    I absolutely love this place! Elvira is my go-to tailor--always kind, funny, and such a joy to see…read more Her work is amazing; she can truly do magic with clothes! I definitely recommend this place!!

    From the very first five minutes in this shop, I should have walked out the door. The atmosphere…read morewas chaotic and uncomfortable. She was rude to the customer before me, then snapped at a young boy who came in to pick up an item for his mother, telling him she had "lost it" and to come back another time. When it was my turn, I put on my dress and she immediately refused to listen to me and my family about how the dress needed to be put on in order to be buttoned. She insisted she knew best, so we followed her instructions. When she couldn't get it buttoned, she looked at me and said word for word: "you must have gained 20 pounds since you last tried on this dress. I can't do anything to it. Your only option is to get a new dress or a bigger size." I cannot even describe the emotional turmoil that caused me. With only four months before my wedding, I panicked and purchased a bigger size dress. When it arrived, she then told me it was too big and refused to do any alterations on it to make it smaller. I won't go into the further weight related insults she said to me, because they are still extremely triggering, but I will say this: no one deserves to be body shamed ever and especially not while preparing for a wedding. This experience was one of the lowest points in my planning process. Thankfully, I found a wonderful seamstress in Wayland 2 weeks before my wedding, who treated me with kindness, made the dress fit perfectly, and gave me back the confidence I had lost. Please, if you are considering going here, do your research and look at the negative reviews she already has. I truly wish I had. She is one of the meanest and most unprofessional people I have ever encountered, and I wouldn't want any other bride to go through what I did

    Mrs. Hoi does great work for a fair price. She will tell you if the cost of fixing something will…read morebe greater than the cost of replacing it, which is very useful (although sometimes I still get things fixed). She has replaced zips and snaps, taken clothes in and let them out, and pretty much remade a dress for me--so everything from very simple to very complex. All great work and very much worth the price. I see some folks here complaining about cost, when they clearly don't understand the amount of work involved in doing what they're asking for. If you have any reservations, just ask for the price up front.

    I brought my daughter's graduation dress to Hoi's Tailor Shop. All she needed was a minor 2" hem …read more It was three thin layers, but was done on the machine. I didn't ask upfront the cost, because I've had friends recommended them, so I trusted it would be fair. I was thinking at the worst possible scenario it would cost $100 for the job. They charged me $220 for a hem!!!! When I questioned them, they were belligerent defending their work. When I told them a friend got the same dress completely redone, pulled apart and put back together plus a hem for $140, which we thought was ridiculous. The woman at the shop likened it to shopping at Roche Bros. rather than Market Basket. I'd steer clear of Hoi's Tailor Shop. I was robbed. They didn't even try to be nice about it. Completely defensive. I should've done it myself. I like local businesses, but this totally backfired.
