I purchased a dress for a friend's wedding that needed a few different alterations, and the dress…read moreshop recommended Donna so I figured I'd go there since she's probably familiar with the dresses. This was my first time getting a gown hemmed so I went in without expectations. It was too long so I needed the bottom hemmed but wanted to keep some of the train, and it needed to be taken in on the sides as well as another loose fabric piece needed to be sewn down. I called in advance in case I needed an appointment and they answered right away and assured me I could come in at the time I requested. I arrived and there was one other customer she was finishing up with but I barely had to wait at all. Donna was extremely friendly and listened to all of my concerns about the fit of the dress and made suggestions for the hemming. She pinned it all up and I was out of there pretty quickly. She asked when I needed the dress by and assured it would be ready a few days in advance and gave me a ticket with the quoted price on it. I didn't receive a call when it was ready but I was never told I would, but just something that would be nice. I'm sure it would have been ready by the day I was told but I ended up picking it up a few days later. I wasn't able to make it by during the store's regular business hours but I called and thankfully Donna was still there after closing. The dress came out perfect and I was really happy with the service. I would recommend Donna's Tailor Shop to anyone else needing a formal gown hemmed.

Based on their schedule and items I think they can work with you based on what they're showing and they seem to have a constant stream of work. When I came back I noticed one of the items was upside down, to no fault as they're not familiar with the emblem, and the seamstress was able to fix it on the spot! They were very helpful and apologetic, which was no issue really, and was nice on every occasion. Their shop is clean, and my daughter noticed that they had Cinderella stickers and the nice all over the floor boards which gave it a nice touch, and they offered my daughter candy! A great place with nice people!

My dress needed the straps to be shorter and my slit was sewed since it was rather high. I also added sleeves to my dress and she did an amazing job! With the extra fabric, she offered to make two pocked squares as well. My sister and I had a very small window in which we needed alterations for her bridesmaid suit and my dress. They got them BOTH done so fast and the work was incredible. Aside from the work, they have great customer service which seems to be hard to come by these days. Highly recommend this place! Would definitely return. More info on cost: I paid $138 for the slit to be sewed, straps to be shorter, added sleeves, plus two pocket squares.

I can't recommend Andy highly enough. His work is excellent, his pricing is very fair, and he's…read morealways quick with turnaround. What really makes him stand out for me is how well he handles rare vintage clothing. I've brought him delicate 1930s to 1950s pieces, and he has been careful to accommodate all of my requests, including using my own period correct thread and fabrics. Finding someone who respects the details and history of vintage garments is incredibly rare, and I feel lucky to have found him. If you need a tailor who combines skill, honesty, and respect for your clothing, this is the place to go.

I had gained some weight around my waist. Andy used his material, to expand the waistlines. I have never seen anything done so well. Every alteration was to perfection. Some of the dresses were designer with beads and tight zippers. Andy made them perfect. I have never been so amazed in life. He took dresses that wouldn't even reach around me and made them a perfect fit. I will always go to this shop for my alterations. He is a miracle worker to perfection. I will add photos later when I wear the garments on a cruise. Nora Weber

10/10! Tracy is an absolute miracle worker…read more I very last minute decided that my bridesmaid dress for my best friend's wedding needed an adjustment ~two~ days (do not recommend) before the wedding. I had a strong feeling that this was most likely not possible as most tailors are normally booked for weeks in advance and of course need time to make said adjustments! Nevertheless, I stopped by Elegant Tailor and Cleaners in pure desperation, really hoping that somehow it would be possible and boy did I get lucky! Tracy was able to do a complete turn around and have my dress ready in 2 days. Unbelievable. On top of that, she made it 10x more flattering than I could have possibly imagined! This was a very cheap Amazon dress that did not do me any favors but by the time that Tracy was done with it, you would have no idea. I could not recommend Tracy more, she was so kind, professional, quick and such a pro. Reasonable pricing as well! I will definitely be back.

I went in for a few different things several times: hemming some pants, making alterations to my wedding dresses and cocktail dresses. They handled everything beautifully.

Everyone there is kind, professional, and clearly cares about their work. It's such a relief to find a tailor you can truly trust, especially for important pieces. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommending them to everyone.
