After sitting down and waiting, looking at each other and wondering if we should leave, finally when she was good and ready were we acknowledged. My friend put her blouse on and together they went over things, and the blouse was pinned. After a brief conversation, the owner abruptly said, "I don't want to do this you won't be happy" and literally turned on her heel and walked away. This actually happened! She went to her sewing machine and started working on another order. My friend, in shock, still stood in the same place with her arms out from all the pins. I went over to my friend and said I will help you remove all the pins, and we had to do it ourselves after the owner 'dismissed' her. Finally she came back over and offered to help, but we declined...couldn't get out of there fast enough! Do NOT go there. Especially if you don't have what she deems as an easy alteration. She is quite gruff and lacks refined manners. I truly cannot understand all the positive reviews, or what the heck she is doing in Lexington.

Now, onto the reason for the two stars. $125.00 to put gussets in a bridesmaid dress on short notice?! I understand that silk chiffon is very difficult to work with, and doing anything in a rush is inconvenient, but my tailor had quoted me $70.00 for the same work. Unfortunately she was out of town, and I had to try to find a tailor in a matter of days to get the dress completed. Luckily, I stumbled upon Colonial, but I feel pretty confident I could've found better. After bringing in the dress, I was quoted what I consider a rather outrageous price, simply because I was desperate at the time. Being a negotiator by profession, I knew the tailor was taking advantage of me because I was out of options - evidenced by the fact that she was incessantly trying to justify the price by reminding me of how difficult it was going to be to alter my dress, how she was really doing me a favor, and how working with silk chiffon is "like surgery." Figuring I was going to get $125.00 worth of work done, I left my dress for alterations and returned to pick it up a few days later. The dress fit just fine - except that you could see my bra on both sides despite the fact that I'd worn the exact same bra for the fitting, and the seams on the gussets were pretty crooked. Again, I was reminded of just how much work was put into removing some fabric from the sides and sewing it in as gussets. My fault for being in such a hurry and not negotiating the price down, but still - I won't be returning. I'll just have to pray my own seamstress never leaves town again!

I honestly have no idea how difficult or time consuming my request was, but I had an amount in mind as to what it would cost. Her quote was higher than expected- but again I'm extremely pleased with the alterations she made, and I'll be back (if needed).
