I came to the shop on 3 different occasions to handle all alterations, bustle, and final pick up. They accept multiple forms of payment and only service one bride at a time for an intimate experience. Their alterations services came at a premium but their craftsmanship, hospitality, and final steaming services were unmatched. My dress fit me exactly how I had hoped for. The length was perfect, I felt very secure and covered, and my waist was well defined. Aynur was great about thoroughly explaining the three recommended bustle types she recommended. I chose the Bubble Bustle which meant my train was tied up under the dress. She thoroughly explained that my train would attract dirt lines but I loved the way it looked throughout the night! I would definitely recommend Aynur to anyone needing special occasion alterations near Arlington Heights!

The alterations made my dress even better somehow and they were great to work with. Not the place to go on a strict, smaller budget - but they did it correct the first time and it was honestly so perfect. They also hand pressed it with the iron so every layer was perfect, I was so impressed. Their work was quick too - I went there at the end of May and my wedding was the 3rd week of July. Luckily I didn't need anything crazy done - just fitting the corset more to my shape, adding a bustle, etc. All pictures were by Mel Schroeder Photography in the Chicago suburbs.

Nina tailored my wedding dress which was detailed with 3D appliqués and also made me a custom veil…read morewith the appliqués sewed on. I do think she is a skilled tailor but simply does not have the time, energy, or attentiveness to brides for something as special as their wedding wear. I cannot in good faith recommend her to other brides for wedding alterations but think she is better off working in garments that are lower stakes. My biggest complaints are: - She gives you attitude if you push back or have feedback on work she's already done. She is very unwilling to course correct or adjust. - Is not the most respectful of your time. During my bridal appointment, she would allow multiple clients to come in and out during it and other customers would also offer commentary on my dress which I found extremely inappropriate. - Often had to be reminded to do a complete job. Some times the dress wasn't ready or hemmed yet and still had pins which resulted in at least 2 more appointments than necessary. - Lacking attention to detail. I had to clean up a lot of loose ends, fraying, threads, trim excess fabric, remove pencil marks when my final dress was done. I expected better for the price point I paid. - Finally and most egregiously, I asked Nina to sew on appliqué fabric I provided to my veil, both which were custom. She initially sewed the appliqués to the wrong side and said she would correct it by removing and resewing. When I received the final veil, it was beautiful but I noticed that rather than correcting her mistakes, Nina cut the entire veil from the hair comb and resewed it on. I found this to be extremely dishonest and upsetting. She also cut up the fabric I provided and butchered a lot of beautiful details I was hoping to preserve. I found it incredibly misleading of Nina to cut corners and literally cut a perfectly created custom veil rather than owning up and taking the time to correct her mistakes. My dress ended up being fine and wearable ultimately, but it would've been more worth it for me to pay a bit more to have a better experience overall. I do not recommend this business for other brides specifically.

I dropped off three…read morepairs of trousers for alterations and was told they would all be ready by Saturday at 10:00 am. I needed them back that weekend because I was traveling on Sunday, which is why I paid for rush service in the first place. I arrived at 12:30 pm on Saturday and was told they had forgotten about my order, but that they would finish it that day and call me. I waited until 1:45 pm, called the shop and got no answer. Since they close at 2:00 pm, I rushed over and arrived at 2:06. The trousers still weren't ready, and I ended up waiting until 2:30 pm. After all of that, the three pairs weren't even hemmed to the same length. So I paid extra for rush service, didn't get them at the promised time, spent a good part of Saturday chasing the order, and still ended up with inconsistent alterations. Very frustrating experience and not what I expected after paying extra to have the work completed on time.
