Sewing And Alterations in Richmond

“I had Veilance trousers and Jacket hemmed, they did an incredible job, the finishing was done just the same as how it comes new. Communication and service were anazing. Will definitely be coming back in the future“

“She works fast and she's very lovely and has very fair prices. A little confusing to get to but she helped me out. Would recommend“

“I brought in my lamb fur rug. They gave disclaimer that it could either be cleaned without damage or be cleaned with hardening of lamb skin. Turned out alright and was charged $30.“

“Samar is an absolute lifesaver! I was in a total pinch and needed my bridesmaid dress hemmed last minute. I brought it to her late Tuesday and told her I needed it by Thursday — she didn’t even flinch and kindly said she’d be happy to help. I had called a bunch of other places before finding her, and most were either rude or flat-out unwilling to even consider a quick turnaround, even though it was a simple hem.

On Thursday, I realized I needed the dress even earlier than I originally thought, and when I called to ask, she said, “No problem, I’m working on it right now — come by in 30 minutes.” Sure enough, it was ready and perfect. The hem was beautifully done, and her price was beyond fair — she didn’t even charge me extra for the rush!

I’m so grateful I found her. I’ll absolutely be going back to Samar for any future alterations and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. She’s kind, professional, and incredibly talented.“
