Tiger Tailoring

Butchered my $ 350 gown from Endymion ball. The top overlay was longer than the bottom satin layer. Strings not cut. I had to trim the dress with kitchen shears to avoid destroying it while walking. Terrible.

Maybe I caught Tiger Tailoring on an off day, but I did not have the same experience as the other reviewers. While they were fast, it was at the expense of quality. I took a bridesmaid dress into their shop to be altered. All that need to be done was a simple hemline, strap shortening, and a little taken in at the bust. When I picked up the dress, they didn’t have me try it on again (and it was my fault for not insisting.) So the morning of the wedding, I realized that the side seam on the bust was completely bunched and puckering, which caused the dress to fit horribly around my bust. In addition, the straps were WAY too long and I had to repeatedly pull them up! This was after TWO different conversations during the fitting that the seamstress hadn’t tightened the straps enough. She waved me off and assured me she would «remember» to fix them later. I’m so frustrated that I paid almost $ 60 for alterations that did very little to actually enhance the appearance of this dress and caused some wardrobe malfunctions on an already hectic day. I will not be back.

I have used Tiger Tailoring maybe a dozen times in the past year. Their rates are very reasonable, they work fast and the staff is quite friendly and efficient. Usually they can have your alterations done in two days if requested, nice atmosphere as well and you can get very close to the place via the LSU bus lines.

Very efficient and fast, usually two days, prices are very reasonable and can do tailoring in less than a week if requested. Very friendly, family owned place.
