolutely blew me away. What I thought was impossible, Valentina made happen, and I was nearly in tears seeing my dream dress brought to life. Valentina's skill, flexibility, and genuine kindness are unmatched. I will be bringing all my future alteration needs to her. If you're looking for the best, look no further, you'll be so glad you chose Valentina!

The lady, I wish I knew her name, is nice and does a great job. FINALLY...a tailor that doesn't make my pants too short. I love this place. I don't know why anyone would have the audacity to try and negotiate someone's price list for their business. This isn't like buying a car. If you don't like the price, go somewhere else. I've gone once and they were nice, professional and did great work. I'm very short and have tons of experience with tailor shops. Like any business, they set a price and I would be more than happy to pay $20 to get a zipper replaced from this lady, judging how she handled my pants.

Prices are great, and they get the work done when they say they will. You should note that they are often busy, so if you need something done expect a 7-10 day wait. However, I believe they MIGHT put a rush on your order for a fee (they offered this to me once, but I declined and chose to wait). Overall: awesome local biz, good prices, and great work!

If any of my employees treated anyone like that- they would have been fired!!!!!! It took me about 20 minutes to find the parking space to go downstairs underneath the building down the hallway near a knife shop to even find their hole in the wall. I took it to the the Martinez Cleaners near State Street and they were so sweet and said they would do it no problem. They love the idea that my grandson will have my giraffe T-shirt when he comes to visit as a night shirt To have this couple treat me that way and tell me to go away... Was very insulting! I have friends that do own businesses from Thailand, China and Japan and have only been treated me and others, sweet and kind and with respect as I give them. It was as though I was in the middle of a Seinfeld episode with a soup Nazi saying "no soup for you, go away, go away" - I stood there, totally in shock and I said paused and said in my heart- I will never go back and I will tell other people-stay away, they're not nice! !!" so I will take my money somewhere else where it's appreciated!.
