    Uneven edge on hemmed jeans.
    Brian Q.

    I wanted to be able to give this place 5-stars because the 73-yr old Korean lady here is so nice and friendly. And I feel bad that she is still working at her age. But I would say the quality of work was just okay. The bottom edge of one of the legs on the jeans I had hemmed are uneven by a good quarter inch and the stitching is a bit wavy. I didn't bother to try to have them fix it since I don't have time to drive back and forth. There are at least two women working here so perhaps the workmanship varies depending on who does the work because other photos I saw on Yelp showed much better quality stitching. Cash only and they didn't even provide me any kind of receipt so I'm not sure you can bring stuff back if you find a problem. Prices are $5 for hemming or $10 for the original hem, plus tax.

    Fixed the length and left the small train. Changed elastic in the waist and fixed the two holes.

    Kim definitely gets 5 stars from me! I brought a beautiful gown in for a little length to be taken off, new elastic in the waist and two holes to be fixed. It was done in only 2 days and it's perfect. Also, great prices! She's a hidden gem and has been doing this for a long time. I'm super picky and definitely will be coming here for all of my alterations. Thanks Kim!

    Highly recommended

    Great gem... Had my two Tory Burch jeans hem for $10.00.... All I have to say not what I expected. She did a great job. Whe I dropped them off on Monday was ready by Thursday. She truly is busy. A gentlemen brought in 6 suites to have altered right behind me. I really thought she was just going to see it up. And she even pressed my jeans for me. I would highly recommend her. My girlfriend has her clothes alterations done in West Village and she said she paid 20.00/pant for hemming. Thanks my yelper friends!

    Great customer service & good quality work. Last time I…read morewalked into their shop, I brought in a garment that needed a simple stitch repair along with a pair of pants which needed the length brought up. I handed the woman my repair alteration before stepping into the fitting room to put the pants on so they could mark them. I fully expected to leave the repair alteration with them for a few days along with the pants, but I was pleasantly surprised when I stepped back out of the fitting room area because the woman handed me back my garment with the stitch repair completed & did not charge me for it. I've also had more complicated alterations done to a wool coat & trust them with my garments. I also appreciate their follow up to make sure that their tailoring was done to my satisfaction after I've taken them home.

    **UPDATE** After…read morethis review posted, Red Carpet Tailor reached out to me which WAS NOT expected! He was so kind and took the time to hear me out. Let me tell you something, A LOT of the time, business owners/managers see reviews and NEVER respond to them. This reach out speaks VOLUMES to the integrity of this business. That means alot to me! The next time I need an alteration, I WILL give Red Carpet Tailor ago! I walked into Red Carpet Tailor on Douglas Monday morning needing a simple side slit extension. The lady behind the counter was very nice. However, I am very shocked at the price tag for this alteration. Literally, extending an already existing slit in a Chef coat by 3" on each side should not cost $50.16! I could understand if I was needing same day service, but I asked to pick it up in 4 days. To add insult to injury, the coat wasn't even steamed for the price paid. Disappointed
