    A cocktail gown Linda altered for me
    Nora G.

    I brought two cocktail gowns to Linda in anticipation of some events my boyfriend and I had coming up. Not only did she do a beautiful job, I found her easy to talk to and get along with. Wonderful work!

    Linda was easy to work with, fast and priced fair. She altered three different items and now they all fit great...

    Linda's work was as professional as it gets. The hem on my suit pants looked better than the original. I'll be using her services again

    I called Laurie hoping she may be able to help me with a same-day alteration for a wedding dress…read more(bustle) for my best friend. She answered when I called and shared that she was swamped but provided us some great tips on how to do it on our own. My friend had been researching but Laurie shared the best tips. It was exactly what we needed without it being done professionally. If I ever need alterations again, Laurie will be my first call (and referral). Thank you, Laurie!

    If I could give her zero stars then I would. It will not let me upload in order so they are…read morenumbered. This might be the worst customer service and just service in general that I have ever received. The bride and I both brought our dresses to Laurie. She seemed so sweet. She tells you she can do things that she is clearly not qualified for. Says she has a background in costuming for theatre, which tugs at my heart strings as my oldest has been in theatre for forever. The screenshots tell you all that you need to know so I will be brief. In January the wedding dress was dropped off. She ripped out the back of the brides dress saying she could do everything the bride asked for. Then said the dress was ready for pick up (Aug 2 well passed when a bride should have their dress back from alterations) but when we showed up all the pins were still in it. It hadn't even been hemmed. The back (and butt) were ripped out and a piece of transparent lace was sewn in its place, crooked and bunched in areas. No way to fasten the dress. She had removed the boning. The bride text her after we left asking her to please stop working on the dress and she would come back and pick up. Laurie decided to "put the dress back together" then charge the bride for alterations she didn't do. My dress was supposed to be ready by Aug 1 at the latest (I'm the MOH) I showed up to pick it up and she had only taken in one side of the dress and sewn the seam backwards...it even had pockets and now one was facing backwards! The straps were so short that I could barely get my arms through, and so much more was wrong with it that the list is just too long. She swore she'd fix it and it would be done in a day or two. Nope. She just kept putting me off. I finally text just telling her that I need my dress back. I'm at the point where I've purchased another dress because I had no idea if she would finish it. I no longer have time to get the bride's approval on my dress. The wedding is in 4 days. No apology. No accountability. No compassion. And she's still charging full price for services that she didn't do as agreed upon. Now she says she will be selling our dresses. This woman is not a seamstress. She's a scam artist.
