    Awesome alterations done here - such a professional job! Val did way better than I ever expected!…read moreDaughter was so happy with the end result! Came all the way from out of town - 4 hours drive to get the alterations done here BUT IT WAS SO WORTH IT!! So glad we got the work done here! I trusted Val to work on my daughters fancy grad designer dress - the ones that cost a lot & you have to be sure you put the work into good hands. Val has so much experience working on fancy dresses that you know she's going to do it right the first time! She did awesome work! Val has such awesome attention to details - it's all the little things that count and make such a big difference in the end result! No cutting corners! She really cares about your dress & puts her heart & soul in it. Blown away by the workmanship & dedication to excellence. The dress looks so good on my daughter now because she made it fit perfectly on her with the alterations. Grad dress: by a designer label dress so you really need someone who knows what they're doing so you don't end up with mistakes on your dress! Well, Val sure has tons of experience working on all those fancy dresses and it turned out awesome! My daughter was so pleased! Alterations done: Shoulder straps had to get taken in/shortened by an inch. You can't even tell it the straps were altered because she did such a nice sewing job. The hem was shortened about 1.5" - perfect stitching/hem work- big poofy dress with the crinolin etc. and it was no problem for her! Bodice work-got the front of the dress looking so good - it fits her so well now because Val has so many sewing hacks & made the dress fit her body like a glove! Perfect fit! Inserted an extra layer of mesh in the current mesh panel in the very front of the dress & made it look modest - and you can't even tell she did it in the sense that the seams are so nice & clean; no puckering or anything like that. Such beautiful work on the very front of the dress! Trusted her to work on the delicate areas! She did a perfect job the 1st time around! Back clip by zipper area needed readjusting because when they made it, it wasn't aligned properly - but Val fixed it up no problems & now it doesn't pull the dress from the side/got rid of the tug in the dress! Val has so much experience working on fancy dresses that it felt good leaving the dress in her hands/care because you know she loves what she does. I would definitely come back here should I need any more alterations! Absolutely recommend Val's Alterations - skill can't be beat! And she accommodates your personal needs and makes it to how you want it! Thank you so much, Val! God bless you!

    Val is the most amazing person doing alterations around! She completely changed my wedding dress to…read moreexactly what I wanted. She saw me multiple times and accommodated me as I'm not from Kelowna. I am so happy with my dress and everyone at our wedding loved it!! I got so many compliments on it. Thank you Val!

    I brought in a pair of new with tags crop pants for a simple hem. These didn't come in petite so I…read moreneeded them to be shortened. The length, post alteration, is even and correct. The stitching on the other hand is not. Stitches are missing/broken/overlapped and sloppy throughout both hems. In addition, they used a hot iron on these poly/spandex work pants and now there are permanent shiny burns on my brand new pants. Now, I am going to take some responsibility here as I had even stated to a coworker that I had other alterations/repairs that needed to be done - with clothing that was older and that I should get one of those repaired/altered first in case I wasn't happy with the quality. Unfortunately I got impatient. I also took the bag without looking at my pants before leaving as I was rushing back to work. Thankfully it is on a hem and nobody is going to be looking at it - but considering they were brand new, it's still super disappointing. The customer service was meh. Flat, uninviting and disorganized. Odd for a brand new (to the mall) business. They were completely disorganized when I went to pick up my pants. The woman had to go through every bag before finding my pants - kept pulling out blue jeans and asking if these were mine even though I kept telling her that mine were dress pants. There were tags on every bag with clients names and phone numbers - she wasn't checking these. This business has some growing pains in some regards (organization/customer service) but ultimately the quality of the alteration was terrible. When pants were given to me there was no acknowledgment that there were any issues or discussion around solutions. That alone would have redeemed this situation. There isn't a person or business in existence that hasn't made an error - but if there isn't ownership or acknowledgment of a known obvious issue- then it is simply neglectful poor quality customer service. I'm giving a 2 because the pants length was straight(ish - poly can be difficult to work with - full acknowledgement of this, but this is a storefront which implies professional workmanship) and accurate and the alteration was completed in the timeline they provided. Received a text when they were completed - which is a bonus for busy folk. That said, I will find another seamstress next time or do it myself. (Images showing workmanship - all same pants, just depending on light and angle/how close up I was to the pants - burn marks hard to see due to lighting - bottom right on quad photo is an example of the damage from hot iron)

    Went in to get a pair of jeans hemmed and the results were horrible. Uneven stitching that is…read moreunraveling after a single wear. A waste of your money and time. Get your tailoring done elsewhere.
