Lucy Tailor

Brought a bridesmaid dress in that had been made specifically for me (and still didn’t fit). Luckily I wasn’t in need of the immediate alteration (as their turn around time was 1 week) but the dress was ready when they said it would be and fit perfectly!

I must say that I have had nothing but positive experiences the two times that I have visited Lucy’s Tailor.
I originally had purchased my wedding dress at Lucy’s Bridal, which is next door to Lucy’s Tailor (spoiler: same owners). I was hesitant to go to Lucy’s Tailor because the dress shop closed (which allowed me to get a great deal on my off the rack dress). However, after doing some research, I decided to take my dress back for alterations. (I later found out that the bridal store closed because Lucy was working both stores full time– a girl needs to have some down time!)
Lucy welcomed my mother, one of my bridesmaids, and me into the shop. Since my dress was purchased off the rack, it needed quite a few alterations. I had a vision for a unique dress that I could only afford by doing alterations to an off the rack gown. Lucy was confident and agreed that my vision for the dress is exactly what she pictured.
Lucy had me try on the dress and instantly got to pinning to remove the sleeves off the dress. Since the dress needed to be lifted in the shoulders, Lucy also recommended adding buttons to the back so the dress only zipped up half way. I left with a return appointment for a month and a half down the road.
The following scenario is why Lucy’s gets 5 stars in my books. I returned to the store by myself and it turns out that I came 3 weeks after I was supposed to! My fault! I put in the wrong date on my phone! Lucy had appointments booked for the day, but told me not to worry about it. I know that balancing 2 brides alterations at the same time was no easy feat!
I tried on my dress and it fit perfectly! I have one more appointment scheduled as Lucy is taking the trim from the sleeves and adding it into the hem where the sleeves were removed! Lucy also did magic on my full beaded belt and removed the sash that was sewn into the dress.
I can’t wait to wear my dress down the alter as Lucy has made it truly, a one of a kind! My alterations were not easy, and I would fully trust her for all my future alterations! Carmel is quite a drive for me, but it is worth it for her expertise!

The only place my family goes for our tailoring needs. Lucy the owner is lovely and knows what she’s doing! Inside the shop there are three changing rooms so you can put on your piece of clothing and have her pin it where it needs to be altered. Lucy is a wizard and returns the clothing within a week or so, just as requested!
