Legacy Tailor

The owner did the best job altering my wedding dress. I even had to have her put a rush on it because my wedding date was scheduled so quickly. I will be coming to the shop again and I highly recommend them to anyone; no matter how big or small the alterations are.

Legacy Tailor did an outstanding job taking in my daughter’s two school uniform shirts. The new seam looks just like the original, so my daughter’s shirts look great. We were very pleased with Legacy Tailor’s professionalism also.

This shop is amazing! Nagwa the tailor is so talented and very professional and fast. She finished the alterations on my wedding dress in about two weeks. She added everything I needed including sleeves, a back, beading, and fixed the hem of the dress, all in a beautiful fashion. Also she did a beautiful job on an additional gown we had.
Her shop is easy to access in Plano and very clean and organized. I definitely appreciate her entire staff and all the great work she did. I will definitely go back for more work in the future and recommend her to everyone I know! Thanks Nagwa!

I found this tailor when I lived in Plano and went to her all the time. Now that I live in Dallas I can’t make it up to Plano all the time so I have (sadly) had to find another tailor for daily things, but I made a point of going back to her for my wedding dress. Flawless tailoring and she definitely cared about making it perfect. I could not be more pleased; my wedding dress was perfect!

I can’t say enough good things about Legacy Tailor! The owner helped me alter three of my wedding dresses! Yes I said three! I couldn’t decide on which one I wanted to wear. The owner was so patient with me as the two months of alterations went by. I continued losing weight, and she continued bringing in my dresses! I was so fortunate to find someone that was not only so nice and accommodating, but so skilled at what she does! All of my bridal party used her as well, and were very happy with their alterations! I’m saddened by a couple of these reviews, because I saw several happy brides during my many visits to their store.

I just got back from our honeymoon (and was writing reviews of my vendors), and I thought I should let everyone know about a problem that I had with my dress that really hindered my ability to enjoy my wedding reception (that I spent more than $ 50,000 on).
I was referred to Legacy Tailor by Pure Luxe Bridal to alter my wedding dress. I paid more than $ 600 for alterations + around $ 60 for steaming of the gown the week prior to the wedding. My wedding coordinator (who has been doing this for decades) bustled my dress (American bustle) after the ceremony; and, about an hour later, the bustle fell apart because several loops broke (I paid for 9(?) loops — those were not cheap, either). So, I was unable to dance (or barely walk) during my wedding, which really put a damper on how much I could enjoy my ceremony, because I was sitting the entire time as a result.
Further, I was told by the alterations woman that the dress material «would stretch» within 20 minutes or so of wear. Needless to say, this did not happen, and I was extremely uncomfortable throughout the evening. The dress was so tight that it left bruises and I was unable to breathe throughout the entire day.
However, the bustle is the primary issue in this case.
I’m not sure what happened, but after spending such a large amount of money per bustle LOOP, these loops really should hold the train of a wedding dress up. They were not very responsive to my emails and did not care much about my problem. I sent several pictures, and although I live less about 30 minutes away, they gave me less than 24 hours notice to bring the dress in for «examination».
Not professional. Take your investment elsewhere.

I’ve lived in Plano for 15 years and used Legacy Tailor many times. It had been 5 years since the last time I’d been there. I was delighted to find that the shop and the same owner were still there. She is meticulous with her work, fairly priced and very good at figuring out where to alter clothing so that the shape and fit are just right. Definitely recommend. I’ve used other tailors and been disappointed with the results. With this shop, I am always impressed. I just picked up some clothes and the owner actually did MORE then she promised.
I was surprised to see a negative review. I’m wondering if that person confused this shop with the one across the street that does shoe repairs and tailoring. I also had a mediocre experience there, but this shop has always been great.

I’ve been meaning to write a review for this place but am now just getting around to it.
Came here per recommendation from a fellow Unilocaler, not really expecting too much. All I wanted was a tailored dress without too much muss or fuss.
So I brought my $ 200 Ann Taylor vintage lace dress in hoping to get it tucked in. I will say that at first the lady who owned the place didn’t seem too friendly. But her wall is plastered with all these beauty queen photos that thanked and commended her for all her work. So I figured it was okay.
Right off the bat, she knew that it would not just be a simple tuck in — there were other alterations that needed to be done to get the fit that I wanted and that impressed me because it was clear that she knew what she was doing. She was very upfront about pricing so there was no surprises the day of pick up.
When I came back to pick up my dress, the lady was just the sweetest thing ever. I’m assuming that this is normally how she is I probably caught her on a bad note the first time around. Either way, I loved the work she did. The dress fit me perfectly. I think I had lost more weight in the 2 weeks that she had time to alter the dress than expected that I’ll probably have to go in and get in tucked in some more, but her work is pretty darn good. Clean stitching and you can’t even tell that she moved the zipper of the dress over a few inches.

Really bad exprience… I brought in three items to get tailored and only one of them was done correctly. All I wanted was a snap on a shirt moved two inches and they totally ruined it! The pants were altered to the right length but the hem is pretty bad looking. Would not go back even though I can walk there from my apartment!

I grew up spoiled in terms of dry cleaning and alterations. My parents own a dry cleaners so my mom dry cleaned and altered my clothes for me until I moved away. So I have no clue what would constitute a fair price on alterations.
Legacy Tailor charges $ 13 for for pants and jeans; $ 15 if you want the original jean cuffs kept on. I took in 2 pairs of jeans and a pair of slacks. Nagwa (the owner) was super friendly and nice. My slacks were reduced perfect! The jeans were bit too long. I had brought in a sample pair to match. I brought the jeans back and Nagwa gladly offered to redo them. I’l be picking the jeans back up in a couple days and will see how they turn out.
Nagwa also alters dress shirts which is cool. I think she said it’s $ 20 to tuck in a shirts. I have some shirts which are too large on me so I may bring in a shirt or two.

Nagwa is the tailor Goddess! I have been taking my pageant wardrobe and every day clothes to her since 2006 and she has done a fantastic job every single time. She’s extremely kind, tentative, and truly listens to what you want. Whenever I need a gown altered for a pageant, I always take it to her. She even altered my custom Sherri Hill gown and it looks amazing. One time, she completely revamped a dress I bought by turning into a sweetheart neckline and custom stoning a design on the bust. I bring her the most difficult to fix dresses. She’s even shrunken a Size 8 gown to a Size 00. I have the most well-​fitted and perfect wardrobe thanks to her! I don’t trust any other tailor with my dresses. Take a look at all the pageant girls on her «Hall of Fame» and you’ll know she does exceptional work.
