          ALTERATIONS PRICE LIST

A special note to brides, prom-goers and other formal wear customers:  So you found the perfect dress on-line.  Congratulations for finding a beautiful gown at the click of a mouse!  You probably paid plenty for your exquisite choice, but you know in your heart it is worth it.  However, you've found that you need it altered because your unique dress didn't arrive quite ready to fit your unique shape, and now the search is on again for perfection.  What you need to know is that often formal wear requires hours of patient altering to achieve your perfect look, and that patience and professionalism deserves to be compensated accordingly.   My goal is that you experience absolutely no worry about a single thing -- we will arrive at your perfect fit, even if you bring it to us at the last moment!  This short educational piece about the reality of the cost of formal wear alterations is brought to you by an alterations specialist who cares that your experience in our shop is a memorable addition to the anticipation of your big day.  Thank you for choosing Alterations by Phyllis!
