Twelve Tailoring was recommended to me by the boutique I got my wedding dress at and I am very happy with the service they provided! They bustled my dress in a way that didn't take away from the elegance and took it in at the waist so it fit like a glove. They were friendly and were also able to get it done in the short time frame that I had. Would recommend them to others! read more

OK - the big day went great and that's all that matters! I had to have an extra set of alterations because the first set was stitched incorrectly (not poor quality, just wrong type of stitch for the desired result) so that had to be ripped out and re-done. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They also managed to squeeze one of my bridesmaids in for a quick, same day alteration which was super appreciated. The end quality was great, but the added stress (the week before my wedding of additional alterations appointments to fix something I didn't break) was not what I needed :) read more

Came in same day to get something patched and it was done in minutes. Instant gratification!

Arriee was so nice and extremely helpful! Very passionate about her job and works very fast. Will definitely come back here again.

Needed a dress altered quickly for my sisters wedding. When I bought the dress I weighed 40lbs more. They quickly took me in, had me fitted and got the dress back in no time at all. Reasonably priced, very polite and fun to deal with and a true family local business. I will never go somewhere else! read more

I needed to get measurements for a bridesmaid dress. I was looking for a place close to my job. When I called, I was able to make a same day appointment (actually an appointment for about 30 mins after my call). The gentleman who answered provided directions, but it can be difficult to find if you're unfamiliar with the area. I was in and out within 5 minutes. The lady (who I think is the owner) was friendly and professional. The measurements were $10. They accept CashApp and PayPal which is an added bonus. read more

Great experience. Everything done when promised and very high quality work. Plus the ladies are very friendly!

These ladies at Twelve Tailoring were so nice and worked quick/efficient ! the stitch work on my dress shirt is beautiful and they got it done in time for my wedding ! I had button holes and sleeve length adjusted and on my first fitting it was perfect ! They were well priced and I highly recommend ! read more

Though I hope I was a pretty low-maintenance, non-"bridezilla", bride, I definitely cut it close with alterations for my wedding gown. It was a BHLDN gown with lots of beading and lace patches on tulle. I got it online secondhand and miraculously it fit nearly perfectly. The biggest need for altering was the length of the dress so that's the initial reason we needed a tailor. Arrie was so kind and extremely helpful over the phone. In person, she made me feel very comfortable during the fittings and seemed genuinely interested in hearing about my wedding. She got the length figured out and suggested we could take in the sides a bit and I'm so glad she mentioned that. It really made the dress fit perfectly! Besides the general alteration routine, I cut it close by giving her the dress about two weeks before the wedding (oops). I do not recommend doing that, purely for their sakes and as a common courtesy in this line of business. However, Arrie handled it very well and I am so appreciative of her kindness and BEAUTIFUL work making my dress perfect. I will recommend Twelve Tailoring immediately if anyone I know needs alterations! She did excellent work and honestly helped me be more excited than stressed about my wedding (quite a feat, ha!). read more

Used for bridal gown alterations. Everyone was so helpful and made my first appointment such a fun experience!

the best i have ever had tailor my clothes!! thank you !!! i highly recommend there services !!

Arrie did a fantastic job altering the length of my wedding dress and adding a little french bustle flair. She was kind and easy to work with, it is clear that she puts a lot of effort into her work, the stitching was perfect. 10/10 will be using her for all my future alterations. read more

I had a last minute alteration needed for my daughter's wedding, and she couldn't have been nicer while doing a wonderful job. Couldn't recommend more! read more

I brought uniforms here to be patched in mass amounts and they were able to take all of them and get them back in a couple weeks. I was extremely impressed with their attention to detail and kindness! I will definitely be returning soon! read more

I cannot thank Arrie enough for the beautiful job she did on my wedding dress. She put in a corset, fixed the straps so my dress didn't have to go over my head and added a belt I bought to the front of the dress. It made all the difference in the world to the dress. I would recommend her to anyone as she was a pleasure to work with and had great ideas! Thanks again! read more

Arrie was great to work with for my wedding dress. I only needed a hem and she was hesitant when I told her I wanted to hike it a bit higher than a normal hem, but I was so happy with our work. I also had Arrie sew in a bra for my dress so I had some support. I just brought in a bra and let her put it in however she needed to. Totally worthy bra sacrifice. The only downside was that Arrie tacked on a sash to my dress and added some embellishments. The tacks broke on my wedding day and the embellishment started coming off. We were able to hot glue everything back together (because we didn't have a sewing kit on hand), but it definitely was almost a crisis. read more

