I've been to Kim's Taylor in the past for sewing upholstery material for repurposing, projects, This time my wife went to take our son's pant since he's has a larger frame for being 8 yrs old. His pants were modified to fit to size. Amazing work, quick and fair pricing read more

Took my military uniform to her, she had a bunch of other uniforms hanging up, so it seemed like a good choice. (It's been really tough to find good uniform tailors in central pa) Kim changed up my jacket and pants in just 5 days. It fits great and wasn't too expensive. *cash only* read more

I had brought 2 pants to be altered. When I came to pick them up one of my pants had disappeared. The other pants were way too short. Kim had semi altered them as I had the pants on. I was very dissatisfied and very disappointed. I will not be coming back and I do Not Recommend Kim's Tailor. read more

I took a dress here for a wedding that I am going to be in and she turned it around very quickly and did a fantastic job for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend! read more

Popped in randomly on a Tuesday with 2 long dresses that needed hemmed (both were delicate materials, one chiffon and one silky with two layers) and side of chest area that had a gap taken in. Fitting was super fast, but thorough. Picked up same week on Friday and dresses were perfection. Used one of those powder pumps to get the length exactly as it should be...grazing the floor. Hems are beautifully done, everything looks like I bought it this way and happened to fit perfectly. Very pleased with results. After living in nyc for the last decade it starts to get into your head that the city does things better, like tailoring (there's just more options and opportunity to find excellent service), so after moving back to PA was nervous to find a tailor to do the work at the level I was accustomed to, but all expectations were met and exceeded. Highly recommend! read more

I had taken a T-Shirt and a pair of twill khaki jeans to get fixed, the T-shirt had ripped sleeves along the seams which she sewed up perfectly, looks good as new. The jeans had a hole in the bottom of the crotch right above where the legs meet together, about the size of a dime maybe smaller. The hole is technically fixed now but it looks very sloppy, the inside looks a mess and there's a lot of excess threads and stitching all over the place. These were my favorite pants, and are a little hard to find nowadays. I suppose messy stiching is better than a hole but I am fairly disappointed. $19 for both the shirt and pants. read more

I took 2 items in to be hemmed and paid when I dropped them off. One pair was never done and I've left 2 messages with no return call. I will stop back in with them but would not recommend the place. She is very disorganized. read more

Just picked up 2 pair of jeans, with a nice size flare at the bottom. I'm tall but these jeans were a long and needed almost 2" taken off. So these alterations can't be easy. I pinned about where I wanted them hemmed and she did an amazing job! They look like they would , had I purchased them this length. Very professionally hemmed. I'm very impressed and will definitely go back for any future alterations. read more

Poor service and bad alterations. Don't waste your money or time. They will ruin your clothes!

my husband needed a pair of pants hemmed within a 3 day turnaround. we found Kim's and were so happy we did! when we got to the shop, it was BUSY. but she was very kind and got us in and out within minutes. we dropped the pants off around 2 pm, and she had them ready by 10 am the next day! very affordable, and very sweet!! read more

She didn't want to touch my dress because it was "too much work" or "too hard". After I asked her to point me to someone who could help she decided it wasn't too much anymore. Maybe it was a misunderstanding but I wouldn't recommend based on my three visits. read more

I've brought many items to Kim's Tailor over the past few years and have always found the prices to be reasonable and the turnover time to be quick. However, I have had to take pieces back to her on several occasions because they were either not tailored as asked or overlooked/not done at all. There is a significant language barrier, which does sometimes make it difficult for the customer to convey their wishes and for Kim to communicate what she thinks. Recently, on 2 separate occasions, I brought items to her and was very off-put by the experiences. Once, I held up a pair of pants to be altered and she grabbed the waistband, looked at me, and said, "Buy new pants." A few weeks later, I asked for some dress pants to be taken in but dissatisfied with the result, took them back, and was trying to explain to her again what I wanted while standing in front of the mirror and she just kept grabbing fistfuls of the material and loudly saying, "NO!" I repeatedly asked her what she meant/what she thought would look better, but just kept getting "NO!" I left frustrated and had to go find someone else to tailor the pants. read more
