Looks are deceiving- let's just say that! Got my down jacket dry cleaned and took a risk cause I'm…read morea risk taker. The risk really was how the store looked from the outside and inside? It's very no frills but wow what a lovely experience! The service was great and my jacket came back looking years younger (it was a hard task and I think the job was a well done!). The value was really appropriate and I will absolutely be back. Would def recommend- don't worry about what it looks like when you walk in lol

I had an off the rack suit that I needed tailored for an event. I found this tailor on Yelp, and…read morefigured I'd give them a try since the reviews were good. I'm glad that I did.

So I stopped in unexpectedly to get my romper hemmed because the pants were too long. The ladies…read morethere were so kind. They didn't know me as I had called a few minutes before and asked them if they could fix a sports top of mine that my dog had ripped the strap off of and then also fix my pants that were too long. They happily obliged. I was able to quickly go I into the makeshift dressing room they had, came out, and then one of the women got to work and started using pins to allocate the area that has to be trimmed. She was very patient and asked me if the length was ok several times. Whilst doing this and changing back into my other clothes, the other lady had already stitched the strap on my sports top. I was beyond happy. For my romper that they also offered to dry clean, they told me to return after a week and gave me a yellow ticket to note the date/time. I indeed returned about a week and half later to pick up my romper. It was neatly pressed and hemmed just right. They reminded me of a seamstress I went to back home in Miami. I feel lucky I found this store (thanks to Yelp of course). They had great reviews. How could I not? Should I need them again, I would definitely be back.

I found Philadelphia Bridal Alterations just scrolling on the internet. Didn't know what to expect…read morebut the reviews were amazing so I went ahead and booked and I couldn't have picked a better business. Ms Shirl was absolutely wonderful. She added a corset to the back, bustled the train and did the hem. The dress fit perfectly and I looked and felt amazing. I'm so happy with the final. Thank you so much Ms Shirl. I will definitely be back.

Shirl did an amazing job with altering my wedding dress. It was a sample dress so definitely needed…read moresome work. Not only did the dress fit like a glove, but every detail was impeccable. Shirl is also very responsive and I knew I was leaving my dress in great hands. Since Shirl started making her own dresses before she started altering them, she really understands how to adjust a dress in the most flattering way possible, and is a true expert at what she does. A huge bonus is that Shirl has an amazing sense of humor (dry and glorious!) which put me at ease during my fittings. I had plenty of options closer to me when I chose who would alter my dress, but am very happy I made the trek from South Philly to see Shirl!

I have gone to Barbara twice for two gown alterations, one being my wedding gown. She is my hidden…read moregem!! 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. The blue dress I had taken to her was about 3 sizes too large and Barbara was able to work her magic to properly fit the gown. Her attention to detail is like no other!

Basia is an exceptional seamstress. She helped me with my wedding dress alterations and was…read moreextremely detail oriented. She made it look PERFECT. 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. Thank you, Basia, you're the best!!!

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!

Been a customer here for several years now. I moved out of the city but still come here from time…read moreto time because their prices cannot be beat!! I've had similar gowns altered at other locations that were charging twice the price. The owners are very sweet once you get to know them, especially Alice! I saw a few comments saying they are rude. I personally have never gotten that vibe from them, they are simply just no nonsense people who are direct. They will tell you if they cannot do something that will potentially mess up your garment. I recently got my lace reception dress altered here and they did a great job and handled it with care. I really love them as tailors, they are the best!

I had a very disappointing experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt unwelcome. Instead of…read moreasking about my alterations or taking a look at my items, I was immediately questioned about what I wanted as if I wasn't at a tailoring shop. I was told they couldn't do any of my alterations before I even had the chance to show everything I brought. The interaction left me feeling uncomfortable and uneasy, and I ended up leaving without discussing all of my items. Whether they could complete the work or not, a more professional and welcoming approach would have made a big difference.

Steve showed me that the work needed for my jacket wasn't cost-effective and suggested that I return to the suit store for an exchange to a better fit. That made things even more critical as by the I received the new jacket I essentially had a 2-day turnaround. Amazingly, Steve was kind enough to include me in some select items he was doing on Monday, his normal day off. (I wouldn't expect him to do this for everyone.) Even then, he wasn't optimistic that the changes needed for my new jacket would be as effective as he would have liked to see. (It's not his skills but my...uniquely shaped torso, let's say. lol) Amazingly, not only did he complete the jacket and pants (which needed only minor work) in two days as promised, the jacket actually fit *perfectly* and I received many compliments at the function I wore it for. I'm forever grateful to Steve for his help and he has a loyal customer in me going forward.
