After speaking to the seamstress and describing our desires IN DETAIL, she advised she could fix the beading. I also asked to add skin toned mesh to the bust of the dress for modesty.

Seemed strange but we were excited. When we picked up the dress, the beading was never touched at all. The bust was patched with a square piece from the bottom of the dress. The dress still had a slight smell (prior to dropping off the smell was stronger because it was stored for years which is why it needed to be cleaned).

The owner reduced our bill from 87 to 40 but I'm upset that I paid anything being that they ruined the dress, stained it, didn't clean it thoroughly , hemed it incorrectly, added the wrong material to the bust and didn't touch the beading which was the entire point of bring the dress in. We came out WORSE by bringing the dress in than we would have if we didn't bring it at all. I ended up LOSING AND EXTRA 100 dollars after bringing it to another dry cleaner and another seamstress. Not to mention this added weeks of trouble. Thank God I am a planner and started 6 weeks in advance of prom or we'd be out of luck. Things are too expense to pay 2 and 3x for the same service. After telling the story to a few people I realized they had the same issue with the same place. Sorry for the long post but I felt it was my duty to warn others.

No I don't think that's reasonable at all. That's overpriced. It doesn't take much to hem a dress on a sewing machine I would've done it myself if I had a sewing machine. Needless to say she lost me as a customer that day.
