    Bridesmaids dress tailored perfectly!
    Fiona H.

    Sage saves the day again!!! I was hours from my bridal shower and my cleaners messed up my dress. Due to time constraints I didn't think I would be able to get the dress cleaned and then bring to Sage to alter. I called her crying and panicking while getting my hair done and she reassured me she could help. I sent pictures of the dress as well as how much I wanted altered and taken off. My friend then drove the dress (while I was still in my hair appointment) to Sage to alter the hem. She did a perfect job! Literally saving me in a crisis. I would never go anywhere else for alterations and could not recommend her more. She goes above and beyond for all her clients and her work is pristine. I love you Sage! See you soon with my many additional Bridal outfits that need all your help and love. You are the BEST.

    Sage and Charlotte absolutely saved the day when it came to an unfinished alterations job on my wedding dress, and on very short notice at that! I had a pretty bad experience with another alterations shop and called Sophos to see what could be done on my very tight timeline (1 week) to get my dress taken in since the other shop didn't get it done when they said they would. I was really upset at the situation but Charlotte was super reassuring on the phone and even pulled up the dress online to get a better feel for the work that needed to be done on it. She made me an appointment for that week, so I came in, got pinned, and the dress was ready when they said it would be ready the following week. Both Sage and Charlotte are calm, nice people who clearly know what they are doing when it comes to their craft! I felt absolutely beautiful in the dress as they made it look exactly how it needed to look, and their pricing was very reasonable, even including an extra fee for a rush job. Also, the shop itself is adorable and clean and they have a really large fitting room as well. Definitely check this place out next time you're in need of alterations! Thank you Sophos!!

    Very happy I found this upholstery shop in the neighborhood. My dining chairs were splitting at the seams and I brought them in for repair. After discussing the options, I decided to reupholster the chairs to avoid the seam splitting issue. Sophos had several fabric options available including vinyl and leather and a good selection of colors. We ended up going with dark blue leather and they look great. I know that they will last longer now.

    Boning bowing because it was so tight

    I'll say I'm relatively happy with my wedding dress alterations at Sophos. The cons; my dress was too tight, too long, and the appointments were spaced out quite a lot. They ended up needing to replace my zipper because I guess the one on the dress was "cheap". But they also took it in about an inch so they didn't take into account the allowance for the new zipper making the dress extremely tight on my back. It was so tight after I had it on for 10 minutes during my fitting I had red lines on my back. So on my wedding day it was pretty uncomfortable and was miserable to sit and eat dinner in. There was boning on the inside and because the dress was about an inch too small now the boning was bending all crazy because I was stuffed in there. The dress hem was also too long which I mentioned I'd be in grass the whole time so I wanted it shorter, and they altered it twice and I was still tripping over it. I started the alterations process in May which was 4 months before my wedding. In total I had 3 appointments; the 1st, the second 2 months later, the 3rd 2 months after that and picked up only 1 week before my wedding. It felt pretty rushed I would've liked to not have them so spread out so I could've actually taken the time to see how I liked things instead of freaking out I was a week away from my wedding. The last thing I'll say is it's an old building and they're doing a lot of sewing, so there is dust on the floor. This would be totally fine if you're not trying a long white dress on, a nice sweeping before appointments would've made me feel a lot better. Especially because I didn't have time to get my dress dry cleaned before the wedding as I only had a week before the date. Prices were a little more than I thought, wasn't expecting a zipper replacement on a new dress though.

    Sophos saved my wedding! After a disaster destroyed my first dress Sophos altered my replacement wedding dress in less than a week and it was beautiful. I truly couldn't be more grateful for this place and for Sage, who is so incredibly kind and talented.

    I had a zipper replaced on a jacket that was kind of a difficult job. They did great work at a reasonable price. Plus, they're very nice!

    A+ all the way. I stopped in last December to inquire about an old chair I wanted reupholstered. I…read moremet with Paula, who was able to give me a quote, had me choose seat cushion firmness and took my deposit. I had some sale upholstery fabric from Fishman's I wanted to use and they were totally fine with that. She let me know that due to their workload they wouldn't be able to get to it until the summer, which I was ok with. The shop called when they were ready to come get the old chair and promptly picked it up the next day. The job only took a week and I paid the balance over the phone by credit card. The chair was delivered today and it looks great. The fabric worked out well and the quality of the work is excellent. I'm looking forward to sitting in it to read in our living room for many years to come.

They informed us a couple of days later that they did not have the materials that appeared in inventory for the job but could substitute some others. While we did not go forward with the order - since we did not like the alternative materials - we still give them kudos for quickly reversing the credit charge. While they may want to work on their inventory listings to provide the correct options, we have no problem with their solution. We went somewhere else for our job, but would not hesitate to give Paul's another chance. Try them.
