Sewing & Alterations in Virginia Beach

“Love this location. David is great. I bring in high end/expensive garments and have always been please with the job that they do on my items. I get an email when my dry cleaning is finished and is ready for pick-up which I absolutely appreciate.“

“My heart was broken when I left my wedding dress in a climate control unit only to find out rats damaged it. Something I was holding on for my children when they get older. I thought I had to trash the dress. I brought it in and Ellie was so helpful, my dress looks brand new. She is the sweetest person I’ve ever met. I highly recommend this place! I couldn’t be anymore happier with how my dress turned out.“

“When found my dress the zipper was sticking they said we make it into corset within the dress and said that would be amazing, they where nice, kind and did fast alterations before my military event and it was within budget I highly recommend anyone wanting get dress alterations you need come here and have them do your dress they are awesome.“

“Helma is amazing!!! She did my wedding dress and engagement dress and did an incredible job! She is always willing to come in early and has a flexible schedule to allow for fittings, she was able to work miracles with my dress and she is very fair with pricing. Highly recommend for any tailor needs!“

“This business did an outstanding job creating a full set of custom curtains for our Airstream. We brought in 23 yards of thick burgundy fabric along with our old curtains, and every panel was recreated with precision. These were large, heavy pieces with older hardware that needed to be reused, and everything was matched perfectly.

The craftsmanship is exceptional. Even though the shop typically focuses on dresses, the owner took this project very seriously—she even took the curtains home over a weekend to make sure the work was done right. The turnaround time was under two weeks, and the $1500 labor cost was extremely fair for the amount of detail involved.

My wife and I absolutely love the handmade curtains. They were challenging to make, and this business delivered above and beyond. Highly recommend for any custom sewing or specialty fabric work.“

“My husband walked in needing a same day sew on his uniform and the owner did it right there on the spot! In and out within 5 minutes! And for $5! We were so stressed if we would find someone to get it done the same day and she made it a breeze! Highly recommend!!!“

“I’m really happy with the dry cleaning service I received. My clothes were cleaned thoroughly and came back looking fresh, crisp, and neatly pressed. Even difficult stains were removed effectively without affecting the fabric quality. The staff was professional, polite, and handled everything with care. The turnaround time was quick, and the pricing was reasonable. Overall, it’s a dependable service that delivers consistent results, and I would gladly recommend it to others.“

“They did a fantastic job alternating my wife’s clothes. Professional & highly skilled. Will be going back there.“

“I had a last minute tailor requirement to take in a pair of suit pants. Not only did she do a great job, but she gave me next day service! I would definitely recommend.“

“I’ve been using Yi for about 15 years. She does amazing work is always on time and has very competitive prices. She has saved a lot of pieces of clothing that I thought would never look right, but after she alters them, they’re perfect!“

“I had a jacket and a fleece lined sweatshirt/hoodie with broken off teeth on the zippers, that still looked like new so I brought them to QW. She replaced them both with matching ones, and they both look and work like brand new again. Can't even tell anything was replaced. The inner flap in the jacket was no problem at all. It did cost ten dollars more because of the extra work to remove and replace them, which was understandable, and I am very pleased with the result. The price to R&R the sweatshirt/hoodie zippers was a bit higher than expected since there was nothing fancy about how they are hemmed into it, but you get a high quality job, which means a lot when the clothing you need repaired are some of your favorite (better quality) clothes that you can't find anywhere now for realistic and/or reasonable prices. (Which is why I chose to have them both fixed) She is extremely nice and pleasant to do business with also. I would definitely use QW Alterations again.“

“Best tailor in Virginia Beach! Actually, scrap that, best tailor I think I've had in my life! Excellent service, excellent work! I have had many items tailored here but felt compelled to write this review because I recently had a fairly complex suit jacket tailored by Cristina. She took the time to consider the best way to keep the beautiful lines of the jacket and it shows. If you don't live close by, it's still worth the drive for the quality craftsmanship here!“

“Just picked up a pair of pants to have a good size rip in the waistband fixed. OMG they're awesome! I can't even tell where the rip was as the entire waist and is the same all around! Such lovely people there as well!!“

“Mrs. Kim is tip notch. I have been coming here of and on for 20 years and she has never disappointed. I love her professionalism, her beautiful spirit, and most of all her workmanship. She is always on point and her prices have always been affordable. Honestly, she should be charging more but she doesn't. Check her out if you want a tip knotch seamstress. Don't let the small shop full you. You will not be disappointed.​“

“My family and I have been going here for 30 years. She is so talented and timely. We adore her! I live in Richmond now, but I wait to bring any clothes I need altering for when I visit VB because she’s the best!!“

“Very very good work! I’ve brought several things here from suits to gym shorts and the owner did an incredible job with them all! Highly recommend“
