Lynn is awesome. She seems to be working 24⁄7(she is actually closed on Sunday) yet she always has a kind word and smile on her face. The work she does is top notch and she isn’t shy about giving her opinion about what will look the best, which is something you definitely want in a tailor. Ultimately she will do what you want and its at a great price. She has even sewed on buttons and fixed zippers while I waited and then not charged me for it. She is a real sweetheart and a great seamstress.

No one in Canada, or even North America for that matter, comes close to the expertise, precision, & quality Lynn exudes in her work. The next closest best tailor(shop) is in Denver, Colorado. Lynn has altered or modified a lot of my best & expensive clothes including pants, shirts, jackets, suits, etc. She knows how things should fit, consults extensively on what’s being done before doing the work & then again after, and can handle absolutely everything whether it be prom/wedding dresses, suits, jackets, kid’s stuff, drapes, tablecloths, and even upholstery! After moving to Toronto, I wanted no one else to work on some clothes so I sent them to Lynn, a friend picked them up, and the work was perfect. I entrusted another shop in Toronto«Harry & Sally» of which the former is an obliterating, untalented, liar, and they ruined both pants AND shirts, took the ruined stuff with me on a trip to Ottawa, and Lynn fixed them like pro. Harry & Sally can have some credit for fixing the pants however. There’s a lady at the corner where Somerset turns into Wellington that’s pretty good and she’s been there for a long time. I sometimes take my less expensive clothes or pants to her, but all good stuff or important things should go to Lynn. The guy in the Byward Market near the Rideau Centre sucks — so does Harry Rosen and Moores — shoddy! Keep in mind that this the FIRSTTIME I have ever given anyone or anything a PERFECTSCORE on ANYTHING whether it be movies, music, restaurants, etc, etc, etc. I hope Lynn never retires and seriously dread that might happen, coz I’ll have to go back to Denver, Colorado!
