Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Do I need an appointment, or do you accept walk-ins?

Yes, we accept walk-ins for general tailoring services when availability allows. However, appointments are highly recommended, especially for wedding dress alterations, formal wear, and complex tailoring projects. Scheduling an appointment ensures dedicated time with an experienced tailor and allows us to properly evaluate your garment.

2. How long do alterations usually take?

Alteration timelines depend on the type and complexity of the garment. Simple alterations such as hemming pants or basic adjustments may take a few days, while wedding dress alterations typically require several weeks to allow for fittings and precision work. Rush alteration services may be available depending on our current schedule.

3. How much do tailoring services cost?

Tailoring prices vary based on the garment design, fabric, construction, and level of work required. We provide custom quotes after an in-person fitting to ensure accuracy. Our pricing reflects 25+ years of professional tailoring experience, couture-level techniques, and careful attention to detail. We are happy to discuss estimated price ranges during your visit.

7. What should I bring to my fitting?

For the best results, please bring:

The shoes you plan to wear on the event day
Undergarments or shapewear you will wear with the dress
Any accessories that affect fit (belt, straps, sleeves, etc.)

Bringing these items helps ensure accurate measurements and a flawless final fit.
