When I took my bridesmaid dress in to have a seam let out on the hip, she said it was no problem and i should come back the next day at a certain time. I came back at that time, and she wasn't there, the other girl called her and she said she was too tired to come in yet. She said to come back the next day, and I did, but she had forgotten about the dress and told me to come back the next day. So I did, and again she had forgotten, so she said to come back in an hour. I did, and she still hadn't touched the dress, so she sat down and did it right then. I tried it on and found out she had sewed a completely different part of the dress, letting it out on the bust instead of the hips! So she said come back the next day. I did. Guess what.... she had forgotten! She said to come back today at 9am (she knew this was the last day i had) and when I came at 11am she still hadn't done anything or fixed the mistake! She said to come back at 2pm. I did. Nothing. So I waited there while she did it, and tried it on and it was a little better than when I originally brought it in, but the part she had done by accident before was still unfixed. AND, there was a stain on the front middle and on the left side of the bust. I had no more time to keep coming in so I had to take it as it was, and she charged me $115!!!! For two hours of work (I was sitting there the whole time), for sewing the wrong part of the dress, for not fixing it still at the end, and for staining it!! And then she yelled at me when I seemed disappointed with it!!
I am livid about this, and I have no time to get the dressed fixed now, and no recourse that I know of for what happened. If she just had said that she was too busy, or couldn't do it, in the beginning it would have been fine, I could have gone somewhere else! I will never, ever go back here.
Avoid Avoid Avoid!!
I agree. Avoid this place! It is July 3, 2010. She's had my wedding dress since May 22nd. She was supposed to do two bustles and take in the bust. I told her I did not want the hem done, the length was perfect. I went on the night I was expecting to take it home (June 29th) and the bust was done and she did the hem! When I put the dress on, it's too short now, you can see my feet when I'm not... more
