Elegant Alterations

To their credit I needed a bridesmaid top altered in February in a hurry and the got it done beautifully. So my mother who is 80 and needed many of her clothes altered due to health issues and weight loss from these issues wanted a dress altered for my wedding. I picked up the dress they over charged me then when my mother tried in on it was still as big as was when we dropped it off. My wedding was in 4 days and she lives in another city so re doing it here wasn't an option my sister paid a second seamtress to redo it and I was out $60. I will NEVER ALLOW THESE PEOPLE TO ALTER ANYTHING AND YOU BETTER BE CAREFUL!!! THEY NEARLY RUINED MY WEDDING

Pros: Convenient to my office

Cons: Dishonest, Poor Customer Service,

Some of the best most professional people I’ve ever worked with I have a lot of clients in the Music industry and they are delighted to work with Kathy the work is finished at TIME PROMISED TO PERFECTION I USUSALLY DON’T POST THESE THINGS BUT WHEN I SAW THE UNTRUTHFULL REVIEWS I HAD TO SAY SOMETHING they are great I’ve been going to them for 15 years I’ve tried the rest but they are the best Never had a Problem with my work or my clients that I’ve sent to them over the years I highly recommend the. Personally I have nothing to gain to lose by saying this but I’ve always been more than happy with Kathy’s work THEY ARE THE BEST take it from a Nashvillian I’ve lived here all my life in search of a good Alterations shop and I found the best just wanted my fellow Nashvillians to know Mark Vicktor

Pros: perfect worksmanship friendly people personal service

Cons: not even one

I had a bridesmaid dress I needed altered and was referred here. They told me it would be ready in a week so a week later I went to pick it up (this was a Wednesday). It hadn't even been started on. There was also a lady there that was picking up a few articles (one for that weekend) and none had been finished. She told me it would be ready in another week, so I called on Monday to make sure it would be ready. She told me it would be ready on Tuesday. So Wednesday I go to pick it up after work. I arrived at 5:15 and they were still working on it! I had to sit for half an hour and wait for them to finish my dress. When it was done, I thought the sash was still too long but I didn't want to wait anymore. I finally left a little after six and was very unhappy. I thought she charged me way too much considering all my inconviences. I looked at the hem when I got home and was not very pleased. I could've done the same work on my personal sewing machine.

Pros: the alterations in the top of the dress looked good

Cons: didn't complete work on time, poor customer service

these guys have never let me down...almost everything i have ever had altered from them (probably over 100 articles of clothing) has turned out perfectly!...in the rare case that it hasn't, they will have always been willing to work on it until i am fully satisfied. i would never ever consider going anywhere else...the icing on the cake is that they are really cool and interesting people as well!

Pros: their obvious pride in their craft

Cons: not really a con, but if you want your article on time, you might want to call them the day before and remind them (has always worked for me!)

A friend getting married took her dress in for alterations - hemline let out on front and breast cups sewn in. They told her a week; a week later we went to get it. It was where she left it, untouched. We were very frustrated. She said it would be ready 9:30 the next morning. We went at 9:30; the cups hadn't been purchased. When we walked in the door, she gave an associate $20 to run and buy them. While the bride was trying it on, another customer asked about some alterations turned in a week before, and the seamstress saidthey hadn't been touched. The woman was not pleased. Overall, a bad experience. The owner/manager was not apologetic, and the hem stitch was very wide - poor quality. We still paid full price, despite the inconvenience.

Pros: vicinity to work, good parking

Cons: not completed on time, poor quality stitch, not apologetic

The staff at Elegant Alterations are pros. I have worked with tailors all my life (off the rack clothes never fit me) and EA delivers work on the highest quality. If you need it in a rush, they will work with you too.

Pros: Quality, Customer Service, Friendly
