Half the items I brought had to be brought back for either an incomplete job, or the seams or buttons started coming off/ out. They also seem to insist on bringing the shoulders shorter, which is much easier than bringing in the waist. I brought in a very nice dress, and they totally ruined it by making the neck area so small. I couldn't get it on after their suggestion to have it tailored that way... and then wanted me to pay to have that fixed. Currently looking for another tailor that will stand behind their work and do a better job. read more

Very rude and very expensive! Don't waste your time or money here. Took a few items to be tailored. The quotes she gave me are double what they should be. When I said I have to think about it she said "tailoring costs money." Lol of course I'm not asking them to do it for free but the prices/ her attitude was ridiculous. read more

Gegi couture repaired my swim suit to perfection and altered my pants so I could wear them (Gave me room in the hip and butt area). The price is affordable and the work is expert level. I Willrecommend this shop to everyone. read more

See all

Gegi and her team are amazing! We have used them for years and are always impressed and happy with their work. She is precise and very easy to deal with, work is on time and done as promised. read more

They are fantastic. Fast, precise, and courteous. Best seamstress in the NOVA area.

Gegi did excellent work on my bridesmaid dress and was able to get it back to me in one week. It was a little pricey, but she did a stunning job and I was happy to pay a little more for the quick turn around. She was very helpful and listened to what I wanted. read more

I will add the 5th star once I retrieve my suits which are currently being altered. The 4 star now , is based on the cleanliness, professionalism and layout of GiGi's shop. GiGi herself is a class act ,very fashionable and professional. Her advice and insight on how a cut should be done and how is should fit is excellent - some tailors just say "yes" to a request w.out giving you alternative options or the up/downside of how a particular request may affect other aspects of the alteration. I will return to GiGi in the future! read more

Highly skilled alterations. I can't tell my items have been altered. I took in a denim skirt which needed the waist taken in (significantly). She Gegi explained I would loose the denim tab buttons on the side (not a big deal) because the alteration would need to take place on the sides and not the back. I really appreciated the information. The second item I had altered where brand new suit pants. She did a beautiful job! Very professional, polite, and warm. I'll be back for sure and plan on recommending her to anyone who's looking for someone to alter or craft clothes. read more

I got my bridesmaid dress altered here after the previous seamstress was unable to take in the top and bottom portions. The top was still too big and the bottom was still too small. She did a great job of finding a way to let out the bottom enough for me to sit and taking the top in some more so that it didn't look like a maternity top. I'm very happy with my dress now. read more

From the first appointment to the final pickup, they were fast, friendly, and precise. They did amazing work taking in a dress to the point you can't even tell it was altered. I will for sure be coming back! read more

Wonderful! Fast service at a very reasonable price! I was in and out and my costume looked flawless! Highly recommend and will definitely be back! read more

Sad to say Gegi ruined my wedding dress. I had to order one online the week before my wedding and have lost the $3,000 I paid for my stunning silk gown. It's very apparent she does not know how to work with silk at all and she ruined the seams on both sides leaving them lumpy and the dress unwearable. She also hemmed the dress too short (very elementary mistake) and sewed the comb on my veil backwards which I did not even know until my wedding day and it looks terrible in photos. I'd originally left her shop excited about my dress because she said it just needed to be steamed, although she did not have a steamer which is very strange. I steamed it myself and saw her work was terrible and the dress was ruined. She emailed me saying she was sorry and she was very sleepy from being jet lagged and hoped I understood. It's insane. I would 100% NOT recommend Gegi Couture for anything of value. read more

Gegi has altered 4 suits, expertly repaired a tear in the sleeve of my sport coat and tailored numerous pants and shirts for me. I have been extremely impressed with the quality of the work. The price is worth the quality of the work! read more

I have been really impressed with the work Gigi has done. I brought her 2 suits and 2 sport coats to adjust and update. She expertly adjusted the shoulders and waist to make the coats like new. She did a complete overhaul of a suit to make it modern (slimmer pants, shorter jacket length, tighter shoulders, etc) and now it looks like a bespoke suit from Saville Row. Her prices are not cheap but very fair considering the quality of the work and the money saved by refurbishing suits that had gone unused due to poor fit or old style. Take her anything that you don't wear because of the style or fit and she'll make it like new. She's also very gracious about requests for rework to get the waist or length just right. I wish I'd known about her years ago. Best tailor ever. read more

I was referred to Gegi Couture from my dry cleaners. I have been impressed with the service I have received from them as well, so I went to Gegi on their recommendation. It was a great recommendation. I was impressed with the service I received from Gegi and her staff from the minute I walked in. I thought they were very professional. Once I find a place that has good service and I'm happy with, I usually keep going back. In the future, when I need an alteration done I'll be coming back to Gegi Couture. Thank you Gegi... read more

I've lost about 20 lbs. She tailored an Armani and Dolce suit and slacks. Very impressed that she was able to keep all the original lines and bring my 10 yr old suit to current trends. Wow! read more

Gegi did an awesome job for my wedding dress alterations! Highly recommend !!! She is so nice and very patient, listen to my concerns and explain to me how she will do to fix my dress. Will come back in the future. read more

Gegi is professionally trained. She can sew and contruct anything for you! Men and women. She helped me with a formal dress. My design and idea but she made it into the dress. Both men and women at the event were asking me who was the designer and where I bought it. read more

Was great called last min to have 3 patches sown on an item and she fit me in last min and was ready an hr later. Happy customer and will be back soon!!! read more

Gegi adjusted my suits and made them custom fit. Very satisfied with her alterations.

Loved it! Excellent work and completed in the timeframe promised!

I have been going to Gegi for nearly 7 years. Now that she has her own shop, as always, she provides great service at great prices. During my last visit, she hemmed pants and put darts in a dress - she makes off the rack clothes fit as if they were custom pieces, and she is a pleasure to work with. She provides her opinion, but ultimately will do as the customer asks (but the times I have strayed from her guidance, I have regretted it!). I won't go to anyone else! read more

Gegi is a lovely and patient person. She offers great customer service and does quality work. Just the kind of dressmaker/tailor I've been looking for all these years. No more dry cleaner hems for me! read more

Incredibly overpriced and a 2 week turnaround for a job that I might as well try myself it's so small. Walked right out the door.
