I finally found the place!!!…read more Kind, professional, and helpful but also very talented and willing to make recommendations on how to improve the look of a dress/item. I took in eight items including dresses, pants, and also a leather jacket. Very reasonable pricing considering what needed to be done on them. I definitely will be back! Tip: the storefront is in the back of the shopping area and has a dedicated parking spot for customers. Cash is preferred but you can pay with electronic payments if you're willing to cover the fee.

We called to see if there was availability for us to come in same day for a fitting and they got us in 30 minutes later. The staff is so sweet and accommodating for my daughter to feel comfortable to change. She tried on the dress, addressed our concerns, and the owner understood everything we were needing. We came back a week later to a dress that fit her like it was made for her! They even fixed the zipper attachment at no cost. What a wonderful small business - we will continue to use them and recommend. See photos of before and after!

I had the MOST BEAUTIFUL dress on my wedding day thanks to Laura. She is phenomenal and is truly an…read moreexpert with wedding dresses. My dress came strapless and was many sizes too big. She got the corset top to fit me like a glove - as if it were made for me. I wanted to add removable off the shoulder straps that would fasten with small buttons. She ended up sewing one on and had me come in because she didn't like how it was making the dress look, it was causing a bulge. So she recommended to just sew the sleeves on seamlessly and then if I want to take them off the reception, just cut them (because it's not like I'm going to wear the dress again lol!). I'm so glad I went with her recommendation. I ended up loving the sleeves so much I didn't even feel the need to cut them off for the dancing. My dress was tailored perfectly to my height with heels. My dress was pretty detailed. Had many layers to the skirt including a horsehair layer. The corset had layered lace as well. After picking it up from Laura, it looked better than it did when I bought it! Additionally, there were some buttons in the back of the corset that were loose and she re-enforced those. Even the bustle was perfect. She does really hardy sturdy work but still maintained the delicate nature of the dress. In paying for the alterations we paid for half at our first appointment and the second half at the second appointment. Laura broke down all that we were paying which was really nice. I am so impressed with her work and will continue to return to her for all of my alterations.

I had never ordered a more fitted dress (2,4,6, etc instead of small, medium, large) from the company so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. Sure enough, it didn't fit. I'm on the shorter side so I had the dress hemmed and the shoulder straps shortened.
