Meryem asked my daughter what she was thinking and listened to her wishes. Meryem gave her suggestions - and explained why! YAY!! The dress came out perfectly and my daughter received so many compliments. We easily scheduled the appointments for both the first and second fittings. You will receive one-to-one service since it is a small shop with a personal touch. The value of the work is beyond reasonable. Meryem's talent is beyond explanation. I would recommend Meryem at Tata's Distinctive Tailoring to anyone looking for a personalized, talented, and skilled seamstress.

I had the most amazing experience going to Meryem for my wedding gown alterations. I bought my…read moredress off the rack only 2 months before my wedding, and I went to see Meryem to shorten the straps, tighten the top, and add a bustle. Less than a month before the wedding, I decided I'd really like sleeves. Meryem told me if I bring her the fabric, she will make them for me. I brought in the fabric and an inspiration picture and I am absolutely amazed with the results. Not only did my dress fit perfectly, it was a one of a kind piece of art. Even better than the inspiration picture. Meryem is so talented, and very considerate of making sure it's done with extra time to spare before the event. This is the best place to go for your tailoring and alteration needs.

I was looking for a tailor to alter a gown for a formal birthday party in August. I saw Ms.andrea…read moreshop in buckland Mall, but it was closed. Located her phone number, found she was in West farms Mall, until her relocation to Newington. Quickly took my gown into her shoppe. Wonderful experience, Ms.andrea is a very knowledgeable seamstress/tailor. My gown needed inches trimmed from the bottom, and a piece placed in the bosom area. She also took it up in the shoulders so it would hang correctly. Ms. Andrea did a remarkable job. The gown looked as if it were purchased to fit, the added piece gave it a more modest look. Thank you Ms. Andrea. I have a few more gowns to have altered. Very easy to locate in Newington.

I brought 2 dresses in on 9/16 for an upcoming wedding. One needed to be hemmed the other needed about a 10 inch long straight line sewn to prevent a wardrobe malfunction in a halter style top. I was told that both garments would be ready on 9/30 and that it would cost $60. Okay. I arrive on 9/30 in the morning. Jennifer looks at me asks if I am here to pick up the 2 dresses. I reply that I am. She keeps telling me that she is sorry but they aren't done, she keeps showing me a bridesmaid dress that she is working on and complains that she has too many weddings to sew for and asks me to come back later that day at 1 PM to pick up my dresses. I inform her that I can't due to previous commitments and mentioned that I don't want her rushing because I want a nice job done. Jennifer tells me to come back on Tuesday and assures me they will be ready. I agree and tell Jennifer that I will be there early Tuesday morning. Tuesday morning arrives, I go there for 9:30 AM. The hours on the door state it is supposed to open at 9AM. It is closed. No signs of life whatsoever. I call the phone number to try to find out what is going on. No answer, answering machine, just nothing. As I am calling, an elderly gentleman arrived trying to pick up his garments. He just shrugged his shoulders, rolled his eyes and walked off. I went to do some shopping in the area figuring that perhaps she was running late. After completing my shopping, I returned at 11:15 AM to try to get the dresses. Still no signs of life and nobody answering the phone. After running more errands, I call at 12:30 PM to see if Jennifer has arrived. She finally picks up. I ask if she is at the shop. She explains that she had some problems this morning but she is now there and will be there until 4 PM. I tell her I'll be right down to get my dresses. I arrive at 1PM. I look at the counter and my dress is in a pile, with a bunch of pins in it and scissors next to it. My daughters dress is hanging nearby, pins in it. Obviously not completed. She sees me and starts apologizing, telling me they will be ready in a couple of hours or maybe I could come back tomorrow??? I told her that I was extremely frustrated because this was my 4th trip to try to get my clothes. Jennifer corrected me and says you mean second. I give her the rundown of my 4 attempts to get the dresses. Jennifer then explains to me that she got stuck at Kohl's. They had some really great sales and she starts to show me some of her great finds. She says sorry again and then let's out a burp. I explained that I was very upset because I needed to get the garments today since my schedule for the rest of the week is booked up and now she would in fact be doing the rush job that I didn't want three days prior. Jennifer says to come back in 2 hours. It will be fine. She isn't rushing. I agree because she has my dress, in a pile, pinned and who else am I going to get this late in the game? I come with my daughter so we can make sure everything is set before we go. My daughter tries on her dress. Jennifer had only sewn a 1 inch line in the middle of the area that needed to be sewn which left 2 weird looking pockets. I look at the hem on my dress. The stitching and cutting is janky at best. Jennifer hand stitches the rest of the 10 inch line that we originally needed to prevent the wardrobe malfunction. My daughter tries the dress on again. It will do. I ask how much I owe. Jennifer informs me that she will only charge me $50. I pay, take my dresses and go. Although I appreciate that she made an attempt at making things right with the discount; I feel it was too little, too late. Customers shouldn't feel as if their time is of no value. I haven't been that angry, irked, annoyed, disappointed in years. If I were a cartoon character I'm sure steam would have come out of my ears especially when she burped at me. I am attaching photos of the stitching so you can see what I mean about the shoddy work.
