    Sheila does amazing work! She's been handling my embroidery needs for about 20 years and I wouldn't trust anyone else.

    Barbara is the most talented dressmaker and tailor I have encountered in this life. She has…read morecustomized gowns for me and I truly do not want to go anywhere else.

    When I pay for a service, especially something as personal as a dress fitting, I expect to be asked…read moreabout my preferences. Barbara started off our consultation by telling me what she was going to do to my dress based on her opinion of how it looked on me. People do not go to tailors or "master dressmakers" (as she calls herself) to get their opinions, they go to have their dresses tailored to their bodies. That being said, nobody other than myself should voice an opinion about how my body looks in a garment. She actually hemmed my dress very well which I appreciate. I also needed her to place more fabric in the bust of the dress to accommodate my body. I was very specific with what I was looking for and she told me that she could do what I was asking and she would have plenty of time to finish it by the date I needed it. To my surprise when I went to pick up the dress it was obviously rushed and it appears she did not even attempt to pay attention to detail (see photos). She didn't even fully attach the extra piece of fabric! This left the dress lumpy and forced me to have to pin it in place, despite the fact that I paid for "master dressmaker" level work. I did not even have time to have her fix the mistakes because she finished the dress the day before I needed to wear it.I am very disappointed with the lack of proper customer service, as well as the empty promises made by the tailor herself. Of course people (especially craftsmen) should know their worth and price their services appropriately, however the price I had to pay for her work did not match the quality of the work performed. I do not recommend taking your garments to be altered here.
