Best to also call ahead to make sure she, or the regular seamstress, is there for an accurate
fitting and measurement to be taken.

TOP TO BOTTOM FORM FITTING DRESSES AND LADY SUITS: Some dresses and lady's suits that are form fitting (strapless or body fitting) from top to bottom, as opposed to parts of the dress hanging with shoulder straps or free flowing skirt, generally require several fittings and adjustments. Customers must wear the exact same shoes and undergarments for each fitting. Hence, this requires a lot more time of our staff and seamstress and will cost significanly more. That is, at least four (4) times more, e.g $45 typical aleration cost times 4 = $180.00 plus tax. You should plan on getting your dress to us at least 3-4 weeks ahead of time and also plan on returning several times for fittings and additional adjustments. Lastly, these types of form fitting garments must be 100% Pre-Paid before any work is done and the payment type is CASH ONLY; Check or Credit Card will not be accepted for this type of work.
Customer must also sign a waiver that accepts all risk to this type of alteration. |
