Alexs Alterations

This lady is the absolute best!!! SERIOUSLY!!!
I have lived on both coasts, and in four cities in the past 10 years… A good alteration/​tailor is really hard to fine. Not only is this woman really polite and very sweet, she does phenomenal work!!! I would trust anything with her!
I know what you’re thinking — I must know her and I’m doing this review as a favor. Absolutely not! I’m just so blown away by the quality and consistency and friendliness that I have to write such a stellar review :0)
I also like her because she is very honest. There have been a few times when I wanted to alter something in a certain manner, and she would tell me «It’s up to you, but I don’t think that’s a good idea because it will be more money and it won’t look as good if you do this.» That’s honesty! She could make more money by doing a bunch of things I ask, but she would rather it look really nice on me! She will tell me not to because it will look better and be cheaper for me. That’s awesome! Who does that anymore? Few people these days…
I have had shirts, pants, dress shirts, jeans, and shorts all altered and/​or fixed here and they all look spectacular!
YOU REALLY NEED TO GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY ;)

First of all this Unilocal review is long over due– by almost 7+ years! That’s how long I have been taking my wardrobe to Alex’s Alterations. Irina (the other half of Alex’s Alterations) is simply amazing! I’ve been going to tailors my entire life due to my short, petite frame with off the rack clothes never fitting quite right. She is far and above the most talented tailor I have ever known! And her husband Arsen is incredible too, they just work at different locations. Irina can take something that you never thought repairable and voila –make it even better than you imagined. On more than one occasion she has saved me when I was in a bind and made something come to fruition that others said was impossible, especially with formal attire, bridesmaids dresses, etc. She is a very thoughtful, genuine and kind person and has wonderful suggestions-​almost always better than you can imagine so trust her-she’s the expert! Her work is impeccable and timely and I trust her implicitly with all of my clothing. Literally, people stop me off of the street from time to time and comment on my clothes, wondering if they are custom made given the way they expertly fit my body. You will not be disappointed!

Excellent alterations! Very high quality! I only trust my clothes to her! Yes, I agree, slightly pricy, but you get what you pay for… If I’m taking a $ 100 tank top in for stitching, I’m only trusting it to the best!
