Ashburn Alterations

I went to this tailor’s home (that’s were she does her business) and brought 3 Aritzia pants to be cut about 3 inches shorter. She had me tried 2 of them, she put pin at the bottom where she would hem and then I took them off. She then told me she would charge me $50 per pants. That didn’t make sense to me as I thought going to her home would be cheaper and the day before, I was at Zarif tailor for another Aritzia pant I needed hemmed the same day and they charged me $30. So this lady charging me $50 at her home seemed too much to me, I told her and said I would just take the pants home. I took off the needles she temporary put on the pants and gave it to her. She said she still need to get $25 for coming and not getting service. Which she didn’t tell me before when I called her and texted with her for her address and parking instructions. Overall nice but it all just seem like a rip off. She measured my waist and hips with her tape which took 10 seconds so I was maybe okay paying the $25 but, Zarif tailor, an actually tailor business measured my bust for my wedding dress for free and charged much less. She was nice but again avoid this place if you think she might me a little cheaper given that she is operating from home. A great tailor in Loudoun county is Zarif in Leesburg.

Seela has done a wonderful job with my alterations. Always responsive, very accommodating, excellent at her craft. She is extremely easy to work with!

I came to Seela with a pretty last minute request to get a bridesmaid dress altered for a wedding and she did a wonderful job taking up the shoulder (which I hadn’t even realized would need to be done but it fixed a problem I didn’t know I had) and hemming the length within 2 weeks to get me my dress on time to fly out of town! Her communication was very timely, she was so sweet, and I really enjoyed my services with her. Would definitely go to her again!

Seela is an absolutely amazing and skilled seamstress. I took my wedding dress to her for alterations because it was a few inches too small and a strap needed repairs. This required several layers to be added, with colors matched, which she then beaded and decorated to match the rest of the dress. She also remade the crystal lining across the waist, and designed new straps that she made and beaded by hand which matched the dress SO much better than the original. The dress feels more secure, more coherent, and I’m so glad I found and trusted her with my dress. It feels much more like my dress after her work. I plan to return to her with other garments in the future for as long as I live in the area.

Seamstress Seela did an amazing job hemming, taking in, and adding a bustle for my train. My dress fit okay before, but her alterations made it feel just like a glove! It truly made me feel beautiful 😊
