I took my wedding dress to Kim to have the alterations done. She took great care of my dress and took her time with the work she was doing - she had me come for three fittings to make sure it was absolutely perfect and I was happy with it. She took length off my dress, shortened the straps, and added a bustle to the train. Kim is kind and cares very much for her clients. I had a great experience with her and her expertise made me feel comfortable and in good hands. She was also very reasonably priced. Please support this woman's business!

I am giving them 2.5 stars for two reasons, 1) I wanted to add an elastic waist around a skirt I had. We took measurements and everything but when I came back after two weeks she told me it wouldn’t look good so instead she just brought in the waist. It wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted an elastic waist on my skirt because my body fluctuates so much and wanted to feel more comfortable in this skirt I love so much. And I still had to pay for it even though she just took in half an inch. 2) I brought in an inherited long knit cardigan and I wanted the sleeves tailored. She again told me it wouldn’t look good and she wouldn’t do it. I ended up going to the tailor next door, who said it was 100% doable and did it that week and it looked great. I just feel like we weren’t on the same page and she only wanted to do what she thought looked good and what would be easiest for her. I’m sorry! I hate writing a bad review but it’s been on my chest and had to let y'all know.

Great place to get your alterations done! This is a family run business and they are amazing! Kim is one of the kindest people you'll ever meet and knows how to make things fit well. Everyone in my family uses her for more complicated alterations.

I had such a great experience here. I have never taken a dress or garment in to a tailor or seamstress by myself before since I’m newly graduated from college, and found good reviews. Kim was super nice and extremely professional!! I got my dress hemmed to the exact length I wanted with a super soft satin fabric that was very delicate and looks amazing. She also adjusted the top to fit around the bust and that also was perfect. She was super speedy and the dress was done two weeks after the day I brought it in just like she said. I highly, highly recommend!

Let me just start by saying I’m a petite woman. The first time I went I wanted the hem and cups sewn in my bridesmaids dress. I went back and no cups were in the dress, Kim told me I had to bring my own. Went back for the 4th time to pick up my dress with the cups sewn in, I’m still not happy. The strap around my neck is too tight and the cups are sewn in by a few stitches on each side. Alittle loose and floppy on my small frame. I will be taking my dress somewhere else sadly.
