Mina was extremely helpful to me! She took the weight of the world off my shoulders! I bought my strapless dress from Priscilla of Boston and they recommended her. Beside the fact fact that the dress needed major alterations, I needed a bolero and veil. Amazingly enough, they covered them all. She had a large selections of fabrics and accessories and we were able to find a perfect match beaded lace for my bolero, and perfect veil to go with both my dress and the bolero. The appointment process seemed strange in the beginning... read more

I originally took my dress to a tailor shop recommended by the bridal shop... but when my grandma heard I did so because I didn't want to fill out the form on the "Mina Design and Tailoring" site (and because I thought they looked expensive!), she gave me a few wise words and made me pick up my dress right away and take it to Mina. Thank goodness for that! At first, I really did not get all the points my grandma made, but the minute we entered to Mina's large, bright, spotless studio, I started getting her points one by one!... read more

I can't begin to explain... – She is completely different from what you may expect- So do not let the little girl inside you start nagging and become an obstacle for you to get the best fit you deserve! They do not take phone calls, or make calls to brides. They do all correspondence by email, which made everything much easier for me, as I could not receive personal calls at work. They don't give you an estimate without seeing the dress on you, but they let you know if your budget is not realistic for your project. Also thei... read more

My daughter and I couldn't be happier! – Mina was referred to us by the bridal salon that my daughter bought her wedding dress from. I am a bit over weight, but I wanted to look beautiful and elegant for my daughter's wedding. I refused to buy a traditional MOB dress. We picked a beautiful silk fabric from their stock, and she made a very elegant evening gown for me. The embellishments she added to the dress were stunning. I looked young and glamorous in my dress. This was probably the most expensive dress that I've ever wor... read more

Mina is a miracle worker – I bought my dream wedding dress for an arm and a leg at Kleinfeld's in New York. When it arrived, I took it to Mina for the fitting. I'm pear shaped so it fit perfect on my hips but I need the dress taken in on top, where there was intricate lace and tulle. She put in boning to hide my lumps, and cups which allowed me to wear the dress without a bra (thank goodness!) By the time Mina was done, she had turned this form fitting dress into something that made me look like a sexy curvy goddess. The dre... read more

Yes! Mina saved my wedding! – After 2 failed wedding gowns, already purchased and ruined by 2 different tailors, I was 6 days away from my wedding. I came across Winnie Couture and went to check it out the very same day. I was stunned by their gowns and picked one right away. I brought it to Mina with 48 hours left before I left town to go get married. The woman didn't sleep to do my dress and YES - she knows what she is doing and she did it perfect! I couldn't be happier with what I got - absolutely stunning! Every woman de... read more

A smart item on my bridal registery – I liked two different designs for my wedding dress, but I was not in love with either. I liked the bottom of one and top of the other one. With this idea, I emailed my information, budget, wedding date, pictures and asked if they could help. I was amazed that they were very transparent and at the same time helpful. I immediately added them to my bridal registry was... who needs another toaster?!! In my first appointment, Mina made very helpful suggestions and I am happy that I took them.... read more

Exceptional – Mina was recommended to me by a well known fabric store. The minute I stepped in, I knew I was in the right place. She seemed very knowledgeable and easy going. I knew there wouldn't be any thing to worry about. My wedding dress fits me like a glove and I never looked so beautiful in anything. Mina helped me and walked me through the whole thing very peacefully and that's another reason to be thankful. Excellent

The Best! – I've known Mina for years now and I was always happy with her work. I never went to any body else for any tailoring. For my wedding I knew exactly what I wanted to do and I went straight to her with a picture on my cell. I was amazed each time that I went for a fitting of my wedding gown. Among all the others that provided some services for my wedding, only she could manage to keep my smile for days after each fitting. My wedding dress, the biggest part of my wedding, became the stress free part of it, just becau... read more
