One of the best alteration shops in the tri-state area. They are not on the cheap end but their quality of work is impeccable. Clearly they are extremely busy in the summer so I’m not sure why people are complaining. Irene and her staff are very honest about the fact that they are overbooked and it might take longer than expected to get your clothes back The place is highly recommended and I can’t thank enough Irene and her team for providing the best service

Reviews
I took my wedding dress, wedding dress topper, and rehearsal dinner dress to Silhouettes & Profiles and they did an amazing job on all three. The topper needed to be extended and they sourced matching lace to make it work. Can’t say enough great things about them and the skill, pricing, and availability of this tailor.
Irena is the best! She altered my mom's wedding dress so I could wear to my rehearsal dinner and she did such an incredible job. We slowly made the alterations appointment by appointment, and she took such careful time to make sure I was happy with the dress while still make sure it would look good with the alterations. It looks so great now and I can't wait to wear it!
