Details: When I arrived, I was pleased to find a spacious parking lot in back with the back door clearly marked. I was impressed by the soft fabric feel to the interior, with nice rugs over a light wood floor. There were several changing rooms with curtains and benches/chairs. I was greeted as soon as I entered and after going through what needed to be done, I was told how much it would cost, which was written down for me. I thought the price seemed fair for what was being done - $40 total for the two pants and the button.

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.

My daughter fell in love with a dress on TikTok that she really wanted to have made for her bat…read moremitzvah. I asked around for the best seamstress to make a bat mitzvah dress and made an appointment with someone else. Days before our first appointment I started hearing stories about girls dresses falling apart that was made by this other seamstress. I got nervous and asked around once again and Mimika came highly recommended. I called Mimika and felt really confident with I had chosen the right seamstress by the questions she was asking me about my daughter and the dress. We got to know Mimika and her team pretty well during the dress making process since there were a bunch of fittings and she ended up altering the rest of the familys clothing for the big weekend. She is absolutely lovely. She also may be the busiest seamstress in town with the # of people coming in and out of her office for fittings, but she always made her deadlines. The dress she made was even prettier than the tiktok original. She also took the material from the dress and added it to a pair of white Jordan's, which completed the look. My daughter was thrilled. I was also thrilled with a dress she altered for me. I had trouble finding a dress to wear for the occasion and finally found one i liked, but not loved. However, after Mimika altered it I loved it and it was just perfect for the occasion. Two weeks before my daughter's bat mitzvah she had a little freakout that the high low dress she had chosen was going to rip in the mosh pit. She asked if we could shorten it and I called Mimika in a panic. She assured me there was no way this dress could rip, but said she would shorten it if that's what my daughter really wanted. I trusted that it wouldn't rip and she was right; the dress held up perfectly all night long (and there was a lot of moshing :)). I've already decided that Mimika will make my dress for my son's bar mitzvah in 2 years after seeing her amazing work. She told me to call her 6 months ahead of time to leave plenty of time. It's in the calendar, but look forward to visiting her for alterations before then.

I had made arrangements to pick up 2 dresses for alterations and they forgot them at home. They said they would go back home to get them, but I decided to give them more time and pick it up the following week. After I brought the dresses home, I saw that they forgot to alter one of the sides of a dress - it still had the pins in it. Mimi was apologetic, but my husband had to go drop it off again and then pick it up the next day. When I got the dress back - I noticed that there were numerous pulls in the fabric of the dress along the side that had to be quickly altered. I did not even bother to call her to tell her about it. I will definitely not be going back. Their alterations are good - not great. If you are looking for simple hemming or alterations - I think they would be acceptable. Anything other than that - do not go here. Also - Make sure to remind them about your confirmed pick up times/dates. VERY IMPORTANT. I was truly hoping that they would be terrific since they appeared to be warm and friendly. Very disappointed.

Before we left my daughter said goodbye to everyone and to have a great day. No one replied. We didn't want to cause a scene, so my daughter immediately called and spoke with the owner herself. It is funny for someone who has been a business owner for over 60 years should know basic customer service. She kept saying "I was not there, I was not there". I needed to leave a review regardless on BOTH yelp and google even though my daughter spoke to the owner. Just don't waste your time going here.. rude people and not that great of a selection.
