Irene is the BEST! Not only is she insanely talented at what she does but she is so warm and welcoming and makes you feel so comfortable from the moment you step through her doors. I just picked up my wedding dress yesterday after a few fittings and it is just perfect. I feel so confident with how it has turned out leading into my wedding day in a few weeks. Highly highly recommend! - UPDATE - My dress fit perfectly on our wedding day and I can't thank Irene enough for all of the incredible work she did on my dress!
I can’t say enough about Irene in terms of her expertise as a tailor, and her kindness. She really went above board and did a beautiful job tailoring my gown which had a tricky stretchy material as well as beading to contend with. She even gave me some special tape to use that would keep everything “in place”. Thank you So much Irene for the beautiful job you did, and your kindness!
Working with Irene was amazing from start to finish. I was nervous about leaving my dress but she thought through every detail. From the moment you arrive, the space is clean and calm. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable, I felt I was in great hands. My dress fit PERFECTLY on my wedding day. Thank you Irene, for doing a great job and being so wonderful to work with!
