Voula is such a sweet woman. She did my alteration in a special for me and it is PERFECT! Perfect length & the alteration on the clips in the back of my dress to make it sit tighter was entirely unnoticeable!

I'm so lucky she is so close to my house and does it for such a reasonable price. So sorry it took me so long to write a review! But you should definitely give this lady your business read more

Do not come here unless you have months before a wedding. I dropped my bridesmaid dress off 3 weeks before the wedding. I came back for my 2nd fitting. From the first appointment, I was given a date for when it would be ready which was the day before I flew out. I picked up my dress, and I noticed that there's still makeup on my dress from the fittings. I ask if she had it dry cleaned, she said no because she's been too busy. She could have told me this prior or even earlier that morning so I could have tried to get it done somewhere else. I picked up my dress at 3pm where it still wasn't even ready. She left the sews open in case I needed additional alterations. I was expecting to just pick it up and go. There was another woman there who had to wait for her daughter's bridesmaid dress who has driven over an hour earlier that day that was also not ready. She had a drive to Wisconsin later that day. Voula is nice and everything but she works alone, and is taking business when she is too busy to meet deadlines. Don't come here if you're expecting good service, you won't get it. My flight is at 7AM and because my pickup was so late in the day without her letting me know about it not being cleaned despite knowing the wedding date, I'm still unsure of what to do. This wasn't a good experience to say the least. read more

Voula is INCREDIBLE. I brought two wedding gowns to her and she worked her magic making them perfect for my wedding. She made me feel so comfortable and was attentive to my vision. She has fair pricing and is such a sweet and kind person. I've had several dresses altered over the years at various Chicagoland tailors but from now on will always take my business to Voula. Thank you, Voula! read more

I have never needed alterations before, so I checked Yelp for assistance. Voula's location was nearby and had wonderful reviews, so I called to make an appointment. Voula was able to schedule me the same day for a fitting and consultation for a Bridesmaid dress that I needed altered. Voula was super sweet, responsive, and amazing at what she does. She made me feel very confident at the consultation that she would do a great job in a short amount of time, and I'm glad I trusted her because she did. Trust her with your alteration needs! I'll definitely be bringing more business to Voula. read more

Voula is the absolute best! She altered my daughter's bridesmaid dress perfectly and then one week before my niece's wedding I bought another gown (just didn't love my original purchase) and Voula agreed to alter my gown too!!! Both gowns were stunning on the day of the wedding and we received so many compliments! Voula was kind and caring with the perfect little shop! The whole experience somehow felt nostalgic. All COVID protocols were followed and she was just honestly so talented! I wish I had a reason to buy more gowns just to visit. read more

Very professional last minute prom dress altered and she did a amazing job definitely recommend Voula's

I first went to Voula to get my 30th birthday outfit tailored. She did an amazing job so I returned to get a $200 David's Bridal Dress altered. David's Bridal couldn't tailor the dress the way I needed so I needed someone with expertise. Not only did Voula deliver but she was creative and went above and beyond. I recommended my sister to go to her and get her maid of honor dress tailored by her and she did and her dress came out great. She is friendly, reasonably priced and I will always go to her for my tailoring needs. read more

Voula did the alterations for my wedding dress and I could not be happier! She was very affordable and a super sweet person. On my wedding day, the dress was absolutely perfect. It fit me great, the train looked beautiful and I was able to sit down! After we took our wedding photos, my maid of honor accidentally broke 2 of the loops for the buttons on the bustle, but it didn't even make a difference. It still looked beautiful and the train was bunched up nicely. I was still able to dance the night away with my new husband. I would highly recommend going to Voula for your alterations! read more

Voula is the sweetest and very accommodating. I went to her to have a dress fitted on a Monday and she had it done for me by Thursday so I could wear it that weekend! She is friendly and her pricing is extremely reasonable. My husband also has used her for pants and business shirts to be tailored and dry cleaned. So happy she moved into the neighborhood. I would recommend Voula for your local seamstress and dry cleaner. read more

I had a dress altered for a formal wedding, and she did a beautiful job! The dress needed to be hemmed as well - it had several layers of flowing fabric. Voula was amazing in pinning the hem just right so I wouldn't lose the beautiful flow the dress had once it was hemmed. Plan to have her "remake" the top part of another dress that I have and also bring some of the kids clothes in. She is very talented, whether it's a simple hem or something intricate! read more

I took my dress in to get altered and too much was taken off. Then I was told that I gained weight and that's why it was too tight. No. She clearly didn't measure right. It was tight in the ribs and chest area. After getting it fixed, I find a stain on the front of my dress because she did something steaming it! She claims it was there when I got this dress brand new. The best part is that I was told it's not noticeable and I'll spill a drink or food anyways. No.. I don't eat like a slob. The chest is still to big in front so I have to pay to get this fixed somewhere else. Don't let the 5 star reviews fool you. read more

Voula did my sisters wedding dress as well as all her bridesmaids. (Doing this review on her behalf.) Voula recently moved from Touhy and Harlem south to Harlem and Higgens (about 8 blocks west of Harlem.) I wanted to write this review because she did such a wonderful job doing all the alterations. Her specialty is anything Bridal as well as special event dresses. Give her a call for your next wedding - special event. You will not be disappointed! read more
