This review is for the tailoring shop inside Battison's of South Windsor. Per their website, their…read moretailors are independent contractors and thus are technically separate from the laundromat itself, hence why this review is not that particular location's Yelp page. I recently purchased a formal dress from David's Bridal to wear for two upcoming weddings plus various other fancy events that may pop up in the future. The dress needed some serious work: the back needed to be taken in quite a bit, as did the sleeves around the shoulders. Alterations at David's Bridal are CRAZY expensive (a friend told me that's how they rope in most of their money), so there was no way I was getting it done there. This is the only place near me that offers tailoring that I know of, so I brought my dress here and just hoped beyond hope the alterations wouldn't cost a fortune; almost the entire top of the dress is lace. The tailor (I never got his name; I know, shameful!) had me put on the dress and put me in front of the mirror to see what needed work. He only put one bobby pin in the dress and only seemed to measure one side; it worried me, but he seemed to know what he was doing, so I mustered up enough trust to leave me dress in his hands (pun totally intended). Five days later, I went in to pick it up. The gentleman recognized me immediately, smiled, grabbed my dress, told me to wait, and disappeared into the back of the place. He returned five minutes later with my dress perfectly pressed. The alterations plus the press only cost me $25, far, far less than what David's Bridal would charge. Later on at home, I put on the dress, and WOW. The alterations were absolutely perfect. My dress-which used to hang on my shoulders and back-now fit like a glove. A family member then told me they had had work done by him years ago; he's been in the business forever and knows his stuff. That clearly showed. If you need tailoring that's not super expensive, stop by here if you can. You won't regret it.
