Linda was fabulous, and she did excellent alterations to my wedding dress. She's very professional, affordable, and delivered a fast turnaround. I will be recommending her to anyone needing the same work done. Thanks Linda!

I needed my bridesmaid dress altered. I didn’t know anyone in the area so went online and found Linda. She was awesome! Replied right away. Very responsive. Got me in very promptly and finished with my dress so quickly. Everything went so smoothly. The dress turned out great! Her expertise and knowledge was very much appreciated. I will refer her to my family and friends if they need anything done and I will go back to her for any other alterations I may need! Price was very reasonable as well.

I highly recommend Linda for all of your bridal alteration needs! She is extremely skilled and experienced, has a great eye, is a creative problem solver, and is truly a pleasure to work with. She is responsive and accommodated my crazy work schedule and short timeline. She is also very reasonably price and more than fair. She shortened my crepe & lace & tulle dress (removing/replacing lace appliqués), added a bustle, created lace straps and a way to support my breasts (true problem solving!), took in the sides and took in the back of my lace illusion top!! I’m thrilled with the outcome and now I’m just bummed that I won’t get to visit her every few weeks! 🤣🤣 Thanks Linda! I’ll just have to find some more dresses to alter!

Linda was excellent - I highly recommend her! It was easy to schedule with her, my wedding dress looked amazing after I was done (just how I asked it to be), and she finished with the alterations very quickly! She worked with me on the price and fit, and was very responsive throughout the entire process. If you are looking for a tailor in the Raleigh/Durhman area, she is the one!

I had ordered a dress for my universities formal, it was one size too big, had long sleeves, and needed almost complete reconstruction on the top. I gave her a picture of what I wanted the final project to look like and WOW she hit it spot on! I wasn't sure it was even possible, other tailors had turned me away saying it was too much work (and my time frame was 1 week). But she got the job done in a matter of days and the quality of work was by far one of the best tailoring experiences ive had in the NC area.
