| - This place is great for simple alterations but completely inept for anything requiring an ounce of expertise. If you have anything of value, avoid at all costs!! I took a pair of $230 Tellason raw denim selvedge jeans to get a slight taper and a hem, and she completely cut out the selvedge detail! She told me she would taper them from the inside seam, she even pinned them from the inside seam, and then did the complete opposite. I brought the jeans back to see if there was anything that could be done, she was extremely rude and told me that I must have misunderstood her. The selvedge detail is one of the main reasons for buying raw denim and there's no way on earth I would have agreed to that. After I expressed that was not the case and was adamant that she told me the alteration would be on the inside, she began to yell at me and boast about her 37 years of experience and refused to refund my money. This is the most unprofessional, incompetent tailor I've ever come across. If you're making mistakes like this after 37 years, I think it's time to retire. Again, if you need a hem or a shirt taken in, sure she can do that - but that's a low bar for a "professional" tailor. As a repeat customer of hers, it's my fault for misplacing my trust in her and not using an online shop that specializes in selvedge denim. So much for supporting local businesses.
