Had a bridesmaid dress taken in from a size 6 to a 2! Turn around time was quick and Susan did amazing work. Pricing is fair and clear using the website calculator. Working with Susan was like working with a friend; she’s gonna make sure you look your best and tell you if an alteration isn’t necessary/suggest some diy fixes.
My only advice is make sure you can take a big deep breath in whatever is being taken in when she’s measuring and putting pins in. My waist was a little too snatched at times. BUT I guess that’s the price I pay for taking others’ breaths away that day.

I had a dress that was tight in the waist. I would not take it to just anyone so I tried Susan. When I say “she did that”, she did. The dress is beautiful. I had a dress that I ordered from Ralph Lauren that was sleeveless and I wanted sleeves so I wouldn’t need a jacket. I am short so she cut the extra material from the bottom and made me sleeves. Love it. I am particular about my clothes and wanted someone to take care of them. I highly recommend Susan. Linda
