    Update: I brought in 3 items to be altered with mix results, so readers will have to decide for themselves; but, I did add a conclusion at the bottom to assist with potential customers' research. 1. Wedding Gown - The ruffled neck flared out too much and had to be controlled a little bit. This was altered very nicely. - The back was too wide on me and had to be taken in. This too was altered very nicely. - The bottom was too long on me and had to be shortened. It has three tiers and our agreement was to shorten "each" tier and follow the gown's original proportion for each. However, disappointingly, they instead shortened only the "middle" tier. I have two of the same gowns so I'm able to compare the Original vs Altered version; photo attached. - They were late by a few days delivering on the 1st alteration. The reason given to me was they had an emergency helping another bride. While I think it's nice of them to save another bride's day, I feel they should have called to ask me whether I'm ok with the delay before accepting a job that will push my delivery. There's a reason why I brought my gown in early and the reason was to avoid stress; so while they helped another bride they did put me on stress mode. - We were also going to create a cape but I had to scrap the plan as they provided the fabric sample much later than agreed; and when the sample arrived, it did not match the color of my gown. (At the end, I found a private tailor to make my cape.) - Their price is very reasonable. They have a standard rate card for each element of alteration so you know you're not being over-quoted. - Their studio is large and comfortable for brides to do tireless fittings. But note it is on the 3rd floor; stairs only. - Overall, I was happy enough with the work and relieved to retrieve my gown in pristine condition. 2. Stripe Maxi Dress: - Following the fairly successful job of my wedding gown, I brought in two maxi dresses for alterations. - This dress has a low v-neck wrap style. Its original silver snap button by the v was falling off and was to be replaced with a clear plastic button. However, when I came to pick up the dress, I noticed it was replaced with yet another silver button so they had to make the correction while I waited. - The dress's length was too long and had to be shortened. This was done nicely but I'm pretty sure they accidentally created a run in the fabric during this process (it is a delicate material). Of course, they said they did not create the run. So, my recommendation is to thoroughly check your garment with them and ask them to write down on the receipt any existing issues that the garment might have (kind of like when you rent a car). This way, you'll avoid any He said She said when you pick up your garment after alterations. - Between those two issues, I was not happy with the experience. 3. Yellow Maxi Dress: - The back was too wide so the back zipper was bunching up on me. Their solution was to take in / tighten the back. When I picked up the dress and tried it on, the zipper's bunching problem persisted, so they decided to take up the shoulder straps to further reduce the problem but I'll have to come back again. - Today, I did the final pick up and was relieved that it fit fairly well. - However, now both shoulder straps have some alignment issues due to the way they cut the straps. This was not a cheap dress and now it has a cheapened look. - They did not remove the hook & eye at the top of my dress even though it no longer serves any purpose since it now sits at the same level as the top of the zipper. For the price they charged, I should not have to snip it off myself. - There appears to be a small blood stain on the underside of the dress which I'm currently trying to soak out with Spray & Wash (perhaps the seamstress poked herself with a needle?) - Considering the cost + number of visits + I'm trying to wash the little blood stain out... I was not happy with this experience either. In conclusion, YES I would recommend Magic Fitters for wedding gown alteration because it is very difficult to find good tailors at reasonable prices and they did a nice job (but write down your agreements and take photos) but NO I'll skip the hassle for regular outfits.

    Perfection, thanks to Magic Fitters

    I'm so happy to have found Magic Fitters! Oksana and her team are the best, so kind and knowledgeable. I came in with a designer wedding gown that needed several alterations and everything was done perfectly. They even made my wedding veil, which was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding alterations experience. I've brought in several different dresses since and they never disappoint. I will definitely be a lifelong customer.

    Oksana and her team were wonderful to work with and made my wedding day outfit perfect! I was inspired by a designers work to wear pants with a long top instead of a dress, and she made every adjustment and edit that I needed, and gave great suggestions and encouragement when I had doubts about my outfit. She was a joy to work with, and was available to answer all my questions and work with my schedule for fittings. I got so many compliments on my wedding day thanks to the amazing tailoring and artistry at Magic Fitters. Thank you Oksana & Team!

    Excellent fitting!

