Like everything that is quality in Charlotte, Good Food, Et. Al. - You have to wait for things. It was worth the wait at Tina's. They are located in the "Posh" Dilworth Section of Town and they serve a "Well Healed" Clientele; Parking in the Shopping Center can get a bit tight - so just be careful and be calm. Prices are fair - you get what you pay for and all good things come to those who wait; - Tina's stands by their work. I will be returning in the not so distant future to have have some pants hemmed.

I took in my beautiful dress I am wearing as the maid of honor at my sister's wedding. I went to…read moreget the hem altered, the sides taken in, and the skirt brought up slightly. Noting complicated or out of the ordinary. It had a v-neck that I felt comfortable and beautiful in. It didn't show off a ton of boob. I told them I was really happy with the neckline and didn't want that changed at all. When they were pinning me, I showed them where I wanted the skirt to go up about an inch. The seamstress said "no. 2 inches". I asked for it to be 1 inch again, but she pinned me for 2. I gave her the benefit of the doubt because she does this professionally but boy should I have listened to myself. When I came in to get my dress, I tried it on and was so upset and stunned silently in a bad way by the fit. The waist was way to high that not only caused me to looks wide and disproportionate but because they shortened the bodice too much, the entire bodice was riding up and not laying flat, the wide straps had a gap between my shoulder and the fabric, and the armpit area was digging into my armpit. It was as if someone had picked me up my my straps and I was dangling off the floor. I asked if they could fix anything about the waist and the arms but was told no because the dress zips perfectly. She said the only way to make the dress lay flat is to bring my breast way up with a push up or tape, something I am very uncomfortable & self-conscious with. My mom was with me & has a lot of experience sewing, grew up around seamstresses. She was kindly advocating for me because I was stunned silent with the fit and the people's attitudes who worked there. Because they shortened the bodice too much, I can never take it down where it needs to lay because of how they sewed it. Technically speaking, they ruined it. I will never come here again and encourage others to go somewhere else.

Never in my life would I have thought that getting a dress alteration would be so difficult. I had…read moremy home coming dress altered back in October and I understand that she was given two weeks to alter it, but her level of professionalism is no where to be found. She was absolutely rude and disrespectful to me at all three fittings. She made comments on my weight and about how the dress was four sizes too small even though it zipped when I bought it. The alterations she did were the worst I have ever seen; and this is coming from someone who tailors all of their clothes. She managed to shrink the dress a size when she added a corset to the back; which was meant to add half an inch. The straps were barely attached, and the hem she did on the skirt was the most uneven thing I've ever laid eyes on. I paid her far far far too much, and honestly should've refused to pay after the hack job she gave me back. I wouldn't recommend her to my worst enemy.

It was ready by the promised date and they called to let me know when it was ready. They were also really nice when I came in.

I don't really get a lot of alterations done so not sure how comparable the price was but I'm very happy with the work and experience I had. Just keep in mind they only take cash (no cards).

I am fairly shocked at the service I received here. I called them first to see if they are able to…read moreaccommodate a dress alteration (simple shortening of a dress). The woman told me to come in and they would let me know the price, which is understandable as I know all dresses are different. I then proceeded to let her know my timeline and she said OK if it was a simple shortening, it shouldn't be a problem. She told me she left at 5, but they were open till 6:30 and considering the type of alteration I was looking for, it wouldn't be a problem for me to come in anyway. So I drive there, walk in and a gentleman is steaming clothes, didn't even look at me, and asked what I needed. I told him, and still not making eye contact with me, he told me sorry we are booked up until mid September. I proceeded to explain I talked to someone already as I needed the dress sooner than September, and he again, didn't acknowledge me, and just said ok then and proceeded to steam. I was shocked he didn't even give me the time to look at my dress or hear out that I had talked to someone on the phone already, or just simply kindly explain they couldn't do it. Was hoping to find a new alterations shop i could rely on, but it unfortunately will not be here. Just to add, as I am reading other reviews, I agree that the owner gave off the vibe that I was bothering him and he could have cared less that I was a potentially paying customer.
