She is a perfectionist and did multiple fittings to make sure everything was just right. This dress had multiple layers with a ton of fabric so I'm sure it was not an easy task.

So I had heard that this Tailor was good, but that the woman owner was a little crazy. You might…read moreget her on a good day and she was nice, or you would get her on a bad day and she would just say no I can't do it. I took a dress in and sure enough it must've been a bad day because she basically did not even look at it. It had a bumpy seam in the bottom where from a previous alteration it got sewn up incorrectly. I asked if she could make the seam smoother. She didn't even look. She said return it to the store where you bought it. I said no this is from a previous alteration, I just think that part needs to be resewn. She said take it back to them. I said I don't really want to because they did this in the first place. She said take it to Nordstrom. I said they are better tailors than you? She said, I can't fix, and then started to walk away. Meanwhile, she still had never really even looked at it. Totally insane. How can you have a tailoring business that just says no. It is exactly what happened to my friend when she took some pants to be tailored. Just a super weird no to a normal tailoring job. Meanwhile, not a soul in the store and tons of suits and jackets and shirts. I would assume she would at least be nice to people as a way to draw in business. I was going to ask her if they had a man's tuxedo shirt (I need one for the same event as this dress is for), I wanted to get him a really nice quality one. But after that treatment. I just turned around and left and went to Nordstroms. What a shock they were super pleasant and helpful and I found just what I needed. And I spent $260. Unless their shirts are over $300, she would've had a customer, and a potential customer for the future, as he is very difficult to fit.

I got to try on the pieces before paying, and the grand total for all this work was $78! Come here if you want affordable but HIGH QUALITY work on any of your favorite pieces - you won't be disappointed! Also customer service was A+++ - super friendly husband and wife (the tailor) who run this store that has been in Montgomery Mall for decades! Would recommend to anyone in the MoCo or DMV area.

I came in to get my dress tailored since I would be attending a wedding in about a month. I asked…read morethe seamstress to fix the sides of the bust as well as hem my dress. It came out to be $240 total, since she also noticed something was wrong with the darts on the dress. It took about three weeks total for her to make the adjustments to perfectly fit my size, and it turned out so well! The manufacturers messed up on the dress and put the darts in the worst place possible, and the seamstress noted that several times. She put in a lot of hard work in order to tailor the dress to what I wanted. She really made an effort to talk to me and help me understand how dressmaking and sewing works, and to ensure that I feel good in what I would wear.

The person running the shop is super friendly and seems to remember his customers. Their prices are very reasonable and ready within a matter of hours to day depending on how much needs to be tailored. This is a great local shop to get your tailoring done. I do not hesitate having friends going to this place. Well worth giving this place a try. If you do come, there are 2 private fitting rooms where you can try on your clothes for the tailor to measure the alterations.

Unfortunately, I brought my wedding dress here to be tailored, and based on my experience cannot in good conscience write a positive review. I paid almost $300 for alterations. The alterations I paid for: hem so the length fits me and add a bustle. The alterations I received: ___. To be fair, she did add a bustle, it just didn't actually hook and/or work. I had people constantly attempting to re-bustle me until we finally gave up and safety pinned the dress. As for the hemming...maybe she forgot? Regardless, the dress was so long I couldn't walk without stepping on the front (a terrible situation for a strapless dress - please use your imagination and pray the photographer deleted the evidence). For what it's worth, I love dogs. However, if I knew she had a dog in the shop with her frolicking around while she's (allegedly) altering clothes, I never would have come here. I have a child with severe allergies (lots of allergies - not just dogs, but also hypoallergenic dogs due to dander and other sensitivities), and wholeheartedly regret exposing him by using this tailor. My wedding was 99% perfect. The only thing I would change would be the tailor so my dress would actually have a chance at fitting. I would give it one star, but I don't want to destroy a local business. That said, I would only recommend this establishment to my arch nemesis. Karen: if you're reading this review, I hope you bring all of your clothes here.

I said fine since I had faith it would be done right. She only fixed half the problems and when I asked her if she said could fix it she said no and wouldn't give me a partial refund. If she had said at the beginning she couldn't do it I would have just bought a new jacket!

Came here to get another alteration and was highly disappointed. The owner honestly charged me so…read moremuch money for two simple fixes. I have never came to pay this much amount for shorts and a jumpsuit to be fixed. I only asked for a jumpsuit to be hemmed to be short only a few inches, and shorts that had a minor hole that needed to be altered.

Very disappointing. As of now I will not come here again. Honestly look elsewhere for honest and reasonable service.

Once I got home, I realized one dress was missing. I called her, but she insisted she had given all my clothes back. I explained there was definitely a missing dress, but she was very adamant that everything had been returned. The next day, I went back to the store and showed her pictures of the missing dress. Lo and behold, she found it under a different name and admitted she had mixed up the items. On top of that, she was a bit rude both when I first dropped off my clothes and during the phone call about the missing dress. To be fair, her altering work is really nice, and I loved the quality of the alterations. But her service and the fact that she lost my dress at first were very disappointing.
