    The absolute best. Pricey, but worth every penny unless you are not picky about how your clothes are tailored.

    There's a reason the celebs in the area like Diana Ross go to Ted - his measurements are spot on, he's quick, and the stitching is perfect.

I've been a client for nearly a decade, and it's been amazing to see their growth. Over the years I've visited a number of their NYC studios such as Union Square, Grand Central, SoHo, West Village, Tribeca, and every single time I've been blown away by their service. You get what you pay for! They always go above and beyond to make sure everything fits perfectly, and somehow manage to make the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. At the new Greenwich studio, I worked with Humberto, the lead fitter, and he was fantastic--friendly, professional, and put me completely at ease. The studio itself is gorgeous: stylish, chic, and perhaps one of the nicest Alts locations I've been to. Plus, there's plenty of parking right on Putnam Avenue, which makes it super convenient. I recently brought in more than 10 garments (dresses, sweaters, skirts and jeans). Mix of complex and simple alterations. It's incredible that they are able to handle everything with ease. I also needed some outfits rushed for an event and the team was able to accommodate my short window. Within just 3 days I got an email that everything was ready for pickup--and the tailoring was flawless! Thank you to Jess, the store manager, and the front desk receptionist--they were both so welcoming and professional. Couldn't be happier and highly recommend Alts for any alteration needs, no matter how complex or simple.

    I am so upset I could cry. I have been to this tailor once before to have some jeans hemmed and he…read moredid a fine job so I figured I would come here to have a bridesmaid dress altered. I literally took the dress out of the bag at the tailor and left it there. When I came back today to pick it up (and try it on) I noticed immediately what looked like a grease stain. When I asked if the tailor had steamed it or anything he replied with a "a little bit" (i now realize he must have started to steam it, stained it and stopped because it's only half steamed anyway). When I told him what I noticed, he immediately became defensive, crossing his arms and telling me that clothes come with stains all the time, how do I know it happened there and that I just didn't see it. When I told him there is no way that it could have happened anywhere else, that it was brand new, never worn and that I stood on his pedestal staring at myself while he pinned the dress and that there was no way it was there before, he told me "well who cares". When I said that I cared and that this was a bridesmaid dress for a wedding he said "then get it dry cleaned". I wasn't asking for anything from him, I didn't ask for my money back or even an apology but this is a horrible thing to happen and any reasonable business person who at least attempt to make me feel better or apologize or maybe even offer to pay for dry cleaning. STAY FAR AWAY

I needed 2 inches of material and maybe there was an 1/4 inch inside the hem to let out. The outcome was very grim, but he said he'd give it his best shot. Well somehow he found 4 little spots that he could let out and the dress fits perfect! I'm so relieved and so happy I took it to him. Highly recommend.
