Dao helped alter not only my wedding dress, but all of the dresses I wore for wedding related events, as well as my mothers dress for my wedding. Dao truly is an expert at what she does. I lost around 20 pounds between when I purchased my dress and while she was fitting it for me so she essentially created a new dress. It was a lot of work and Dao did an incredible job.Not only is she an amazing tailor, she is the nicest person. Wedding planning can be stressful but I always looked forward to my fittings because I knew Dao had everything under control and would not be done until I felt amazing and everything was perfect. She was so sweet to my mom and I every time we saw her.

When I bought my wedding dress, it didn't need many alterations except for tailoring the length of the gown itself, the sleeves, and adding a bustle. However, from the moment I put the dress on for Dao, she saw alterations that I never would have dreamed of - she added boning, moved some lace around, restructured the cups, and essentially remade my dress to fit like a glove. If you want to look and feel your best for any occasion, I cannot recommend Dao enough!

Dao saved my wedding! I had a bad experience with a tailor in Boston and reached out to Dao 3 weeks before my wedding (extremely last minute). Dao was able to make all the necessary alterations to have my dress fitting perfectly in ONLY TWO weeks!! Cannot recommend enough!

Dao is a fantastic! Extremely talented dressmaker. I decided to get married in my Mother’s wedding dress that she wore in the 90’s. With Dao’s skills she was able to modernize it and fit it to me. Some of the big changes were taking off the puff shoulders, adding a side zipper to the top, adding breast pads, hand sewing an overlay lace, covering two holes in the back of the train, and more!We were able to do this in about 5 months time and open communication back and forth on dishing and what was realistic.

Choosing Dao for alterations for my wedding dress was one of the best decisions I made in the planning process! I was recommended to her through VOWS Bridal Salon and I could not have been happier with the results! She is truly incredible at her craft and made the process incredibly smooth throughout. Her alterations were stunning and made the dress perfect! I would recommend her to anyone in need of alterations!

Working with Dao was one of the best decisions that I made in the wedding planning process! The bridal salon where I bought my dress, and a friend who used her for own wedding, both recommended Dao to me, and from the first fitting I had total confidence in her. I've never worn anything that fit me as well as my wedding dress did! She knew exactly what adjustments to make from a glance, and as a result the dress turned out so beautifully. She's also incredibly nice and kind. Thank you Dao!

I went there to get my jeans fixed as the fabric for the button was loose. They just stitched a piece of fabric on the inseam and used thin black thread on blue jeans to sew a completely different button, not a pants button, which broke off within a week. Wouldnt recommend for repairs.

I went to Dao for tailoring for my wedding dress this past Summer & Fall and I can’t say enough amazing things about her work! Dao was so knowledgeable about what areas of my dress needed to be tailored so it would fit me best and helped explain everything to me so I understood what alterations she would be making. Dao was so patient with all of my questions and concerns as well. My dress turned out beautifully and fit me like a glove. I would highly recommend Dao to any future brides – she will help make your dress even more amazing!

I cannot recommend Dao highly enough, she is an absolute magician and so incredibly lovely to work with! I found my dress in late April and became pregnant in late May (planned but earlier than expected!). I ended up being over 5 months pregnant at my wedding and was so sad to think I would have to buy another dress. Despite gaining 20 pounds, (hello pregnancy) Dao was able to alter my dress beautifully! She saved me from having to buy an entirely new gown and was able to make the additional alterations at a very reasonable cost. She worked with me because she cares and she wanted to, not to make a big profit. She is a kind, fantastic person and so talented. You will be in the very best hands if you go to her.

Dao was amazing! She completely transformed my wedding dress. I had lost 80 pounds after selecting my dress and within 4 months she completely made sure it fit perfect to my body. I was still losing weight prior to my wedding and she added hooks to make sure I felt secure. I would trust Dao in the future with any of my dresses!

Dao is incredible! I brought my wedding dress to her for alterations, and she made it fit better than I even knew it could. It had beaded lace all over, and she made sure every bit of the pattern lined up perfectly. She also finished off the hem on the see-through train in a seamless, beautifully clean edge. While Dao's work is absolutely top tier, that's only half of what makes her so special. She is incredibly kind, and truly wants the best for her clients. I felt beautiful in my dress because she tailored it exactly how I felt comfortable with it fitting, and that meant the world to me.Service: Wedding gown alterations

Dao is really helpful and professional when she made my suit fit me perfectly, and she even fixed a few things that make it even more gorgeous than the original version. The price is reasonable. Highly recommended

Here I had my dress made and it fits me perfectly, also fixed a few things that make it even more gorgeous than the original version. She added some secret tips to make the bottom of my dress to flow beautifully. The price is reasonable.

My family has been coming to this tailor for a few years. Dao is really friendly and she does a fantastic job. I brought a dress in while I was home visiting my family a few weeks ago. There's just nobody in NYC like Dao. She is patient and you never feel rushed. She'll ask questions and get things right. I picked up my dress and to no surprise, it's PERFECT.
