I can't say enough good things about Meryem and her attention to detail! My daughter had a prom dress with so many layers. Meryem asked my daughter what she was thinking and listened to her wishes. Meryem gave her suggestions - and explained why! YAY!! The dress came out perfectly and my daughter received so many compliments. We easily scheduled the appointments for both the first and second fittings. You will receive one-to-one service since it is a small shop with a personal touch. The value of the work is beyond reasonable. Meryem's talent is beyond explanation. I would recommend Meryem at Tata's Distinctive Tailoring to anyone looking for a personalized, talented, and skilled seamstress. read more

I had the most amazing experience going to Meryem for my wedding gown alterations. I bought my dress off the rack only 2 months before my wedding, and I went to see Meryem to shorten the straps, tighten the top, and add a bustle. Less than a month before the wedding, I decided I'd really like sleeves. Meryem told me if I bring her the fabric, she will make them for me. I brought in the fabric and an inspiration picture and I am absolutely amazed with the results. Not only did my dress fit perfectly, it was a one of a kind piece of art. Even better than the inspiration picture. Meryem is so talented, and very considerate of making sure it's done with extra time to spare before the event. This is the best place to go for your tailoring and alteration needs. read more

Outrages prices! no clear communication! She won't tell you an estimate until she fits you. She will tell you at the counter the price and if you don't agree she will charge you a 25$ fitting fee where there is no sign in the store that says that. She will just argue with you. Just a way to scam people. Be aware. Not worth 1 star read more

What a great find! The service, quality and friendliness of this shop are exceptional. I had my wedding dress altered, a sweaters' arm length shortened and back buttons reconfigured, and my daughters dress fitted to her and every experience here was wonderful! The garments came out absolutely beautiful, she's an artist. read more

Meryem was absolutely wonderful to work with for my wedding gown and my mother's gown. Taking bridal appointments on Sunday mornings and giving us her undivided attention was wonderful. She is very talented and trustworthy. She listened well to all of our concerns and we left with perfectly altered dresses, and detailed instructions for the day of the wedding. I am so glad we found her! read more

I had the most amazing experience getting my wedding ballgown altered at Tata's Distinctive Tailoring. I originally bought my dress from David's Bridal and realized it was way too big, and needed to be tailored. I called in and made an appointment right away. Service is always friendly and professional. She made me feel comfortable and confident in my wedding dress throughout all of the necessary fittings. My gown had intricate beading, and due to the nature of the alternations, she had to remove each of the hundreds of beads by hand, take in the material, and re-sew the beading back by hand. To say she is talented is an understatement. I would trust Tata's Distinctive Tailoring with any tailoring need, from something as simple as hemming to something as important as your wedding dress! Her prices were reasonable and she completed my dress far in advance to my deadline for the wedding. I will absolutely be returning to her with any future business, in addition to recommending her services to my family and friends. I highly recommend this professional and talented business. read more

I am so grateful for Tata's Distinctive Tailoring for making my wedding dress absolutely perfect for the big day. I had reached out with a last-minute tailoring need for the dress and Tata's went above and beyond to make sure it was ready for the day and fit like a glove. Service was so professional and thorough--I would recommend Tata's 100 times over. Great to work with! read more

She did a wonderful job altering my wedding dress! Highly recommend

This place is great. I was looking for a tailor to shorten the length of a gown I wanted to wear for an upcoming formal. I found Tata's on yelp and decided to give it a try. Service was prompt when I came in. I was able to put on my dress and all the measurements for alteration were quickly, but diligently finished in a reasonable time. I was told that my dress would be ready about 5 days later. I called ahead of time to see if it would be okay if I came a few days later than than that and she was very accommodating to my needs. The service was great. It is a little pricier, but if it's an important dress/suit or event then you don't want to take your chances cutting corners to save a few bucks. Overall, I am very happy with my experience here. I had previously tried going to a place in west Hartford where I was all but pushed out after being refused because I wanted a dress tailored in a weeks time during "prom season." I will be returning here for all of my tailoring needs. read more

My fiancee and I are both women getting married very soon. We needed a tailor to hem and fix up our wedding dresses. Someone recommended Tata's and we couldn't be more pleased! We haven't seen each others dresses and told her that we would both be getting them tailored at Tata's but to keep them separate. She did amazing! Always checked and verified the name before she showed the dress. We each had 3 fittings and after the first fitting, we already had a quote. Her pricing is incredible, her service is prompt, and her work is perfect! Highly recommend to everyone! I will be coming back for all my tailoring needs. read more

She is a wonderful tailor and very accommodating. I asked for something pretty quick and she did it for me. And perfect work as well. I would take any of my clothes to her! read more

My experience was fantastic. She did a great job with a difficult bridesmaids dress that needed extensive alterations and got it done in a timely manner. The end result was fit perfectly to my body while still looking exactly like the dress was intended. Would recommend to anyone looking for a skilled seamstress. read more

Really beautiful job tailoring and quick to get done. Awesome pricing and easy process. This place is the way to go!

I ordered a wedding dress online for my daughter and even though it was "custom" it was too large for her. I thought of altering it myself but was nervous about the fabric so I took it to Tata's Distinctive Tailoring. Meryem did a terrific job and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again. She is also extremely nice! read more

Meryem is an excellent tailor and truly committed to making her customers happy! I brought in a bridesmaid dress looking to get it taken out because I ordered a size too small. She tailored just the parts that needed to be taken out and it looks amazing. The dress has a very elegant netting over it and I can't tell that anything has been done to it. I was referred to by a friend and am so happy to have found her. I am definitely going back to her :) read more

I don't write reviews for Yelp often, honestly I primarily use Urban Spoon. However, when it's outside of the realm of food, I come here. I had just bought a pair of stylish bandana-pattern shorts only to come home and realize that there was a stupid flair-ish thing circling the bottom of both pant legs, and to make it even worse, they fell a little below the knee. A friend of mine who lives in Avon reccomended Tata's Distinctive Tailoring. Walking in, I knew I had made the right choice. A huge smile from every employee greeted me. When I went to give the tailor the shorts, I realized I didn't measure how much I wanted taken off! No matter though, I held them up to my legs and she happily marked where they'd be cut off. Just one day later I went back and got my shorts. A perfect length, and no more of the stupid looking flair seam on the bottom. I have since gone back to have a suit tailored and could not be more pleased with the results. They really know what they are doing. And to top it all off? Very fair prices. So there ya have it folks- Great tailoring, great staff, great prices. It doesn't get much better! read more

I've used Tatas a few times now, she's done several big pieces, such as coats, and every single item has been done to perfection. I found her to be reasonably priced, I tried taking a coat somewhere nearby and was shocked at how much they wanted. Not only am I leaving my garment in good hands, but I get it back within a week or less. She always has a smile on her face, and is a lovely person to talk with. I'm all for supporting small, local business, especially when they actually care about their customers. I highly recommend Tatas. read more
