Talented, Efficient and Sweet as can be...
by gmoneylove
I found this company of talented women through NYVintage where I bought a beautiful satin cocktail dress from the 50's (I think). The detail on this dress is in the folds and draping of the thing- I had to have it taken in from an 8 to 4/6 which is no easy feat. I also needed it done in a week due to the limits of an out of town wedding I was attending. I cannot express enough what a magician this woman was, and so sweet when I asked her opinion or expressed concern of any sort. She had patience and even suggested a slight hem to make it more youthful on me. This dress belongs in a museum under the heading "Ava Gardner red carpet looks" but it's mine. Oh yeah they even reinforced the fabric where it was beginning to fray. In a word BRILLIANT
- Pros: Artists of the cloth, Sooo accomodating and more than reason
- Cons: I don't live close enough

Best Tailors!
by lsland2000
The tailors at Silhouettes & Profiles are amazing. I was recently in two weddings (one at 7 months pregnant and one at 8 months pregnant) and neither bridesmaid dress was maternity. However, they worked their magic and both dresses fit perfectly. Plus they suggested that they do the work just before the weddings to get the best fit and suggested we do two fittings to make sure the dresses look perfect. I was so pleased with their work and that I now refuse to go to any other tailor! Thanks Silhouettes & Profiles!!!
- Pros: Able to rework any clothing item

Really great!!!
by KPine
I have been to many, many tailors in NYC and am rarely satisfied. I brought in a bridesmaids dress that fit horribly and they really did make this too picky girl happy. They reworked the entire dress to fit me and stayed patient with me through many fittings. Highly recommended!
- Pros: Best alterations in NYC...Very Patient!!!
