I dropped my dress off here in hopes of getting alteration work done. After weeks, I called for an update since they never gave me a day to pick up. When I called, after waiting patiently, we set up a date A WEEK LATER to pick up my dress. when i got there for the "appointment" my dress was untouched since i dropped it off a month ago.........as a Bride, i am furious. do not recommend. they seem like they do not know what's going on. read more

great place for alterations ! the work was wonderful and workers were very kind. i took off a star because it was challenging getting in contact with them and they only take cash app or cash but if you need an alteration, i would trust these gals. read more

They do great work! They repaired a zipper in my dress the same day as I was needing it for a trip.

They were very, very rude to me when I called and tried to schedule an appointment. They have a long turnaround time, and the person on the phone hung up on me when she was done answering my question. read more

Did a great job at short notice on a complex project. Was easy to work with and communicated well. read more

I went to Ms. Gwyn first for a wedding dress alteration. I needed more than just a simple hem-other work had to be done on the bodice and a bustle hook & eye had to be added (her suggestion) for the train. Ms. Gwyn is a delight to work with and the alteration work was perfect. The work was done on time and reasonably priced. Thank you Gwyn!!!! read more

Do NOT go here! I brought my very expensive, irreplaceable mother of the bride dress here based on all the very favorable ratings on YELP. I had 3 minor alterations that needed to be done. The silk sheath had a small hole on the chest that I wanted repaired. I told Gwen EMPHATICALLY that I did NOT want the hole stitched as it would make it much more noticeable. I asked her to fuse a piece of the silk fabric (which I supplied) to the back of the hole. I stressed to Gwen that this was a very important dress to me. Gwen assured me she could do this and she would take good care of my dress. At no time did I see Gwen take any notes about how I wanted the hole fixed and because of this I actually called Gwen a few weeks later to emphasize it again. Yesterday I came to pick up my dress to find that the hole had been stitched together, exactly what I asked her NOT to do! I reminded her that this was not what we had discussed, she said she could take out the stitching and repair it the way I had asked but it would "probably look worse". At this point I lost total confidence that Gwen could fix this and was worried that it in fact it would look worse. Gwen did not apologize, she said no one would see the repair, and she did not offer me a discount even though she knew I was very upset. Her only reply was that she forgot. The other two alterations were done properly but they do not in anyway make up for my disappointment. read more

Ms. Gwen and the team at Miracle Works are absolutely incredible!! I was so nervous about getting the complicated, geometric lace pattern of my wedding dress altered, but Ms. Gwen swept away all my worries and made me feel so confident in the dress! The prices are completely reasonable and I encourage all bham brides to come to Miracle read more

They altered an Amsale bridesmaid dress in about 10 days. Perfect hem and they made major changes to the body of the dress.

I got my suit for my wedding altered here. The owners were very kind and professional, and they had my suit done in a timely fashion. They did what I was looking for! read more

The best tailor in the Birmingham area! I have used them for all my tailoring needs from suits, to jeans, to casual pants, and shorts. They are so friendly and do excellent work. Highly Recommended! read more

The gals that do the work here are marvelous. I don't have huge jobs like bridal or fancy dress needs. However I am very small and petite. I need just about everything shortened, sleeves shortened, dresses, skirts, pants. Even petites are too long. Some items need to be raised at the shoulders -- necklines too low! I will be using these lovely ladies every time I need something done. I feel fortunate to have found good tailors since moving to Birmingham from Southern California. read more

I highly recommend this tailor. I have a very unique and one-of-a-kind wedding dress that I needed altered. Being new in town, I didn't have a tailor that I had a history with and I was pretty nervous about letting just anyone alter my dress! I chose this shop based on the yelp reviews and, upon meeting the owner, Gwen, my nerves were immediately calmed. Because my dress ended up being very difficult to work with, the alteration ended up taking several weeks and I made a handful of visits to try my dress on during the process. This may be seen as an inconvenience to some, but I feel that this shows how careful and thoughtful Gwen was about what she was doing. I would rather make several visits over a period of time than have someone going rogue with the scissors on a sentimental piece of clothing. During each visit, she would go over options with me and we would make a decision together about what was best. The end result is stunning and looks exactly how I wanted it to look. In addition to this, I enjoyed visiting with Gwen when I would stop in and we ended our last session with a hug. :) If you are looking for a thoughtful and talented tailor, I definitely recommend this shop! read more

A family run alterations place that treats you like family! Everyone was so nice. It was my first time going in and Gwen said she likes to make a point to get to know her customers. I am beyond satisfied with the alterations they did for a bridesmaid dress and 2 work dresses. The prices were extremely reasonable too. I will definitely be a repeat customer! read more

