Kelly’s Alterations

Kelly does an amazing job. I’ve been going to her for years and she’s always great! And if it’s not right the first time she will fix it and not charge you again. She even helped my boyfriend out when he needed pants hemmed in 24 hours to be in a wedding!

Kelly was very sweet, and the quality of the alterations she DID complete were great. However, Kelly failed to alter my dress completely. You know how a tailor will place pins all over the garment to remind themselves where to alter? She missed an entire section of her own pins on my dress. Mistakes happen.
When I took the dress in for a refund (the formal event I bought the dress for had already passed), Kelly’s demeanor changed. She was incredibly rude and unwilling to give me any sort of refund, despite the fact that she agreed the dress didn’t fit at all (as a result of her alterations).
Dishonesty will turn me away from any business, no matter how great the quality can be.

After searching Atlanta for a tailor who could work on shearling, I finally found Kelly. The jacket I took in had sleeves that were too long and too bulky for my petite frame. This was a tricky job — she had to take the bottom part of the sleeve off, take the sleeves in, and reattach the cuff. The jacket looks amazing — you can’t tell anything was done, and it fits perfectly! She did an expert job, and I couldn’t be happier with the work she did. I’d be comfortable taking anything to her!

She works really great, alittle pricy and has great attention to detail. I went in letting her know what I wanted but as the expert in her skill she recommend other lengths when hemming pants. She explained the fabric and depending on the shoes the length maybe correct or incorrect.

Reasonably priced alterations and delivered in a timely manner.
That said, I did not have something I absolutely needed in perfect shape altered here.
I first brought in a leather jacket that a cat (he’s more of a cat-​dog) decided to shred up at one sleeve. I just wanted to spend some money on it to get it up to wearable condition. Luckily the sleeves needed to be taken in a little anyways. The seamstress kept saying that the sleeves would be too short, but I encouraged her to do the alterations anyways. It turned out better than I expected — she was able to shorten the sleeves (and zippers at the sleeves) and finished it easily within one week (she probably could’ve finished sooner if I asked).
I next brought in a vintage dress whose back lost it’s elastic and needed to be taken in and up. While she thought it was a pretty flimsy dress to alter, again I asked her to suggest alterations that would solve the problem. She decided to just take it in on the sides, which was a quick and dirty way to do it — but hey, again, it worked very well.
Overall, the alterations get done. This business is a pretty low budget operation — I’ve only seen the owner/​seamstress there, it’s never really crowded, and you might be taking home a hanger that doesn’t seem to fit your garment. She has a good memory to remember which items you dropped off, but it can be startling that she doesn’t have a better method of keeping track of your items.

This is my first experience at a alterations business. My experience was very good. I’ve took in three pants and two leather jackets one was a $ 700 a Michael Kors leather jacket and she altered perfectly. The other jacket she had a harder time with because it was so heavy but she did very well with as well. I also took her three pairs of jeans. One included a pink Versace Jean that was originally $ 300. I had purchased when am I was in the process of losing weight and after an additional 30 pounds they didn’t fit me. The jeans after she altered them fit really well and the other two pants I had no problem with so overall my experience was very good.

Kelly’s Alterations is a great alterations shop. They are very professional and the prices seem very reasonable if not better than competitors in the area. Kelly (the owner) was very kind, patient, and thorough. She took the time to take correct measurements for my suits, sports coats, and slacks. Everything fits very well, and the one or two items that didn’t fit too well, I simply went back to her, told her what was wrong, and she went ahead and fixed the problem areas. Her and her team did a great job. I had had a not so pleasant experience at the previous alterations store I went to, so it was very refreshing going to Kelly’s. The next time I need alterations performed, I will definitely be going back to her store.

Great alterations and reasonably priced. She knows tailoring and what needs to be done. I have to get a lot of alterations done and she’s been great.

I am very impressed by all of the work that Kelly has done on my clothes. Being extra petite and size 00/​XXS, I literally need to get all my business suits, coats, and dresses altered, sometimes extensively. Kelly was also able to fix a pant that was sloppily altered by another tailor (Q Tailors); she amazingly converted that slouchy pant into a slim and sexy cigarette pant.
This is where I go to alter my Versace, Burberry, Malandrino, BCBGMaxAzria, and suiting. Kelly always does an excellent job on the alterations. Prices are reasonable and competitive.

Good deal, I will recommend my friends come here for sure.
