Totally ruined it, and didn't say anything about it when I picked it up. Went back to speak to them about it.

I asked them to reimburse me for the dress, showing them how they spread the spots all over the dress. They refused and responded that the dress is old -- it's not, it's new -- and claimed their liability was limited -- also not correct when you totally ruin a garment due to your own actions.

I was told it would cost more for the jeans but that they'd be able to repair them. When I got the jeans back, there was a giant white spot where the tear used to be.

The woman said there was nothing they could do. I politely asked if I could get a refund for just the jeans, since they're unwearable now. She said she couldn't, because the tear was repaired. If I'd known the repair would leave them unwearable, I never would have paid the extra cost for jeans. Save your money and your clothes and go somewhere else for sewing.

I did some research for other dry cleaners that offered cleaning & preservation but Mulberry's just ended up being the best option for me in terms of pricing & location. The drop off process went smoothly and I was told that the dress won't be ready for pick up until May so I kind of just forgot about it. Of course there were still some worries especially since this is such a sentimental piece of garment that I'm having cleaned & preserved. I received a notification this week that my dress was ready for pick up so was pleasantly surprised by how quickly they finished. For a flat rate of $500 for cleaning & preservation, I thought it was a pretty good deal. My dress was beautifully packaged & the garment bag I dropped it off in was also returned back to me. Overall very satisfied with the service I received here & would likely return for other dry cleaning needs.

Third time I went there their servers were down and I couldn't get a connection on the kiosk card reader. After buying a $45 credit onto a card that is only usable at this place now it doesn't even work to buy it. It worked but then to use it on the machines it doesn't work. That is very unsatisfactory.

I contacted the number and they still haven't contacted me. I find this a bit absurd. Unfortunately I have to actually give this a few stars and nothing more until they get there.

And get their Internet service working correctly with a strong set up so they can actually have the machines working and operating correctly.

I had the pleasure of working with Jay, who was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. From the moment I walked in, he took the time to understand exactly how I wanted everything to fit instead of rushing through the measurements. I brought in quite the assortment too: a Filson trucker jacket, a pair of raw denim jeans, and my Red Wing Iron Rangers. He was confident in his recommendations while still making sure the final result matched what I was looking for. You can tell Jay takes pride in his craft, and that level of experience gave me a lot of confidence leaving my favorite pieces in his hands. Customer service like his is hard to come by, and it made the entire experience enjoyable. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is the price. The total came out to around $340, which definitely caught me off guard. To his credit, Jay was kind enough to give me a discount on the jeans and only charged me $300 cash, which I really appreciated. Quality craftsmanship isn't cheap, and I understand you're paying for experience. If you're looking for someone who knows what they're doing and treats your clothing and footwear with care, Jay is someone I'd recommend. Just be prepared for premium pricing.

Wish I couldn't give a star. Let me break down the conversation as I tried on my dress... Me: "I just want this to be shorter, like to right here" The lady: "No, no. It's fine how it is" Me: "no...? I just want it a couple inches shorter..." (I'm short and things are huge and long on me) Lady: "no no, it will be too high" We had this back and forth for about 5 minutes. FINALLY, me (the customer paying them) got my way. BUT, being that I'm not only 5'1, I'm also 95 pounds. So like I said, things are big on me. You can only imagine the conversation of me trying to get them to make the dress tight. I like things to fit like a glove, they wanted it to fit me like a sack. As you can tell, this is very strange because you would THINK they would want to do more work to get more money?? Isn't the customer always right? I can understand if it was expensive material and they were warning me that if I make it smaller it will ruin it or whatever, warnings okay. Telling THE PERSON WHO IS PAYING YOU that you can't get it higher or tighter (I thought it was a tailoring place?) is just weird. When I went in a week later to pick it up and tried it on, guess what? Too big. And let it be known that I'm not some "hoochie mama" that walks around with her butt hanging out, I just want the things I wear to not overpower me because I'm so little! So I told her where I wanted it tighter (I was as polite as possible) and what do you think?! "No, no, it looks fine! You don't need it tighter!" Really?? Am I not paying you? Am I not the customer??? The lady, exasperated, throws up her hands as if I'm the one being difficult and calls another lady over. I tell her, like I told the other lady, "I want this to fit like a glove" I showed her by pulling the extra material out (there was so much extra!) and she said "ok" and repinned me. Everything looked fine, it was all tight. So I pick it up a week later again, try it on, and the back is baggy! Just the back! If you bought a dress that is supposed to be form fitting and JUST the back is baggy, would you be happy?? I payed over $80 for altercations and they still didn't get it right. I took it with me because I'm from Portland and I will have someone from there do it. Hopefully the next tailoring place I go to who wants to get paid will LISTEN to their customer and get it right and not try to argue with their customer!! Never coming back and telling my friends to steer clear unless they want to have a debate on how they want the clothes they are paying for!!!! read more

Tatiana was able to essentially remake my dress so that it fit my body and actually looked good! She moved the waistline to the correct spot for my natural waist (after two other tailors had told us this was impossible), and completely hid the attachment line. She reshaped the sweetheart neckline and figured out how to add the satin short sleeve I was wanting so that it looked like it was an original part of the dress! (the dress was originally strapless). She also applied all the lace detailing to the sleeve and through the bodice. This was an extremely complicated alteration and Tatiana truly saved the day - for a very reasonable price!
