Update for 12/2024: my husband lost weight and Bonnie was able to take in his pants beautifully! Instead of having to buy new pants, she was able to take them in at the waist and seam so that you can't even tell. Saved us a ton of $$ because now he doesn't have to buy all new pants.

The owner of this business was very professional, observant, and completed alterations on each piece with exceptional attention to detail. She was reasonably priced for the quality work and even made sure to show me why a snap on clasp is more secure and will last longer than a hook. The Theory wool skirt was impressively hemmed around the sides and length was perfect. It has a delicate lining, so I appreciate the extra time spent to make it look right on the inside as well as the exterior. My Derek Lam tank has some thick braiding so it must have been hand sewn vs machine. The spacing in my armpit area was just right. With pieces like this on petite women, a few millimeters off can become a huge error/incorrect fit. I am very happy about each of my pieces and plan to return with more alterations now that Ive found someone I can trust.

Wedding dress: after (KeLi Photography)

Bonnie absolutely saved the day when it came to my wedding dress! The dress shop ordered a size that was completely inappropriate (see images), and most tailors wouldn't touch it. Bonnie came up with a plan that only a true dressmaker could accomplish and she executed flawlessly. It fit like a GLOVE, and the bustle she made worked perfectly as well. My mom and I have taken a dozen other everyday items to her as well and she nails it every time. Would trust this woman with any garment for any occasion! (Professional images by KeLi Photography)

Bonnie added curves, but kept the dress comfy!

Bonnie is spectacular. You would be crazy to take your wedding dress anywhere else. It took us about 7 fittings to get my Vera Wang dress (from David's Bridal) JUST RIGHT, but she stuck with me, did everything in perfect time, and helped to guide me through the process while listening to exactly what I wanted. It is clear from day one that she has decades of experience and that you are leaving your dress in excellent hands. Every time I came in I found something else that I wanted to be let out a half inch or lifted a smidge, or whatever and she was completely understanding. She wants you to look and feel SPECTACULAR on your big day... truly. She restitched the hand sewn lace, added cap sleeves, worked with six layers of difficult fabric, and made my dress everything I could ever wanted it it be and more... all for a very agreeable price. Bonnie, thank you thank you thank you for everything. My dress was beyond PERFECT... and I hardly ever think anything is perfect! I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day and I was comfortable too!! You've got yourself a customer for life.

bonnie did an amazing job tailoring my bhldn wedding dress! it fit perfectly

I brought in my bhldn (sawyer gown) wedding dress to bonnie. Initially I felt concerned it was too tight around the waist- she advised me to exchange it for a size up and from there was able to make it fit absolutely perfectly. I went for several fittings and each time and noticed small tiny details and made sure to fix them (wrinkling on the front, the length, etc). She made a bustle as well. I ultimately also brought in a skirt to wear on top, last minute and she was able to make it fit and put little hooks on it to make sure it held in place. At the end, I feel so happy and confident in my wedding dress and so excited to wear it - all thanks to bonnie and her teams amazing work!! They were absolutely amazing as well in terms of being accommodating with times to come in, staying late some days to make sure I could come in. I would definitely come back any time!!! Highly highly recommend bonnie and her team for any tailoring needs!

Given that I always receive complements, I think her skill proves that a well-fitting garment flatters every frame.

When I relocated to Brighton three years ago, I began searching for cleaners conveniently located…read morenear my home. This would allow me to pick up my clothes while running errands. I discovered Linh Cleaners and have been a loyal customer ever since. However, this loyalty did not come without its challenges and drama. Linh would often make excuses for the extra stains found on your clothes while in his care, whether a sweater was ruined or had particles on it or if he misled you after you provided specific instructions on how you wanted your jacket or pants hemmed. Linh tends to do as he pleases, and when he damages your belongings or fails to clean them properly, it's somehow your fault. He also loves to pass judgment on you if you are a person of color based on the experiences of other people of color who have frequented his business. For someone like me who brings him clothes every week for dry cleaning and outfits to be tailored, he often makes remarks like, "Oh, you are fancy," "You party a lot, or You like money." Unbeknownst to him, I am in ministry, and as a minister, I take great pride in keeping my shirts clean and my suits fresh. I ignored this because I needed my clothes cleaned, and he was a 10-minute walk from my home. After six brand new jackets were sent to him to be tailored four, he did his way, ignoring my instructions. He soiled a brand new white collar shirt and said, "It was the material or something I wore." Two brand new chinos with tags sent for him to be tailored ended up with oil stains on them, and he said I didn't notice the stains when I purchased them (Yea, I know)! All of the stuff he ruined he never offered a refund. LINH is a lousy businessman, liar, racist, and narcissistic person. If you value your belongings and work hard for them, avoid doing business at all costs. He will never admit his wrongs and would rather lose business. Why did it take me three years? Because I do not like change, and I am an optimistic person who is loyal to a fault! But its 2025 And I chose me! Do not bring your clothes to LINH CLEANERS. He doesn't care about your stuff, just the money.

He said he could do it in a few days, but I ended up going without my primary coat for a week because he kept lengthening the time. Then when I finally came in to pick it up, he had forgotten to re-attach the button. He did so on the spot, and a few weeks later, the button popped off again and I lost it forever. Not a one star review because he did lengthen the sleeves and patch the jacket, but I needed it back sooner than I got it.

They didn't really explain anything as they made chalk marks on my dress. The guy did his thing within a minute and said I was all set. I was confused and tried to clarify that I wanted it a lot shorter but they started speaking to themselves and told me they got it. I was told to come back in a week to pick it up. As they had requested, I called in advance to see if the dress was ready to pick up. The lady picked up the phone and told me to wait as she "checked on the dress." The thing is, she just put down her phone to finish helping another customer This is normally completely fine, BUT she started going on a 15 minute conversation with the customer (and I could hear every word and laughter). I felt that it was really rude to have another customer waiting on the phone while you loudly have a personal conversation with another person. I wish that she had told me to wait and call back in 15 min or something like that. I was very frustrated and felt disrespected of my time. When I went to pick up the dress it was nowhere near the length where I had told them to shorten to. The dress had two flaps (one in front and one in the back). The guy had completely missed the back side so nothing was changed there. I even saw the same chalk mark still drawn on my dress. I brought back the dress and he fixed it the way I had originally wanted. For what I paid and a week of waiting, they didn't pay close attention and did the work in a rush right before I came to pick it up. Also they make you tip them when you first go in, before the work is done. I am not really keen on that because I definitely would not have tipped that amount if I knew this was going to happen.

I finally called around, and this was the only place open late and nearby--and I'm so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the experience was amazing. Raymond went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He even had me try on shoes to ensure the length was exactly right, which I really appreciated. I originally asked if they could be ready by Friday (my ceremony was Saturday), but when I called to see if Thursday was possible, he made it happen without hesitation. The pants turned out perfectly hemmed--exactly what I needed for such an important day. The attention to detail, professionalism, and quality of work here are top-notch. I'm incredibly grateful and will definitely be coming back in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for expert tailoring and great service!

I'll definitely be coming back for any future alterations!
