    I needed a bag to be fixed, the handle had come off & my Fanny packs zipper had broken. Greeted with a warm welcome, she looked at my two pieces and with honestly recommended what I should do. She recommended I simply purchase a new Fanny pack because it'll cost more to fix and then proceeded to fix my bag, took no longer that 10 minutes. She also didn't charge me for the simple fix and has said I could tip her if id like.

    I came to this place on a Thursday to drop off my sons homecoming suit pants to be hemmed. I was told to come back the following day BUT instead came back Saturday. Once I was there the lady COULDNT find my sons pants!!! And then asked me to come to the back to look for them myself!!!! I also couldn't find them! She called who I assumed was the owner and told her she couldn't find the pants. After abt 5 mins of looking around she found the pants in the exact same bag I dropped them off in!!!! At that point I asked for a refund and was told to come back Monday! I told her I didn't want to come back Monday and wanted a refund right away! After she refused I told her I was calling the police and she said do u want me to cry abt it?!!!. I walked outside to call the police and noticed I left my keys inside as I was LOOKING FOR MY OWN ITEMS. I walked back inside to get my keys to find the lady closing the shop! I mean Turing off the lights and gathering her things!!! I stood at the door and asked are you closing?! The police are coming and can you believe this woman PUSHED ME!!!! Multiple times!!!! And then walked outside of the business screaming call the police please someone help me!!! And I was shocked because SHE PUSHED ME!!!!! By the time the police came the owner pulled up and the police were able to get her to issue a refund! I would NEVER do business with this place again or recommend anyone else to!

Everything about it was perfect. I can't say how very much I loved working with her to create such a beautiful dress for my wedding day. Trusting her with my mom's dress was the best decision I made!

This past weekend I was trying on the dress I got for my best friend's welcome party for her destination wedding. The zipper got stuck, then it broke, and my panic for having a new dress for this occasion in under a week set in. I used Yelp assistant to put in a request to local alterations spots and let them know I had a broken zipper off the track of a formal dress and I needed it fixed before Tuesday. This request was sent on a Saturday afternoon, so to be honest I was not very hopeful of any replies but Carolina replied right away. Her studio is right by my apartment so she told me to take my dress in right then to see if it could be fixed. She fixed the zipper on the spot, and when we actually tried on the dress we realized that I did not fit. Welcome to my nightmare. She had the brilliant idea to alter the dress and add fabric on the sides to give me the inches I needed. The result is essentially a custom dress that I am obsessed with, and at a great price. I am definitely going to keep Carolina on speed dial for any of my alterations needs as she is super sweet, detail oriented, and very well priced. Her studio is located in a blue building on Mediera and there is street parking right in front. Thank goodness for both request a quote and Carolina for saving my dress fiasco.

    Would give zero stars if possible. I initially contacted the business in February for a quote on…read moredyeing two garments and to find out if fixing the color on them was possible. Marisela was quick to respond, and after a few more emails during which the dye process was explained, I told Marisela I wanted to proceed and asked her to confirm the mailing address. No response for several weeks, but I finally heard back after pinging her again and I shipped the items and provided her with the tracking number. Months later, no update. I wrote to find out what the status was, and she apologized for the delay and asked if I still wanted to proceed. I replied "Yes!" Back to silence. Since then I've sent a few more emails, including one where I stated it was clear that for whatever reason she was unable to do the requested work, and I asked for the items to be returned to me. Still no response. It is now mid-August and nothing. Super unprofessional. Would not recommend at all.

    I got married this October and wanted a pastel blue wedding dress. When I was shopping, every blue…read moredress was giving prom and not wedding. So I bought a beautiful white wedding dress online and found Marisela at ALTERIA online and inquired about her services. We discussed the color, she answered my questions, and we got the ball rolling. My dress came back even more beautiful than I could have imagined!! Between buying the dress, having it dyed, and having it tailored - I still only spent less than $600 overall which seemed like a great price compared to dresses I was seeing in stores. I attached photos of the untailored white dress versus the final tailored beautiful blue version. Marisela was incredible to work with and I am so glad I found her company!! She made my Cinderella dreams come true on my big day and I will treasure the photos and memories forever. :) Thank you so much ALTERIA!!!!
