My very expensive dress ended up being measured too small in the bust and I was so upset by how awful it looked when it arrived that I wanted to throw it in the trash!!! I brought it to Lynn’s and Tina and her team worked a MIRACLE on this dress. They had to let out the bust, reshape it to fit a small band/ large cup size, and take in the waist multiple sizes. They also added spaghetti straps for me so I have peace of mind about where it’s sitting all day, and created a bustle that makes it look like the dress is simply a floor length gown and not bustled at all (which is everything I could have dreamed of because I HATED the look of all bustles I’d seen and was just going to change for the reception so I didn’t have to have one).
I had 3 weeks between my original appointment and second fitting and less than a week for them to make the edits needed for me to take it home (fixing how the lace was laying, a couple small take-ins and darts, moving buttons to make them lay better). When I tried it on at the second appointment we were confused until we zipped it because it looked untouched besides the straps. You literally can’t tell the dress has been altered and after the final fitting it looks like it was made for me!!! Lynn Fashion & Bridal did an incredible job. I had so much anxiety about this dress and 4 weeks after they took it I have it back home with me and it’s perfect.
The pricing is great for the quality work you receive. You won’t be overcharged and you won’t be disappointed with the results, even if you bring them a disaster! I recommended them to my bridesmaids and anyone else who needs altering! I will be going back for cleaning and...
Read moreI went to Lynn Fashion to have my wedding gown altered based on a recommendation from my dress shop. I am a very particular bride and I had a very specific vision for my gown! In order to turn my store bought gown into my dream dress, I had a list of things that needed to be done including a hemline, custom appliques sewn to the top and bottom, removal of netting, button loops reinforced, a bustle and a custom veil to match (to name a few). I worked directly with Tina and Phuc and they did a fantastic job!! It took several fittings due to the specifics of my alterations, but they made sure to do it well and do it right!! They were extremely patient in listening to my vision and seeing photos of what I wanted. I’m sure my dress was not their easiest project, but they eased my worries and made me feel comfortable during the process. Their work is superb and they do it at a respectable cost. I feel like many other seamstresses/tailors would nickel and dime you for every little thread, but Tina wanted me to be completely happy, so she took care of what needed to get done. My gown turned out perfect and I received countless compliments on my dress. In addition, I had no issues with anything tearing, ripping or coming apart the day of my wedding. It’s hard to impress me, but I was extremely happy I went with Lynn Fashion for my alterations. The shop is a small hidden nook off East Colonial, but don’t let its quaintness fool you. They have some of the best tailors working for them and made my dream dress a reality!! Thank you...
Read moreI don't have anything but good things to say about Lynn Fashion & Bridal. I originally bought a bridesmaids dress at an online store a year and a half ago before covid. The dress was just a tad too snug and I planned on losing a few pounds to fit in it. Then covid hit and the wedding was pushed from May 2020 to November 2020, then again to May 2021. Needless to say, instead of losing weight, I ended up gaining more from stress eating and snacking during covid and having no where to go. My dress ended up needing 6 or 8 inches taken out (which is a lot) because of the weight I gained. I took it to Lynn's around the end of March for the wedding in May. She said it might need to be turned into a corset and that she needed to get more fabric to make the corset. I came back literally 12 days later when she said it was done and she didn't even need to do the corset at all. Her team used the material from my hem that needed to be done and literally added panels to each side of the dress. You can't even tell they did anything to it. I unfortunately do not have a before picture but I will post the pictures of the panels added and the after picture (before the hem was fully done). The whole dress was done with the construction to the dress and the hem, in less...
