Absolutely amazing from start to finish

Kim is the best seamstress that I have ever worked with! My wedding dress was complex with may layers but she altered it just perfect for my body. She is extremely professional and the quality of her work is absolutely phenomenal. She truly cares about her work and ensures her work is high quality and is satified by her clients. I can guarantee that she is the one and only seamstress in Calgary that offers affordable prices and exceptional quality. I highly recommend everyone who needs any alteration for clothes (especially wedding dresses).

Amazing experience!

Kim was wonderful to work with for the alterations on my gown! I am so happy I found her to shorten and take in my gown, as well as shorten the straps. She does amazing work and is wonderful to communicate with. Her prices are definitely reasonable and absolutely worth it! Thanks Kim!

Efficient and professional!

Kim did a perfect job with my alterations (shortening the skirt and straps of my dress). I also really appreciated her perfect blend of listening to my and my mother's concerns/ideas and also offering her expert opinion and advice when we weren't sure or hadn't considered something important. Would 100% recommend.

Great work, Great Price

Kim was fantastic when doing my dress alterations. I'm a bigger, bustier gal and I was afraid my dress alterations would be extremely expensive but Kim's prices were more than fair. She did great work, and was very good about communicating with me about everything. She gave me great estimated timelines and worked extremely hard on everything that need altering.

Highly Recommended

Kim is absolutely AMAZING! She is responsive, professional and extremely talented. I'm so glad I trusted her with my wedding dress to her. She was able to shorten the train, insert cups, take in the body and shoulders. Her work was flawless and the turnaround was quick. She did such a great job that I've started to use her for my casual and work clothing alterations.

Great quality at an affordable price!

Kim is a lovely, genuine person. She responds very quickly. I am an overweight woman but lost 40lbs in between ordering my dress and it arriving. Even though it was a lot of work to completely alter the dress (i'm also very short) she was up for the challenge and was very clear about the cost of each alteration. She offered her services at a great price and finished the alterations very quickly despite it being over Christmas and clearly having many customers at the time. She never once made me feel shame about my body and was such a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Kim - you won't regret it! Best wishes!
