I couldn't be happier with the work done at this shop! My dress for my son's wedding was about four inches too big, (Thanks to the bridal shop...insert eyeroll) and I was honestly worried it wouldn't be possible to alter it without losing its shape. Not only did they make it fit perfectly, but they also preserved every detail beautifully, it looks like it was made just for me. The craftsmanship is exceptional, and you can really tell they take pride in their work. The staff was kind, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. They listened carefully to what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations. I'm so impressed with the quality, turnaround time, and overall experience. I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone in need of alterations. They truly work magic! read more

I take all of my stuff there. And i wouldn't go anywhere else. Katarina is the best. She has done several complicated alterations for me and they've all been perfect. And she's given me advice that has saved me from making bad decisions:) read more

Rude and incompetent. Stay away! The seamstress not only made me feel bad about the garment , but also was demeaning. read more

So disappointed. I had heard such great things about this place. There were two teenage boys at the front when I dropped off my blouse. The one pinned the blouse. I told him multiple time I wanted it shortened but that I wanted the shirt tail shape kept. He confirmed they would keep the shape. Nope. It's cut straight across the front with a weird curve in the back. I was in a hurry when I picked it up, but I made such a point of it when dropping it off that I didn't want to have to go over it all again anyway. Luckily it was only a thrift find and not an expensive item. I won't be returning. read more

I needed my bridesmaid dress hemmed roughly 1 inch. While I didn't ask for a quote (should have...) I was shocked when I picked up my dress and they said it was $95 for the work. Gold Thimble was recommended to me by the bride of the wedding I was standing up in, as she and many other members of her family were getting their dresses (and other garments) altered there. Somehow her dress only cost $150; straps needed to be adjusted and cup padding was added, so I am shocked that something as basic as a 1 inch hem could cost so much. Other garments were charged varying prices that I cannot make sense of. Had I known the price I would have just bought a taller pair of shoes. As I am planning my own wedding I know I will certainly not bring this establishment any of my business because I don't want my loved ones to get ripped off as I did. read more

I've gotten work done here several times and everything has always been done perfectly. They are very accommodating and have a friendly staff. Highly recommend. read more

I have been a long time customer of gold thimble but I'll never go back. Unprofessional, rude, and highway robbery are just a few of the words I'd use to describe this business. A few months ago I brought my dress for my daughters christening here. They assured me it would be ready the night before the christening (I brought it in about 3 weeks before the event). Needless to say she didn't "finish it in time" - I was stuck with a $120 bill and no dress to wear to her christening. I tried this business again, after some time had passed, asking for straps to be tightened on a dress. When told it would take over a week to be completed, i brought this dress to Blue Ribbon cleaners in red bank, who told me my alteration request would take him a total of 15 minutes to complete, and I could come back later in the day, at a much more reasonable price. read more

I brought in my wedding dress for alterations. I was nervous as I was on a tight schedule with a planned destination wedding but due to COVID didn't want to get too ahead of myself. They were quick and efficient and made the process a breeze. read more

Always an excellent job and fast turnover. Simple alterations could be done within a day or two

I'm a total snob and I buy my clothes in Italy, and then I bring them here to be tailored. I wouldn't trust just anyone to alter a $600 jacket or a $250 pair of pants but these delightful ladies do an excellent job. read more

Will NEVER go back. Quoted me $75 for a hen and shoulder lift on a dress. I thought that was high, but I needed it quickly, so I agreed. When I picked it up, she said, $95! I told her saw quoted me $75 and she denied it. She finally agreed, but then said since it was lined, she needed to charge more. She then claimed the original was an estimate and was $85, which it was not. Terrible service and when I told her I would not be back, she stated that she was already busy and didn't need more business anyway. Beware!!! read more

Katarina at the Gold Thimble saved the day for my wedding 2 months ago! I had gotten dress alterations where I purchased my gown in Morristown (Elizabeth John's) and they did a terrible job. After trying to get them to fix it, I finally gave up and brought my dress home. There was one wrinkle in the neckline that was fairly noticeable but I thought it could be pressed out. When the dry cleaners said they couldn't get the wrinkle out the day before my wedding, I took the dress to Katarina at the Gold Thimble. She was kind enough to see me at the last minute and although she was unable to fix the dress completely in the time she had (less than 24 hours!) she came up with a solution to cover the wrinkle. It took her a few hours, but in that time she took a piece of lace from the back of the dress and strategically placed it over the wrinkle. It perfectly blended with the other lace on the bodice and the wrinkle was no longer noticeable. It was perfect! AND she was able to fix a few other dress issues - loose hem, cups falling out, lace not fully sewn onto bodice, etc. I was so pleased and so grateful to the Gold Thimble and Katarina for their help. I really should have done my alterations with her to begin with!! read more

Excellent work and service from Katarina and the staff at The Gold Thimble! I was in a bind after another seamstress from another store quit on me last minute while alternating my wedding dress. Katarina took her time in figuring out the work that needed to be done and the pinning, everyone that I encountered was professional, confident , calming and kind!! They fixed my dress and it fit like a glove and was done for me on time!!! I would highly recommend this store for all your tailoring needs!! I will be back! read more