I've used Miracle Works for alterations on three bridesmaid's dresses, now, and they are wonderful! Excellent quality work and a reasonable price. As with any clothing alterations, be sure to allow sufficient time (though they will work with you if you're on a fast deadline). I plan to use them for my wedding dress alterations as well--they have earned my trust! read more

Great place for alterations and they seem to be reasonably priced but I have never really compared prices. I have had jackets (linings, buttons), pants (let out, taken in, hemmed, etc) repaired and altered here and I always come back. Really appreciate the attention to detail. read more

I got my wedding dress altered here, after finding Ms. Gwen on yelp. I'm SO glad I found her because she did an out of this world job!! This dress was extremely intricate and had a ton of bead work and she nailed it. I highly recommend her for all of your alteration needs. read more

$85 for a bridesmaid dress to be hemmed. I thought it was a little pricey, but needed it done in two weeks. They had it done in one! They do ask for half the price down ahead of time, and then pay the rest when you pick up. read more

After using their services for over six months, I can say that they are top notch. They listen to the consumer and make the clothes fit like you want them. They do great work on mens' suits, such as tapering pants legs and bringing in the sides of a blazer or jacket. Their prices are reasonable and the job is completed when they say it will be done. The quality is top notch and they remember you and treat you like family. This place is a hidden gem, as getting quality menswear alterations in the city of Birmingham can only be had at two or three places in the city. I welcome the addition of another top quality tailor that is conveniently located for the denizens of eastern Birmingham read more

So I'm updating after the wedding weekend my BF needed the suits for and the fit on both jackets was excellent!! He also got his pants hemmed. We promised the owner we would show her pics of us at the event when we got back, that's just how friendly the owner is! It's hard to find great customer service these days so when you do find it, it's definitely refreshing! Will be using this place exclusively going forward! Oh and she was on time, pick up is normally scheduled for after 2 pm on the day needed. read more

Recently brought a suit in to be altered a bit. Had the pants hymned, the waist taken in, and my jacket sleeves shortened for right at $60.00. Gwen was really nice and super helpful. Got my suit back in perfect condition and the alterations were perfect. Her store was a bit hard to find as it is tucked in the back of the shopping center it's located in, but the store is worth looking for. I'll be taking any items that need altering here in the future. Price and service are great. read more

Great and fast service $3 more and I got next day pick up! I won't be going anywhere else, I've finally found a spot I can depend on

Left a pillow case to be fixed on May 16th and wad promised it would be ready in 2 weeks.Came to pick it up July 1st and it was NOT ready and Mrs Guin said please give me another chance, so I did. Came to pick my pillow case today (July 15th) and it still was NOT ready. She has 2 months to fix my pillow case. I was not a priority. read more

I was visiting Birmingham for a wedding and my boyfriend needed a suit altered for the very next day (less than 24 hours). I was in a panic, but thankfully came across Miracle Works. They worked with us and were extremely friendly. They welcomed us to Birmingham and made the trip a success. He got the pants hemmed and arms shortened. The suit looked perfect! Highly recommend! read more

After my first experience with this taylor, I will not go to any other. Ms. Gwen did an excellent job and she was willing to work with me in a relatively short time frame. On top of that, she was so warm and friendly, I felt very at ease and comfortable there. She listened to what I wanted and she achieved it perfectly. I cannot thank her enough. Highly recommend! :) read more

Friendly service. Experienced workers. I had my dress ready well on time for my event. Gwen was super nice, and she took great care to make sure my dress was exactly how I wanted it while pinning it. Alterations were made at an extremely reasonable price as well. read more

I've been to several tailors over the years, and Miracle Works is by far my favorite. I've had half a dozen things tailored with them, and each item has come back looking like it had been made to fit me at the factory. What makes them really stand out, however, is their customer service. Just to give an anecdote, I brought them a leather jacket that needed a new zipper. Miracle Works spent weeks finding me the exact right zipper, and even ordered me a second one when the first one didn't quite match the jacket. And when I got the jacket back, an ugly stain on the jacket had magically disappeared without any charge or mention from them. Truly excellent customer service. read more

I went to this place because of the reviews. I was a little nervous I had a silk dress that needed to be taken in and I was not sure how it would come back. They did a fabulous job! The alteration was spot on. My dress fits like a glove! The alteration was so well done! I also had a zipper fixed and pants hemmed. All of it turned out great. Your clothes will be returned in fabulous condition. If you need anything fixed or altered bring it here! You will not be disappointed! Also it's a family business and everyone is welcoming and friendly read more

I'm so happy with the alterations I have had done at Miracle Works! Gwen and her son Cornelius are friendly and do incredible work. I had two pairs of pants tailored, and they fit like a glove. Cornelius also fixed a small hole in another pair for me while I waited! I highly recommend Miracle Works, and I'll definitely be back. read more
