European Tailor — Local services in East Norriton Township

Crazy story! A friend of mine‘s husband has been using this tailor for 20 years for his suits. So she referred me to him when it came time for prom season to have my daughters prom dress altered. He hemmed the bottom of her dress and tighten the straps for $85. I was pleased. In a crazy turn of events 3 weeks later my friend who originally referred me to this tailor, her daughter got the same exact dress as my daughter in a different color. He literally did the same exact alterations… A little tightening of the straps and hemming of the bottom. That’s it! He charge her $256 and gave the dress back with the stain on the front of it!! Now remember it’s the same exact dress as my daughters. I will try to upload the photos of both dresses. He Did not offer to get the stain out and did not give a discount for the stain. Now they have to pay for dry cleaning, so far this junior prom dress has cost them just over $500 and now they have to pay for dry cleaning! We truly believe that she was charged so much more bc her family is more well-off than mine, we believe he upcharged her so much thinking she comes from money, and I was charged so little bc I’m just a “regular Joe”. If anything you would’ve thought they got the discount for going there for 20 years. He clearly did not know we knew each other. So he just lost a customer of 20 years and a new customer for life.

Need an excellent tailor for perfect alterations? You got it with Steve Chronis, AKA European Tailor in Norristown. Both my wife and I used Steve when our daughter was getting married. My wife found her ideal Mother of the Bride dress only 5 weeks before the wedding. I believe it was God who lead her to this extremely competent tailor for fitting and alterations. Steve exuded a quiet confidence and assured us that he had everything under control. His alterations were flawless and the dress fit perfectly. Steve even hemmed the trousers on my rented tux when it came two days before the wedding. The trouser length was dreadful. I immediately called Steve who said come right over. He did the measurements and made the alterations while I waited. The man is a magician, his alterations are perfection. Joe...

Now this is a man who knows what he's doing! I purchased a fancy jacket from Poland, and the arms were a bit too long. I needed them trimmed to better fit me, and figured I would give his shop a try. What I got in return was extraordinary, the sleeves were shortened to my standards, it was done quickly, you could not tell the sleeves were modified, and the whole time Steve was extremely friendly the whole time. If six stars were possible, I would happily give them to this place. Cannot recommend his...