Absolutely amazing work. I brought in a tuxedo to have tailored for a wedding in 2 days. I was hesitant to use a new tailor; especially on a vintage item; but Arrie is not only extremely knowledgeable, but one of the most polite and professional people in town. In the end, she suggested alterations I didn't notice I needed, and knocked everything out right on time; without cutting corners or taking shortcuts, despite the time crunch. I'm looking forward to bringing some other items to her that are in the closet awaiting repair/alterations, in addition to custom orders. read more

Twelve Tailoring - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - North Charleston, South Carolina

I brought in a bridesmaid dress that needed several different alterations- the bust had to be taken in, it had to be hemmed and straps had to be added. I got a very resonable quote via Yelp and when I went in, the price they gave matched my online quote. For comparison it was just over half what a place downtown wanted for the same job. I walked in without an appointment and still the whole process was quick, smooth and the service was very friendly. The girl who pinned my dress during my initial visit even suggested ways I might alter the dress in the future to make it more casual since I mentioned don't have any need for a formal floor length gown after the wedding. Twelve Tailoring got the dress back to me in two weeks (during the beginning of wedding and prom season) and it fit perfectly. I was 100% happy with the alterations and the service was great. I won't hesitate to return for any future tailoring I need. The service, price and work was absolutely amazing! read more

I had a jumpsuit that felt like it was two feet too long for me! Arrie was super friendly and had it done in just a week. The quality of the hem was great as well and i would definitely recommend her! read more

Great experience with expensive Italian suits. She was on time, very professional, willing to make adjustment with great attitude and hospitality. Results are great! read more

I needed to find a tailor to get a bridesmaids dress altered and hemmed. Twelve tailoring was the only place near me that was available. I got an appointment on Tuesday to have them size me into my gown with 4 inches taken off the bottom. I needed the dress done by the next Thursday since I was flying home. They were able to get all the alterations done in the 9 days I had in the middle of prom season. The alterations fit perfectly and the hem worked well with my heels. A little sad that the alterations cost more than the dress it's self ($90 versus $79 for the dress), but it's for a wedding and I can't change the body style to fit me exactly. My only complaint was that I was told it would be ready by 7 pm the day before I flew out and if it was done earlier they would call me. When I called at 430 on the last day I had to pick it up they said it was already done. If it had been done earlier I could have picked it up my way home from work (or a day earlier to make sure it fit and could have done any last minute alterations) and not had to make a special trip to pick it up in the evening. read more

Arrie did a great job hemming, adding a bustle, and shortening the straps on my wedding dress. She even went out of her way to steam the dress without me asking. She is professional and friendly. It was a great experience from start to finish. I love my dress even more now! read more

Beautiful job! Arrie saved the day for me, just days away from her welcoming her baby she took the time to alter my dresses(2) for my wedding. Thank you soooo much. Our day was perfect and my dress got a ton of compliments and fit like a glove. read more

I brought in a few dress pants to be hemmed, and a suit jacket to be taken in at the waist. For the jacket, Arrie suggested taking in the sleeves a bit, too, to create a more proportional shape. I picked up the clothes today and everything fits perfectly! Arrie was also able to accommodate our shortened timetable of 10 days (vs the standard two weeks). Her work is superior, and she and her husband were very friendly and helpful. I'll be bringing any further tailoring needs to her business, and recommending her to others! Thanks so much, Arrie! read more

Excellent customer service! Arrie was very personable and made the alteration experience quick and fast. My dress was altered to perfection in a week and it was very inexpensive!! Hoping I'll need something altered again in the near future so I can come back. Again, thank you Arrie! :) read more

Wish I got the name of the girl who did my dress but she did an AMAZING time and such a quick turnaround - less than a week! Not to mention how friendly and helpful she was! Thanks again. Any dress I need fixed from here out I will bring to this shop! THANK YOU! read more

