Danielle C. Sent on 01/22/2024Thank you Esin for perfecting my dream dress!
Esin and her team are absolutely phenomenal and perfected my dream dress on a tight timeline. I purchased my dress at Lovely Bride, and was nervous about altering the dress too far in advance in case my weight changed. Given the material of my dress, Esin suggested we do my fitting in mid-October for my early December wedding. Esin came recommended by Lovely Bride and she has worked on the dresses of dignitaries, former First Ladies, and countless brides, so I knew I was in great hands! My dress needed to be taken in significantly, hemmed, and bustled, and I also wanted to alter the slit to fall below the knee instead of at mid-thigh. Esin and her team perfected all the work in three appointments over less than six weeks. My dress fit me like a glove and was exactly what I was hoping for. Specifically, Esin transformed the slit into something that was more modest and subtle - allowing movement and showing my shoes - without changing the structure of the dress. The bustle was super user friendly and lightweight. Throughout the process, Esin was kind, encouraging, and complimentary, making me feel comfortable and right at home in her studio. She even gave me a “something blue” for our wedding. Thank you Esin and team for my perfect dress! -

Esin might just have the most calming, soothing energy I’ve ever experienced from someone! Getting my dress altered was one of the things I was the most nervous for during wedding planning, and Esin and everyone at Sew Elegant were just so reassuring and helpful throughout the process. She made my dress fit me like a glove. I have a rather large chest, and she altered the top of the dress so well I didn’t even need to wear a bra — honestly a true miracle!! She also added a bustle to my dress that lasted throughout the entire night and she walked my bridesmaids through how to bustle it for me. Without a doubt this was the best money I spent during wedding planning — know you’re in good hands with your wedding dress with Sew Elegant! -

Sew Elegant is the BEST. Period. They were recommended to me by my bridal shop and I couldn’t be happier with how my dress turned out. I had my dress tailored back home in MA, but decided I wanted to make some last minute changes at the hips before the big day. They made an appointment for me the following weekend and made all alterations in less than a week’s time so I could have my dress back with plenty of time to spare. Esin was just wonderful. She truly listened to what I envisioned and showed me exactly how she would do it. She let me take all the time I needed to come to a decision. When I went to pick it up, it was perfect - exactly how I wanted it. She didn’t charge me for the alterations saying, “It was nothing. I just want to see you happy.” This type of kindness and generosity is very hard to come by in the wedding industry. I was just shocked, but so grateful for their work. Esin at Sew Elegant truly cares and wants you to be happy. I cannot recommend them enough! -

Esin is incredible! She was patient and offers great expertise. My dress had a lot of intricate beading on the top half. However, Esin’s alterations made the dress fit me perfectly and seemed as though the alterations did not occurred because the beading and detailing stayed intact! I was so comfortable on my wedding day. I loved each fitting (3 in total). She showered me with kindness and it truly was the least stressful step of my wedding process. She is so talented and kind! I cannot say enough good things about Esin and truly wish her the best! -

My experience at Sew Elegant has been absolutely wonderful so far. They were recommended to me by Jenny Yoo, the designer of my dress. From the moment I stepped into the store, I felt like family. Esin and her team are so warm, kind, and accommodating. They have made each fitting easy and completely stress free. I am so excited to see the final results and feel confident on my wedding day in my perfectly fitted dress thanks to them! Highly, highly recommend to all brides! -

Amazing work
My experience with Sew Elegant was incredible. They were recommended to me by Glamour Closet, where I bought an extremely oversized, off-the-rack dress that I just knew was "the one" but needed to be completely remade. As such, the alterations cost more than the dress itself but I knew that was going to be the case and I'm happy I paid the price for a proper alteration team.
Originally the timeline for alteration was 2 months, but because of COVID-19 I only had 3 weeks from when businesses were allowed to reopen until my wedding--and Sew Elegant worked their magic quickly for me! The dress had to be completely reshaped--from a size 14 to about a size 6--and I also wanted to separate the outermost skirt layer from the rest so it could be worn with or without it.
The first appointment prior to COVID was with Esin, who made my mom and I feel very comfortable with her warmth and thoughtfulness. Then once businesses reopened I had 3 appointments in under 3 weeks with Sina and Halinka doing the majority of the heavy lifting on that actual alteration. Sina was tireless during my first fitting in pinning up the dress and talking through the intended alterations with me and my mom (who was on Facetime from RI)- she also was very available by phone to touch base while there was COVID uncertainty. And Halinka blew our minds with her seamstressing- she is absolutely remarkable- a perfectionist and professional at the highest level.
I took a risk hoping that I could find a seamstress that could see through the enormous pile of fabric that I bought and understand my vision for the outcome- and I'm so lucky that I went with Sew Elegant. Highly recommend! -

Chelsea Sent on 04/14/2017All the feels. Sew Elegant was recommended to me by 2 separate bridal stores along with my sister-in-law as well as my best friend whom both used Sew Elegant over the last 2 yrs for their wedding gowns. I disagree with some of the comments below regarding cost.. I found the cost to be fair and comparable to the other quotes I received (and lower than the rate I would have paid at RK bridal). She was sweet as pie and the environment is 0 stress and all the support. The staff is SO nice, accommodating and they treat you like a princess (which I imagine is hard considering EVERYone walking through the door is in full on bride mode).
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! -
User2329677 Sent on 09/22/2015Amazing job! I felt so comfortable throughout the entire fitting process that these ladies would get it right. They know how to flatter a woman's shape. They are definitely worth the price in that they will make your dress fit as it was originally designed for you. The owner is so sweet and genuinely kind and happy for each one of her brides, even gave me something blue for my wedding day!
