Her knowledge of fabrics and fit are unparalleled, and it's clear that she's very experienced in her craft. She explained how the fabric would stretch and move, and how the dress would lay once she was done. She was extremely professional and clearly outlined the cost for each piece of the alterations. I wanted to incorporate a piece of my mom's dress into my gown, and she worked with me to add that special touch. From the moment I walked into her studio I felt comfortable, and I knew she would help me feel confident on my wedding day. Throughout the process she often asked for my opinion, taking great care to make sure I felt amazing. She calmed all my nerves and made my dress fittings one of the most relaxing parts of wedding planning.

I bought a pair of pants from a thrift store that were just a little too long for me, so I brought…read morethem to Dia Boutique to get it hemmed. It was as easy as walking in and telling the owner what I wanted, and she took a look at the pants and gave an incredibly affordable price of $15. She asked if I wanted to try them on, I assume to take measurements herself; I had already done so haphazardly at home myself, but maybe I should have taken her up on it. Nevertheless, my pants were ready the very next day and she did a great job! The stitching is practically invisible and even better than it looked originally. Would definitely come back for any tailoring needs and perhaps to buy a qipao dress if I'm looking for one.

I wanted a traditional qi pao for my wedding. My mother had brought me to a couple stores in…read moreflushing to find the perfect one. Now, let me say this. I don't have a typical Chinese woman's body. I was raised in America and I somehow was blessed/cursed with being very top heavy and don't fit it normal Chinese sizes. The first store I went to with my mom in flushing NY had a very rude woman who continued to tell me that I'm such an American and am too big and nothing In her store would fit me and that I would need something custom made for over $400 dollars. The second store, also in flushing told me very similar except she was much better and searched her stock. She was able to find a qi pao that fit me. However, she also recommended given my figure, to custom make something as well. Finally my cousin and his now wife got married late last year and recommended I visit Dia Boutique in Philly. Now it's a bit of a drive for us but we heard great recommendations and figured we make a day trip out of it. I can not say enough nice things about the owners of this store. Dia boutique is a small store who somehow knew their customers needs. They didn't tell me that I was fat or that I was so American. They actually complimented me and told me how excellent my Cantonese was and how she wants to help me find the perfect dress. They had several dresses I fit into in multiple different color variations. When they didn't have my size for a red one, the owner went out of their way to find me my traditional red one that I wanted and was successful at it! While searching for it, I also found a beautiful white one I fell in love with. We also found my fiancé a nice top as well. We left the store, so happy, and having only spent $210 for 3 items when flushing would have cost me over $400 for just 1. I can not say enough great things about Dia boutique and the lovely owners who made me laugh, made me feel comfortable and helped me find my dream qi pao for my wedding. Super impressed!

Olga did such a fantastic job altering my wedding dress! I bought my Pronovias dress 2 sizes larger…read morethan me, and Olga took the time to alter it to perfection for me. She had to modify the delicate lace in the back to match my sizing, modify the train, and hem it. I could not have been happier with the final product, and it made me comfortable on my big day. I also live in NYC, but the wedding was in Delaware, so Olga was attentive to making time in her schedule to accommodate when I was in Delaware for fittings and such. Not to mention it was a pleasure spending time with her! I highly recommend going to Olga for your wedding dress and other alterations.

She made sure that I wasn't losing too much of my outer layer appliqué from the hem, the bustle was secure, and she added horse hair hem on the inner layers to allow the dress to fan out.

I was worried my dress would be difficult to walk in, but she hemmed it to the perfect length and added something underneath to make it easier to walk in. I had no issues, even walking through the grass. Also, the way she did the bustling for the dress made it very easy for my friends/family to bustle, day of the wedding.

The top portion of my dress was far too large when I first brought it in, but Sara did a great job both resizing it and refitting the lace. It felt like a dream to wear it!

We did a large rework of the top of the dress that included moving the waist, adding boning, adding lace, and adjusting the overall fit. Sarah also removed the train from my gown as I had an overskirt so I decided to not have a bustle. She always made me feel comfortable and was always on point. She helped me make design decisions about my dress but always listened to what I wanted. She was by far my favorite vendor for the whole wedding experience. Each appointment I was excited not only to see my dress but also to see her. I highly recommend Sara for your wedding gown needs.

She did an absolutely amazing job, and I am so excited to wear it on my special day. Not only is her craftsmanship stunning, but she also completed the alterations in a very timely manner. Milana, an associate at Irina Sigal, also provided information for cleaning my dress after the wedding which was extremely helpful! While bridal alterations can be a high cost, every single penny was worth it for the peace of mind and the perfect fit. If you want your dress in the best possible hands, go to Irina!

The staff who work here are extremely nice, but I found Irina to be very abrasive and made what should be a kind of fun / exciting thing stressful and unpleasant. I felt very rushed during the initial appointment, and then was not spoken to kindly during my second appointment. I was also told the second fitting was my last one even though I was still ~2 months out from my wedding - I commented that I thought people typically did a fitting closer to their wedding and was told that's not the case. Again, the alterations weren't bad, just not a very pleasant customer service experience.