Friendly, fast, reasonable pricing, and knowledgeable! I procrastinated getting my bridesmaid dress altered (dress was snug at the waist and the open back could not close; being short 3 or 4 inches). I walked in to Twelve Tailoring and the owner, Arrie, was able to find some extra fabric in the seams and do it flawlessly! She even suggested putting a clasp on the dress which was awesome because the other bridesmaids had issues with theirs popping open while mine held all night. I know she stayed late getting the dress just right so I could pick it up the next day and feel like a princess in it. I'm definitely using them for future alteration. Thank you again! read more

Very reasonable, awesome customer service, well worth the drive. I found her on yelp, after the alterations lady I'd been going to in Hanahan closed. I'm glad I found her. Fast, polite and very reasonable on price. She had my business in the future. read more

I brought in two dresses to get hemmed and taken in. One of them was pretty tricky to fix. I went to one place who told me it would cost $60 just for one. Arrie did both dresses for less than that! She finished them on time and they fit like a dream -- exactly what I wanted. Arrie was very friendly and personable. I am very impressed with this business! read more

Just to start Arrie from the moment I walked in the door was a lovely woman. She was so welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. I came to pick up my dress once it was done which might I add I needed a few different alterations and still she made happen so quickly even during prom season and the dang thing is PERFECT. I was in a hurry needing to get back to work but because of my first experience with Arrie I trusted her so I did not try it on right then. Once I got home and tried it on boy was I blown away. I feel absolutely beautiful in this dress. Thank you so so so much Arrie! If I could give 10 stars I would. read more

I'm a strong supporter of Black owned businesses and I support our businesses 100% because I am a black own business owner. I do not and cannot in good conscience recommend this business. I took a designer suit for alteration paid $90 in advance and my suit was not altered correctly after an initial fitting and when I went to pick it up on March 1, 2018... fitted again it was still not done correctly. Pointed out to Mrs. Arrie all the areas that needed to be adjusted and wasn't done correctly. After I said that I had sewn for years but I just didn't have the time to do it was why I brought it to Twelve Tailoring to have it done....She said she was working on it when I came. Well, if the pick up date is March 1 and you were paid in advance....you shouldn't be working on it when I come to pick it up. When I came out from changing she was sitting at the sewing machine and sent her husband to tell me she would fix the suit and call me when it was ready. My pick up date was March 1 and this conversation was taking place on March 1. Her husband called me that evening to tell me the suit was ready........I picked it up the next day....jacket still to big lining messed up....skirt stitcbed down both sides....lining not adjusted......top never touched........out of $90 and designer suit still not altered correctly......instead of messing up people stuff it's too easy to say "I can't do it". read more

Done right and on time, My new tuxedo pants needed hemed and fitted Arrie had the job done perfectly and on time. First class service all the way. I highly recommend the Twelve Tailors. read more

Arrie did an awesome job altering my bridesmaid dress. I went in thinking I would need several alterations made to the dress, but she was quickly able to point out that by fixing one thing, it would in turn fix all other issues I was having. I really appreciated that and found it to be very professional. Arrie was able to have the garment done in a reasonable amount of time. I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone!! read more

I'm so glad I came upon Arrie with Twelve Tailoring. I recently became a new homeowner and was in desperate need of help with altering my drapes. Arrie so graciously came to my home and assisted in measuring 10 of my drapes. She then had them hemmed and back to me in one week- fantastic turn-around time! And all with confidence and a big smile on her face! She was a joy to work with and because of her, that stress has been lifted off my shoulders. I look forward to hiring her in the future to not only hem more drapes, but also bridesmaids dresses, etc. I definitely recommend her and plan to refer her to my friends. Thanks Arrie! read more

I'm writing this review based off of my experience thus far with this establishment, albeit I haven't received the finished services yet, i am more than confident my follow up review will also have five stars. It's hidden in a small building right off of Dorchester, so you'll really have to look for it, but the inside was quaint, clean, and simple. The owner was exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and sweet. Even more exceptional were the prices. Where most places seem to charge 20$ per garment for a simple stitch, this place is altering 3 of my favorite dresses, shortening, redarting, reinforcing straps, and putting in bra cups for 50$!!!! She also said they can be done by Thursday, of this week, And it's Monday! That's amazing. Last place I went said 2 weeks, and when I went back to get the 3 alterations, they were still not done and I had to wait another week, and they still charged almost 100, even AFTER applying a discount for being late. Meh. I'm really excited about this place and the final results. You can tell this woman knows what she's doing! read more
