I had a great experience with Luda. My bridesmaid dress came in horribly made, with a noticeable seam that gapped at the waist line from all the excess material. She was very reassuring that it could be fixed, and was easy to work with.
As long as she got prior notice, she offered to stay late to let me pick up the dress after hours since I was coming from work.
The appointment was brief -- she had me try it on, then told me what she would do to fix the waistline. She also came up with a solution to bustle the train to avoid cutting the train.
Prices were average, I'd say. $30 for taking in the sides, $30 for hem (2 layers), and $15 for bustle/reinforcing buttons.
It came out beautifully.
