“I can sew so I tend to do basic mending myself like patching a tshirt or darning a sweater but a full length silk gown for a wedding guest dress was above and beyond my abilities. Hannah did a great job on my husband's trousers so I brought my gown (though Nordstrom's offers free tailoring the fix I needed seemed above basic fitting) and I brought the tiny ellie "nap dress" my baby will wear for a lining. We asked to bring in a slit that was way too high and exposing for a formal gown and to fix the length. We also asked to line the ruching of my daughter's dress with cotton. Hannah cleverly designed a way to use all of the extra length of my gown to add a thigh covering panel that looked like the dress should have been designed with that perfectly matched the one other visible bias running seam. She selected a really nice cotton and in a few weeks perfectly improved my daughter's dress to her measurements (I didn't know ruching could be lined and be easy on easy off for a toddler) and reconstructed the side of my gown. When I needed a minor tweak I thought I would have to leave my gown again for another week but Hannah expertly fixed the hip area of my gown before I could change into my street clothes. I highly recommend Hannah at Hemmingway Tailoring for formalwear and clever and professional fixes.“
“my family and I have been using this dry cleaner for years. Michelle is wonderful, they're always very friendly, and no problem it's too big for them to handle.“
“The zipper pull on my favorite winter coat broke in the middle of a Boston winter. It's an unusual shape, so the tailor didn't have a replacement on hand, but he told me what I need to know to order one, and once I had it he replaced it for free in minutes while I waited.“

“Jacque fixed a zipper on a beaded dress, which was an impossibly difficult job. He worked on the dress for hours and then charged a very low price.Service: Formal wear tailoring“
