Pat the Tailor Tuxedos

$ 40 for a new zipper on a winter coat. Not sure what the going rate is but I thought it was pricey (like half the price of the coat itself). Work was done very well, just didn’t expect it to be $ 40 and I wasn’t told the price before picking it up but I also didn’t ask.

I have been going here for 2 years and lately they have been AWFUL. They broke the clasp on my Cache dress and then «hand washed» my couture dress, stained it and then tried to blame it on me. When I dropped my garment off there were no stains and then they refused to give me my dress back unless I paid for their stains. Will never go back there again with anything of value.

Let me tell you about this miracle man. I hate strapless dresses with the fire of a thousand suns and I was a bridesmaid in two weddings this summer, both with strapless dresses. Well… I THOUGHT I hated strapless dresses. The fact is, the right tailor will make anything look good, and he took a style that looks tenty and unflattering on me and made it look fabulous by doing all kinds of wizardry on it (hemming, taking it in, fixing a bent wire in the front and replacing shoddily made hooks)… All at a reasonable price that was way lower than the quote I got from the nightmarish corporate Hellscape that is David’s Bridal. Faster turnaround, too!
Supporting independent businesses is important, but its even more important when they’re good at what they do. Everyone there is super nice and helpful. I recommend them highly to every near-​broke, desperate bridesmaid!

Pat the Tailor is a material mastermind. I was just recently a bridesmaid in a wedding. While the dress was very pretty, the style was not at all suitable for my body type. I was practically in tears about it.
Problems. Problems. Problems.
Each and every bridesmaid requested that the bride stay away from a strapless dress. One day, after much anticipation, we get sent a pic of the dress… surprise surprise! It’s 1 strap… ugh. Pat the Tailor built cups into the dress so I didn’t have to fiddle with a bra all freakin day and night. He even made me an attachable strap for the other side so that after all of the pictures I could put it on and not have to worry about adjusting anymore.
Also, the dress was way too low on top. I was so uncomfortable with how it looked and how I imagined myself to look in pictures next to the other bridesmaids. Not to mention, it was totally inappropriate to wear in the Church! I was ready to buy a shawl to cover myself. Old lady status.
The bottom was also too long and he hemmed it just right. I am so grateful for Pat the Tailor! Without his genius work I would have been uncomfortable for one of the most memorable days of my life. My bff’s wedding went so perfectly! The whole day was a smooth success. I’m so happy that I was able to enjoy it to the fullest extent! Love love love this place and will take all of my business here in the future. :)
I really can’t thank you enough! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Thank you thank you thank you!
