Came for an alteration and I rang the doorbell. She didn't answer and when I called her, she picked…read moreup and told me to reschedule and I ended up just getting a different seamstress because I was so put off by her attitude. When I posted a review on Google Maps she replied me what a horrible person I was. (And I noticed she had the same reaction with customers with a similiar experience.) While she does have a lot of 5 star reviews, make sure you check the one stars. Horrible communication and even worse costumer relations.

I did not have anything tailored by Taryn, but I did call for an estimate. This review is not a…read morereflection of the quality of tailoring, but the quality of service. Taryn was very short, unprofessional, and unhelpful over the phone. I have never had anything professionally tailored before, so this was a new experience for me and I have no frame of reference. While describing the alterations I was looking for, she was distracted, cursed under her breath, and said something about a dog(?). She asked when I would need it by, and--okay, I recognize that I was asking too much by needing it in less than a week, but it's something relatively simple that I was considering doing myself (which I will clearly be doing now) and she didn't even let me get out an apology before hanging up. I know it's an additional ask, but I would've really appreciated a rough estimate for the service regardless, and especially an explanation of how much time services like this tend to take, so I could know for the future. I have another garment I was hoping to have tailored for a later event, but given this experience, I will certainly be looking elsewhere for that service.

Her modest shop hides the many years of wonderful craftsmanship & pride she takes in her trade. I have worked with several other Tailors in the community before finally making Erin my permanent GO TO. She understands the dynamics of all different body types (accentuating the +'s) and the architecture of numerous fibers/materials to compliment each individuals shape & personal aesthetic. It truly is a skill Erina does not lack. My continued respect & gratitude will never be able to exceed Erina's talent & ability to make you look & feel awesome!

I needed a bridesmaids dress that I had ordered online altered. Irina was able to get it done…read morewithin just a few weeks and was ready on the date that we had a greed on! Irina is not necessarily the chattiest of people, but I don't think English is her first language, so it's important to be considerate of that when going in to her shop. Also, I was able to get in without making an appointment and within in hour of her shop closing, which she was very accommodating of!! The one thing I will say is that her work can be a little expensive depending on what you need done, but it's worth it for the outcome of the garment and considering she is a small business that does all of the work herself. I would highly recommend!!

Please note, this review was started a few months ago and finally completed today…read more This shop is small and dated but relatively clean. There are no signs for prices listed anywhere in the shop. Basically, you bring it in and she takes a look at it and gives you a price which should've been a red flag. I was pleased with my initial visit. I had a pair of slacks from Macy's shortened for about 12 dollars plus tax. I was happy with the work. Several months later, I brought another pair of my slacks purchased from Express, a pair of my husband's slacks (Mens Wearhouse) that were ripped and a blazer for him. The initial consultation price for my slacks were agreeable. I wanted to shorten the slacks again as I am petite. I also wanted the legs to be brought in (tapered) so that it would be more fitted. The pricing to repair my husband's slacks was also agreeable. All was good until she told me the price for shortening the sleeves on my husband's blazer. She told me that since we were Hmong like her, she would give me a "Hmong" discount. Instead of the normal price for shortening the sleeve of a blazer, it would be about 40-45 bucks with the "Hmong" discount. We thought it was ludicrous but since we wanted to get our clothes altered asap, we decided to just go ahead with it. When I picked it up about a week or two later, I took a quick look at the items before taking them and leaving. At home, upon closer inspection and after wearing my slacks, I noticed that only the back part of the thigh was altered. The excess fabric was not removed and left the back of the thigh area looking unnatural and bulky. The legs was not tapered. The pant's hem was also not done properly as well. Instead of cutting excess fabric off, she left the excess fabric.. leaving roughly 2 and a half inch at the bottom. It was way too wide. I had to undo it myself and cut the excess fabric off. My husband's slacks were fine for a couple months and just ripped again recently. I looked at the blazer and noticed right away that the work was pretty shoddy. The buttons on the sleeve of the blazer were also stacked upon each other.. seeming as if she didn't take too much time or effort into it. It was not worth 40-45 dollars (Hmong discount)! I brought my slacks back to her to fix several weeks later as I had gone out of town. Michelle refused to fix my slacks, wanting to charge me more to unhem my slacks and then charge me for doing work she had initially agreed upon (taper). So I said forget it. The sleeve on my husband's blazer was terribly sewn, so I asked her to reinforce it. The buttons on the sleeve were stacked on top of each other as well. So I asked her to remove them and space them out properly. Initially she claimed that that was how the buttons on the blazer were. I had to point out that she had to shorten the sleeves and it was her who stacked the buttons on top of each other. End note, I refuse to go here again. Like the previous reviewer mentioned, she does not follow directions. I did take a look at my initial pair of slacks when I asked her to shorten it, the sides are coming loose. Really?

I found out about Beauty By Design from the bridal salon I bought my wedding dress at. I was really…read morehappy that I was able to get in pretty quickly to start getting my dress tailored, because a lot of the other places I reached out to were booked through the end of the year, and my wedding is in September. Deborah has been amazing to work with. I really appreciate the time she put into my first appointment to suggest what needed to be changed and altered. She is also awesome for letting me bring my second dress, for my bridal shower, in as well to get altered. The alterations made to both dresses were fantastic and just what I asked for, and then some. I would highly recommend using Beauty By Design for your tailoring needs!

She also did an amazing job pressing my dress before the wedding. I traveled over 13 hours with my dress to Colorado, and when I unpacked it, I didn't have to steam it at all. It looked absolutely beautiful and was ready to wear, which took away so much stress leading up to the wedding. She was incredibly kind, flexible with scheduling, and such a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Her pricing was very fair, and it's clear she is a hardworking, talented seamstress who truly cares about her clients. She helped me feel so confident and beautiful on my wedding day.
