Baptism Dress – I had Sew Special make my daughter's Baptism gown. I explained to them that I wanted something simple yet pretty, with some lace, and not to long. What I got was a beautiful gown for my daughter that far exceeded my expectations!!!! It was beautiful and and more elegant than I imagined. My daughter was the most beautiful baby there. I highly recommend Sew Special to everyone that I know. They do exceptional work, and have the most friendliest people.

Professionals come at a price – I recently bought my first linen suit and wanted it custom fitted. I?ve never had a suit fitted before and after researching online I decided to check out Sew Special Custom. The whole experience from start to finish was very pleasant and professional. Everyone I dealt with seemed genuinely concerned with the outcome of my suit. I will say I paid more than I expected too, but quality comes at a price. My suit had major work done on the coat pockets (had to move 3 pockets), but you would never ... read more

Best Inexpensive Tailor – I bought this jacket in Europe a year ago and I like it so much and I wanted a replica of it. I have searched high and low in the city of Chicago and found this unpretentious shop. The mature lady behind the counter was very friendly and helpful. I entrusted my jacket and the fabric that I bought to them. After a few weeks, I got a call from them that my jacket is ready for fitting and pick up. I was a little nervous at first, as soon as I took the plastic cover. Wow!!! I got the exact replica of th... read more

Used to be good – I gave this business a great review once, but am writing a new one now because alterations that used to be $7 a year ago are now $18! Almost not worth it to fix a garment. All they care about now is that you give them a a nice review, so they can rip somebody else off based on their "good" name. I will be looking for a new tailor - someone good and reasonable. Beware of all old reviews...

Best Cleaners on Broadway – I take all my dry cleaning to Sew Special. It's hard to find someone who handles your clothes the way you want.

Nice job – I came here recently to have a bridesmaid dress altered. The tailor did a nice job. It was a tad on the pricey side and only a bit cheaper than some of the other tailors I have been to (i.e. La Modista). Although I will say they were very customer-oriented. I would recommend this place for dress alterations over an everyday dry cleaners.
