Connie made quick alterations for me in the few weeks right before my wedding. I didn't need much work done, but had a lot of issues with sizing for my dress which was made elsewhere in Orange County. So I was a bit anxious to get my dress to fit in time for my wedding and I didn't want to deal with driving up and down from OC again. I found Connie through Yelp and decided to trust her. She quickly made the alterations, was prompt in communications, which was so important for me since my wedding was literally under a month, and got the dress to fit beautifully. Pricing was fair too. She was very patient and kind. Highly recommend!

Really great work and prompt turnaround. Her shop is filled with her individual creations but she will also tailor and alter clothes from other places. I had a dress with a lot of beading and design that needed a zipper put into the side and she was really fast about it.

I came here for my wedding dress alteration based on my friend's recommendation. Connie is such a nice and lovely human being! So patient and listened to all my concerns. I had multiple fittings because my dress was a bit complicated, and Connie did a great job in delivering! I would definitely recommend this place for all your wedding dress alterations!

Had an amazing experience with Connie for my wedding dress alterations. She was so friendly and supportive of my vision for how I wanted my dress changed. It takes soft and technical skills to listen to the customer and then execute a great final product and this is exactly what she did. There were no surprises with any pricing or services! Dress alterations can be stressful, but I felt very comfortable with Connie. It was overall an ideal experience that I would recommend to any bride.

Connie is great!!!I have a mini (bridal) dress from Katherine Tash that’s too loose around my bust and it bothered me to no end. I previously took it to another tailor who added cups and it was still gigantic around my bust. I then took the dress to Connie and she has magic hands! Not only did she quote me a super reasonable price, but also she turned the dress around in three days!! I am so happy with how my dress fits now.If I want to be extremely nit-picky, the stitching could be a little neater. However, no one is going to flip your dress inside out to check those details, nor do I think it matters at the end of the day (I am purely mentioning it in case others care). For me personally, the dress fits like a glove, the price is right, the turnaround is fast, and that’s a 12/10 in my book!It’s also worth mentioning that I found Connie via my friend who took her $10k+ super expensive Galia Lahav gown to Connie. Her dress was at least one or two sizes too small (uh I can go on and on about Galia Lahav horror stories), and Connie made her dress look like it’s custom made!! I saw my friend’s wedding photos and was super impressed by how well the dress fit her, and that’s why I reached out to ask who her tailor was.

Loved my experience here for alterations on my wedding dress. Reasonable pricing, kind, helpful and great work. Had several fittings to get my dress just right. Would send everyone here.

Connie is just the best! She is very skilled and will walk you through what the fabric and seams are capable of. I found a wedding dress that I really liked, but she turned it into something that I loved! The top was great, but the bottom skirt was a bit too billowy for me. She slimmed up the skirt and made it my dream dress! She is very patient and will go stepwise so that you aren't making huge changes that aren't right for the dress. I cannot recommend her enough!

Connie made alterations on my wedding dress. She listened to my concerns and gave great recommendations on the necessary alterations based on the style of my dress and body type. She was always so personable and easy to chat with. All my appointments were very efficient and I only needed a couple of fittings. Thanks to Connie, I felt comfortable and great in my dress!

Simply the best!!! I had two wedding dresses that needed an overhaul - from taking them in, to shortening the hem, to adding pockets - and Connie did everything perfectly. Truly - she was a magician. She's also extremely nice and personable, and reasonably priced. Also, as a queer fat person, I felt completely comfortable here, and comfortable to be myself unapologetically. Absolutely loved my dresses and definitely recommend to everyone!

Connie was AMAZING to work with! I wanted to update my mom's wedding dress to wear for my own wedding - she was the perfect blend of listening to what I wanted and offering suggestions. She made the entire process so special for both me and my mom. Highly recommend! ?

I don't usually write reviews, but Connie was the most professional, understanding, and sweet person I've ever met. I had the pleasure of having Connie make my dress for Prom. I had a few additional requests the day BEFORE, and she was super understanding and took me in and did it. I went to 2 proms, and when the dress got a little messed up after the first (was my fault), she allowed me to come back so she can sew some of the beads back on. Through all of this, she never got mad or upset. She remained super professional and sweet. Not to mention, she created the most beautiful dress I've ever seen. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get a dress made!

I could not be any happier with the dress and shawl she made for me from my grandmother's kimono and obi. Exquisite workmanship, efficient, it was such a good experience working with her! I will definitely be returning for more dresses!
