Do not go here. I had two dresses hemmed and they were both significantly shorter than we had discussed in the shop so I had to rebuy a dress and buy new shoes for the other dress. They are rude. I also took a white dress there and they told me they would not alter it because they might get a stain on it.

Rudest tailor I ever met! I stopped in as I'm here for a month and needed a simple button sewn back on...Smug tailor rolled his eyes, told me he has a $25 minimum and then made fun of me in front of the 2 business men that he was fitting. I have never been treated like this in any business establishment! It's too bad as my husband and I are both business people and have suits made and altered for us all the time....we're thinking about buying a place here to split our time but I won't give this business a second thought ever. He was condescending and just downright nasty. Please don't support this business, he shouldn't be in business!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm in Chicago for a month in a long term apartment...everyone in this town has been amazing and helpful EXCEPT today. I desperately needed a button sewn on a blouse and thought I'd stop by this tailor to see if he/she could help me. I walked in and the tailor a man, certainly not a gentleman, spoke to me like I was dirt on the bottom of his show. He rolled his eyes, made some nasty comment to the man he was fitting and told me he has a minimum $25 charge. I was shocked at how condescending and rude he was and even worse, how the 2 businessman in his shop joined in and laughed at my request. Even worse, as I waited for the elevator, they said to each other that they tried to help me...their help was...I don't know lady, why don't you go to your dry cleaner. Joke is on them as I'm 5'2" business woman and I have my suits either taken in or I have a tailor in Tampa where I live make my suits. My husband and I are looking to buy a condo here for the summer months and the infamous Oak Street Tailor will NEVER get my business nor my husbands!
