I bought a sample wedding gown in a size 14, my street clothes are size 4. My dress has beading, sequins, and a long train. Irina and her staff made my dress fit perfectly! She took the dress in everywhere and created a beautiful bustle. And she and her office manager are just the sweetest!\r
\r
I went to the shop at least five times for alterations before the dress fit perfectly. I love that Irina is willing to make even the smallest changes -- I have not felt like she was rushing me out of the store or trying to convince me the dress fit where it didn't.\r
\r
The shop is small and can be a bit crowded on Saturday afternoons -- but it's fun to have an audience! Last weekend I even met another customer whose wedding dress was altered by Silhouettes & Profiles years ago. Seems they have many lifetime customers!\r
\r
I think the price is very fair, especially for NYC. I wound up paying 20% more than I would have paid to the bridal shop in Maryland where I bought the dress -- and they offered a flat fee.\r
\r
I recommend them for your most precious dress without hesitation!
Pros: Attention to detail, perfectionists
Cons: Limited hours