    I am so lucky to have found this place, the women are as lovely as they are talented. I have trusted them with all sorts of alterations. From a very complicated beaded bridesmaid dress (see photo) to skinny jeans, they know exactly what to do! I won't go anywhere else for alterations. Did I mention the space is large, sunny, gorgeous and on top of the M/F trains!

    Review 1: I cannot say enough good things about MagicFitters. Oksana is warm, genuine, incredibly patient, and understanding. The craftsmanship in her Studio is top notch. The team of seamstresses knows what they are doing, and it shows in their work. I first met Oksana when I stumbled into MagicFitters shortly after they opened on W. 16th - conveniently right across the street from our apartment. The second I met her I knew I was in good hands. I felt like being invited into an old friends' home. She was so kind and genuine (although I had wandered in without an appointment) and she made me feel instantly comfortable. For my wedding rehearsal dinner, MagicFitters altered a Catherine Dean white midi skirt from BHLDN to better fit my petite frame, and they took in a lace bodysuit from Josie Natori. The bodysuit was a tricky item to alter -- it's delicate and unlined, but she made that thing fit like a glove. After only a few short days, I left incredibly happy; happy with the alterations, the reasonable prices, and thrilled that my tailors were now right across the street from me! I'll never get anything altered or fitted from anyone else, ever again. Based on the alterations MagicFitters had done for my rehearsal dinner outfit, it was apparent they have the expertise and skills to complete any job - big or small. It was also clear that Oksana operates her Studio with integrity - she's a straight shooter and isn't looking to rip off her customers. The whole team at MagicFitters wants you to be happy with both the results and the experience. UPDATED REVIEW (# 2): At the end of September, I went back to MagicFitter's Studio. This time, I was days away from my wedding with a pretty horrible bridal nightmare on my hands. After nine months of fittings at a highly regarded bridal salon in Soho where I purchased my dress in February, the result I took home was ill-fitting at best, incomplete at worst. I left the bridal salon knowing my efforts to fix this thing there were 99.9% moot, but I got in a cab anyway and took the dress straight to MagicFitters. Most places would have either 1) baulked and turned me away (it was a lot of work in a pretty unreasonable time frame), or 2) agreed to some element of alteration for the same boatload of cash I just paid to the Soho bridal salon. But like I said earlier, Oksana, the owner of MagicFitters, is a woman with integrity. She saw a person in need of help and extended her hand. Oksana and Yuliya went through every detail and flaw in the gown. It needed a TON of work, but Yuliya remained resolute in her commitment to not only fix the dress but improve it. She added beautiful hand beading and intricate design details that blew me away. Within the week, Yuliya had overhauled the entire thing and fit it to my frame perfectly. Oksana kept me posted in real time via texts on Yuliya's miracle work, sending me photos of the progress and putting my mind at ease. They even made special trips to the Garment District to get the right type of lace this particular dress needed (these women are angels amongst us). When I say they went above and beyond, I am not exaggerating. It was all-hands-on-deck at MagicFitters to get this dress in shape by my wedding date, and it is not an exaggeration when I say that Oksana and her team moved heaven and earth for me. They recreated what the dress was supposed to be from the ground up, and the result was truly magic. Thank you, Oksana and team, for keeping me sane and for making me the dress of my dreams. I can't recommend Oksana and MagicFitters enough. You will not find a more dependable, honest and quality service. That's what MagicFitters is all about.

    Highly recommend Magic Fitters. Was referred by a work connection and do not regret it. Oksanna and her team were highly knowledgeable. They listened to what I wanted and made it happen. They also created my beautiful cathedral length veil to go with my wedding gown and worked on my daughters flower girl dress. They were super timely and packed my dress beautifully in a suitcase for me take to our wedding destination so that it would not be wrinkled upon arrival. Magic fitters' pricing is very reasonable. Great overall experience and highly recommend!

    Magic Fitters is the BEST!

We went in, said hello, mentioned we were looking for Indian wedding clothes. When my husband found something he wanted to try, Ruchi responded and said "you cannot try that on. You said you are just looking, not buying right?" My husband responded by saying "How could I know if I'm buying something if I don't try it on?" She reiterated that since he had stated he was "just looking" that he would not be allowed to try any clothes on. At that point we realized we would not want to shop/buy anything there so we left the store.
