« on: August 24, 2008, 04:07:28 pm »
alright so i need help finding a decent tailor that works fast! like 5 days fast.

i ordered my kairi costume a size to big (knew i shoulda trusted my gut instead of listened to dad!)





you see my problem, the back is pretty much falling off me and its way to loose and baggy TT_TT i need help fast!

ummmmm....i could do a quick fix on that in about 10 minutes, depending on where the seams and zipper are. but really that dress has very little shaping to it.  does your mom or grandmother or aunt have a sewing machine? all it needs is to deepen the seams.

my moms gone to my aunts and all the familey that can sew lives 3 hours away

i think i figured out im going to go to the local dry cleaners and see if they can help me out any, im sure they can. they can do a better job than i can and its suposed to be pretty tight.

thanks though

be careful though.  ive seen some hack jobs done from dry cleaner tailors, which really would have been acseptable if they hadnt charged as much as they did for it. 

i used to fix shirts for a guy, and i remember one load was a redo...ach it was garbage.

i will, from what people told me on the critique thread is that it seems like an easy fix, i just dont have a working machine at the momment to do it myself -.- i will ask my friend if they are any good, she runs a buisness next door to the place im probelly going to, the shop owners around me are real close knit so she should know how well they do.
