Therefore I got a new suit made for me at an amazing tailor in Chapel Hill (thanks Julian's). Unfortunately, due to timing, I was not able to use them for alterations. I live in a small town and thought I'd like to take the alterations to a "professional" location in Asheville. Therefore I took the suit to Mary's based on the great recommendations here. I asked for the pants to be CUFFED, fairly simple request. I was told they would be ready to pick up 1 week later. I got a call asking me to come 2 days later. When I arrived my pants were not done. I arrived tonight to pick up the pants on the way to a major meeting to find that they WERE NOT CUFFED!!! The owner looked at the ticket, said "oh, sorry" and then told me there was no way to correct it (since the remaining fabric was in my pocket). The hemming job is adequate. Honestly, they took the time to kneel on the floor and mark my pants with chalk but couldn't get my request straight?? This is a lot different than overlooking my steak, I doubt they are buying my a new suit. Of course, they still charged me for the service of messing up my custom order suit.

The dress alteration is beautifully done, but I left feeling like I was scammed.

When I mentioned the difference in what was quoted I was told she forgot to tell me about certain fees... well that's why I asked how much it would be, so I could budget accordingly. I didn't have $530 for a dress alteration.

I brought my dresses just 2 ​months before I left the country for my wedding. She was happy to get me in (but anyone reading this, please do be mindful of the time you have, because this was Not during wedding season. January-Feb., So I got lucky). Ace altered my dresses to fit me perfectly in all places and she was able to make it so I had some cleavage in one (which I don't usually get in normal bras/clothes anymore), and I was extremely pleased! Ace is friendly and knowledgeable and didn't hesitate one move, which made me feel comfortable and confident that I was in good hands. I would highly recommend her for dress alterations and will go back for any other future alterations I need.

I recently took a brand new pant suit to Misha's to have both the sleeves and legs shortened and…read morethe metal clips at the wais eased. When I collected it, one sleeve puckered and would not lie flat, the stitching was incomplete revealing a gaping hole, and the black threads (on a light blue suit) were clearly visible. The pants had been sewn with what could only be described as a "mess" of black stitches which were also visible from the right side. The newly added metal clips were drowned in stitches and the original clips had not been removed. I hadn't realized it was such a mess until I got it home. Reluctant to take it back, I called and Misha insisted on fixing it although he didn't fix the clips. My overall takeaway was: if you need something altered properly, don't take it to Misha!

I had a mixed experience. I called for a quote on a simple bridesmaid dress but was told to come…read morein. After giving them my dress, they quoted $300 for hem, waist, and bust alterations. The hem (2-3 layers) alone was $250, with the rest $50. When I asked, they said hems start at $150. Why not say that over the phone, then? Other bridesmaids paid around $60 for hems, so that price felt excessive. After a 10% discount and scaling back the work to bust, waist, and only one hem layer, I paid $211. The finished dress fit very well, and the seamstress actually hemmed all layers at no extra charge, which I appreciated. Turnaround was also fast (about 1-2 weeks). However, when I picked it up I noticed a large snag in the chiffon. The front desk said, "You already paid for it, so..." before taking it to the seamstress, which was concerning given their strict policies: full payment required BEFORE work begins, and NO fit adjustments without additional charges (unless a hem comes loose.) The seamstress fixed the snag, though. They were vague in their texts and commitment to providing a good result. I wanted to protect myself, so I asked "If I gain or lose 0 weight, it'll fit as pinned, correct?" And only then, did they give me an explicit "Yes." The policies are not customer friendly, their room for accountability was very limited, and the pricing was high compared to other shops, though the final workmanship and turnaround were good. The business might a fit for convenience/people who have money to lose. OR they are a small business that's been burned before and has now adopted broad policies and protections.
