I brought my karate uniforms to Emily for hemming, and needless to say, they were flawless! Excellent service, responsiveness, quality, etc! I highly recommend this business, and remember to support local!

Incredibly talented, friendly and goes above and beyond! She can take any type of clothing and alter them to your liking. A very skilled and professional seamstress. We are lucky to have her in Portland.

I took my daughter to Emily for her prom coming up and let me just say I couldn't have found someone better for the job at hand. I had no idea where to go when it came to helping my daughter out and one of the parents at school recommended Emily’s services. She made my little girl feel so special and the dress looks amazing. Thanks again! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for alterations. Professional, skilled, and hard working. That shop has dresses everywhere!

Not impressed. I was excited about having a few casual pieces of clothing altered (nothing too complicated) and read really good reviews about this shop so wanted to give it a go. First while I don't doubt she does good work, it appeared to me she didn't really care to have my business. She seemed stressed and busy and I did not feel like a valued customer so I just left without her service.
When I contacted her originally, I had wanted to make an appointment but I guess she does not set appointments unless you need formal wear done but she told me to come on certain days around 5:30PM. I told her then that I was going to try to make it that next Tuesday but I would contact her again to let her know I would be coming. Which I did. Never received a follow up but I went anyways. Apparently she did respond to my text but I was already in my car driving to her shop after work so I never saw it.
I walked in and she just looked pretty unhappy to see me show up. Again I am sure it was because she is so busy? Anyway, that should be a good thing being a person like her in her position! She told me she had an appointment at 5:30 but she would try to fit me in. I was a little annoyed because she would not give me my own appointment before. She looked at my clothes items that I was holding and kind of asked " are you going to need those all tried on too"? I said yes I would and that seemed to further her frustration. I was asked to wait in the hall while she would try to work me in. I was going to, then just walked out.
I did not feel overly welcome or that she wanted my business. Quite frankly, she was quite rude. Plus if I did stay, I felt she would be totally rushing me through my fitting and I would not get the attention I wanted on my clothes. While they may not have been formal wear for her these clothes still cost me a lot of money. I'll take my business elsewhere.

Emily is AMAZING. She altered a bridesmaid dress once before so I went back, now that I am a bridesmaid in another wedding coming up. The dress purchase was last minute and not only did Emily provide a quick turnaround time, but she even was able to sew in bra cups so I don’t have to suffer through a strapless one for the event. Always incredible attention to detail and fairly priced. If you need something altered and tailored to make you feel supported and beautiful, Emily is your girl!!

Emily was amazing!! So hard to trust someone with your wedding dress, but from the very first appt she made me feel comfortable! She was willing to schedule appts around my schedule and you can’t beat her pricing! She did great, timely work and was very friendly throughout the whole process! I altered pretty much every part of my dress and it turned out perfect- down to the last detail! Highly recommend!!Service: Wedding gown alterations

Emily at Lolita Alters could not be more wonderful!! She was so patient and meticulous and made my wedding dress absolutely flawless! She also altered three dresses for people in my wedding party and NAILED theirs as well, even making a perfectly-fitting maternity dress out of a too-tight non-maternity bridesmaid dress. She is so talented. I couldn't recommend her more!
