I’ve lived on the island for a few years, and have tried other tailors for simple alterations. However, when I bought a DVF dress with a crazy billowing flounced hemline that was too long for me (with a lining!), I knew that it would be out of league for most tailors. Out of desperation, I took the dress to Robin’s, and she took one look at it, and was completely unfazed. She did an amazing job, and was totally cool and confidant about it. It looked awesome after she was done with it.
I would trust Robin with any of my pieces. She’s great!

I had my wedding gown altered by Robin and she did an amazing job. I needed an additional alteration a few days before my wedding and she did it right while I waited. She knew exactly what to do to make my dress perfect. And my mom and I had a blast hanging out and talking to her. Thanks for making my dress what I dreamed of!

Robin is incredible. I first found her when I needed my bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding altered. She did an amazing job, so much so that I didn’t want to trust my wedding gown with anyone but her. She made sure my dress fit like a glove! My husband, along with a couple of our friends, have also take their navy uniforms to her for alterations and always been impressed with her work. Will definitely be bringing more pieces to her! Thank you robin!

Robin is great! I have taken countless articles of clothing to her for both minor (shortening the hem on pants or a skirt) and major alterations (taking in a dress two sizes). She even adjusted the strap on a pair of sandals for me for my wedding! Robin also has a great eye for proportions. She will give you honest advice about how short to take a dress up so that looks best on your body and height. Don’t expect a bargain with Robin. She isn’t as cheap as other places, but she does wonderful work.

The best seamstress in the state, no doubt. They do it right the first time, they do it on time, and they solve all of my alteration problems. And they’re great fun! I take every piece of clothing I buy to Robin — tags on – because I trust her opinion as to whether it looks good, could look good with altering, or needs to go back to the store! I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Awesome awesome awesome! This spot is right down the street from me, so when I needed to have major alterations done to a bridesmaid dress, it was the first place that came to mind. I called Robin, explained that I only had a little over a week to go before the wedding. She had me come down to the shop and told me she would have it done in time. She even had it ready for me early and it fits like a glove. I now know to go a little bit earlier next time around as a week doesn’t give much time for the alternations, but Robin took care of me and even pressed my dress without even being asked. 5 stars all the way, I will be coming back with my wedding dress in a few months. Highly recommended!
