Aynur's Alterations came as a recommendation from where I purchased my dress. They specifically…read morenoted how great their group does with bust work and I could not agree more! I came to the shop on 3 different occasions to handle all alterations, bustle, and final pick up. They accept multiple forms of payment and only service one bride at a time for an intimate experience. Their alterations services came at a premium but their craftsmanship, hospitality, and final steaming services were unmatched. My dress fit me exactly how I had hoped for. The length was perfect, I felt very secure and covered, and my waist was well defined. Aynur was great about thoroughly explaining the three recommended bustle types she recommended. I chose the Bubble Bustle which meant my train was tied up under the dress. She thoroughly explained that my train would attract dirt lines but I loved the way it looked throughout the night! I would definitely recommend Aynur to anyone needing special occasion alterations near Arlington Heights!

This is the BEST cleaner & tailor I've ever been to. I rave about this place to EVERYONE I know…read more They tailored my prom dress back in 2019 and she did such a wonderful job that I'll never trust another person to tailor anything for me unless it's her. The price is low for the wonderful work they do. I brought in a jacket and the sleeves were totally floods on me. I looked ridiculous. They immediately told me they could help, she added on about 5inches and it was flawless. Nobody could tell I had it altered. I will continue to be a loyal customer here and I highly recommend using them for any and all of your tailoring and cleaning needs!

Located in a strip in Arlington Heights, though they have a big sign you can miss it if you're not looking for it. From tailoring wedding dresses, tux, pants and more. They offer recommendations on how to make it fit you perfectly and be confident in what you wear. Highly recommend calling first, they may not always answer right away but they do always call back. When you have an appointment, make sure you come a little early to account for time to get your garment on. Then bing, bang, boom they have you all measured and you're on your merry way. All in all, I highly recommend Sylvia's and will be coming back for future tailoring needs!

The prices are fair and the service is great. When I asked for a dress hem quote for a friend, I thought their price was very very competitive. Compared to another cleaners I have been to in the area, they do take a bit longer, but I never needed to rush to get cleaning done. Bonus: they also take dry cleaning hangers for recycling! Not a lot of places do this anymore.

Pricing seems…read morerandom, they immediately recommend "Dry cleaning" and if the tag says xl+, they say "Big-size" and add $$. The racks used to be full, with customers clothes waiting for pick-up, this maybe due to people WFH like me. But, I think its due to the service. I used to loved this place, now looking for a new one.

Dora fit both dresses to me perfectly. I felt so secure and beautiful all day long. For my reception dress, I had a specific vision of changing the whole neckline to a straight across and shorting so I can dance. She walked me through every step and made sure I got exactly what I was looking for. I received so many compliments on her work! Her pricing is very reasonable and her turnaround time is great. Not only did I have her alter these two wedding dresses, she altered 2 more dresses for me for upcoming weddings and she did a great job. I highly recommend Dora and Magic Alterations.

Nina tailored my wedding dress which was detailed with 3D appliqués and also made me a custom veil…read morewith the appliqués sewed on. I do think she is a skilled tailor but simply does not have the time, energy, or attentiveness to brides for something as special as their wedding wear. I cannot in good faith recommend her to other brides for wedding alterations but think she is better off working in garments that are lower stakes. My biggest complaints are: - She gives you attitude if you push back or have feedback on work she's already done. She is very unwilling to course correct or adjust. - Is not the most respectful of your time. During my bridal appointment, she would allow multiple clients to come in and out during it and other customers would also offer commentary on my dress which I found extremely inappropriate. - Often had to be reminded to do a complete job. Some times the dress wasn't ready or hemmed yet and still had pins which resulted in at least 2 more appointments than necessary. - Lacking attention to detail. I had to clean up a lot of loose ends, fraying, threads, trim excess fabric, remove pencil marks when my final dress was done. I expected better for the price point I paid. - Finally and most egregiously, I asked Nina to sew on appliqué fabric I provided to my veil, both which were custom. She initially sewed the appliqués to the wrong side and said she would correct it by removing and resewing. When I received the final veil, it was beautiful but I noticed that rather than correcting her mistakes, Nina cut the entire veil from the hair comb and resewed it on. I found this to be extremely dishonest and upsetting. She also cut up the fabric I provided and butchered a lot of beautiful details I was hoping to preserve. I found it incredibly misleading of Nina to cut corners and literally cut a perfectly created custom veil rather than owning up and taking the time to correct her mistakes. My dress ended up being fine and wearable ultimately, but it would've been more worth it for me to pay a bit more to have a better experience overall. I do not recommend this business for other brides specifically.
