    Lydia made my dress from scratch! The dress was beaded from head to toe, as well as the veil, all by hand.

    I love Lydia. She's so professional and her sewing skills are so remarkable. I have known her for many many years and she's done my prom dresses to my wedding dress. I would love for her to make my daughter's wedding dress one day. I highly recommend her iand I trust her whole heartedly.

    She resized an old suit of mine for $100. It came back great. It saved me a lot of money, and I couldn't be happier.

    I've been coming here for nearly 20 years. Kim usually does decent work but a few recent…read moreexperiences have me questioning her integrity. I've brought in plenty of pants for tapering, shortening, taking in the waist, etc. Last winter I brought in pants that were off the rack and a little long with a 32 length. As usual, I tried them on with shoes and Kim helped measured the length to shorten and I picked them up a week later. Super quick process. I didn't try them on at pickup since I had a lot of work done by her previously so I had no reason to doubt her work. Unfortunately I went 3 months without wearing them but when I did, they were still far too long so I had to bring them in again. I explained the situation and when she examined the pants, she told me it was still the factory stitching so there wasn't any work done by her or any other tailor. I was surprised by that, and that she didn't recognize her own work. I assured her I brought them in just a few months prior. When she remeasured the length, she marked to pants to shorten another 1 1/8 in. She said that she always cuts the length requested by customers and so it was my fault and had to pay again for work on the pants. I have all my pants around 29 inseam so this obviously was not accurate and rather annoying she tried to blame me for the incorrect length since she was the one who previously measured. I needed them done so I went ahead. I didn't want to leave a review about this but the following experience was embarrassing and needed to share. I recommended her shop to a friend who needed to shorten the length of 2 curtains but had a horrible experience. At pickup, Kim casually mentioned that 1 of the curtains were already damaged at drop-off and that she decided to do a free patching for the damage. My friend was not notified of any damage prior to pickup, and furious there wasn't any sort of communication. She couldn't even return the "already damaged" curtains because of Kim's unilateral decision to patch the hole. I felt responsible so I sent my friend $600 to cover the cost of curtains. If there was truly damage already, why wouldn't you inform the customer first to decide options?! This used to be my go to tailor but it's now on my blacklist.

My dress was very loose, and I needed significant alterations--but she made it fit flawlessly. It honestly feels like the dress was custom-made just for me. Every interaction with her, both over text and in person, was such a positive experience. I really appreciated how she offered thoughtful suggestions while still making sure my preferences came first. She made the whole process feel easy and collaborative. If you need alterations for your big day, you can trust Foroogh completely--she will exceed your expectations. Thank you so much, Foroogh!

She worked so hard to make it fit right but when she gave me the quote, I had to be honest and say it wasn't worth it to me because I was only wearing it for half an hour. She didn't get mad, but instead she worked with me to figure out what we could do instead to make it within my budget. After showing me her expertise in knowing what to do to still make it look good, I knew I could trust her with my wedding dress. Things I never considered, she knew and could advise. For example, I honestly thought my wedding dress was good enough, but after her comment about the hip area for my red dress, I knew I just had to have her look at the white dress as well. I didn't even wait for her to finish the red dress before I came back with the white one, but she worked fast! She actually finished it early. She even took the time to help me extra secure the clasps for both dresses. Can't express how much I appreciate her!!! In the pictures below, you can see how my red dress went from poor fit/low quality to wowza!
