Mila did a wonderful job on my wedding dress which needed to be hemmed(which was no small task with all the layers) and taken in a bit . She is very talented, professional and sweet! It was great talking to her in my fittings to learn about her and all the amazing work she has done. Can’t thank her enough for altering my dress and it turning out flawlessly

Mila did the alterations for my wedding dress, and did an amazing job every step of the way! She seriously knows her stuff, and she really puts her heart and soul into everything she does. With Mila, she will make sure everything is done just right until its perfect, even with more difficult alterations. I will definitely go back to Mila for anything I need altered in the future. Thank you, Mila!

I cannot speak highly enough of Mila’s work. She altered my wedding gown and did a fantastic job. She doesn’t settle for anything less than perfect and it shows! Every detail is perfect. I’m very happy with my dress and I cannot recommend her enough!

When I first bought my wedding dress I loved how the sample fit me. However, when my actual dress came a few months later I was having serious second thoughts because it did not look great on me: the top was too big, it bunched in the middle, and the bottom was a little too snug. I was really down about it but was recommended to bring my dress to Mila, and I am so happy I did! Mila worked her magic and after a few sessions of alterations, the dress fit like a glove and I felt beautiful in it! She is amazing at her craft, and one of the hardest working people I know in general. Thank you so much for making me love my dress again Mila, and for allowing me to feel beautiful on my wedding day!

I was looking for a place to have a gown altered for my daughters wedding in September. I discovered this gem of a shop this month. I made a private appointment, no one else was in the shop. Mila pays expert attention to detail and has a huge background in wedding gown and mother of the bride gown alterations. The gown was ready exactly on time and looks great. I highly recommend this business!

Mila is an absolute angel and gem! As a bride getting married during a pandemic, she willingly accommodated myself and my family members in order to feel beautiful and comfortable for my intimate wedding ceremony! Her knowledge-base, skill set, and professionalism is unparalleled! We look forward to coming back to Mila in the future for all of our alteration needs!

My daughter learned she was having her Junior prom within short notice. When she found her dream dress, it naturally needed some alterations, however it is heavily beaded with a train and the dress itself was costly like many others. In order to do beading like hers, it takes a lot of experience, knowledge, and precision. Milavi brought us in on short notice on Easter day and we picked up the dress today! Amazing is an understatement! This woman put her time and craft into hand doing these beads and its perfect! Very highly recommended!!

I needed advice on a potential wedding dress. I asked if I could email or text her a picture as I live over an hour away. She insisted I come to her shop. Since she had good reviews I obliged. When I arrived & showed her a picture of the dress she insisted anything could be tailored. She didn’t allow me to ask any questions. She wouldn’t even provide me a price range. She was a extremely rude and insulting. She completely lacks interpersonalskills and is honestly one of the most impolite people I’ve ever met. It was a waste of time and a terrible experience.

Mila is absolutely incredible. Her work is flawless, her expertise is unparalleled, and her company is so enjoyable. She altered my wedding dress, which had an unbelievable amount of crinoline and a monarch train, and she handled all of that fabric like it was nothing. My dress looked like it was custom made to fit my body, thanks to Mila! She knew exactly what to do to make my dress look the best - I didn’t even make any suggestions, just trusted her judgment/expertise.With her experience at Brooks Brothers and Kleinfeld, she’s seen it all and is the consummate professional. Her pricing is very reasonable, and she is very accommodating with appointments. Location is easy to find with ample parking. I highly recommend her for all your alterations, big or small - you won’t be disappointed!!

Mila does incredible work! My mom was recommended to Milavi Alterations through a friend and I am so happy Mila worked on my wedding dress!! Wonderful care and customer service, and just beauitful work. I totally trusted Mila with my dress -- and after our wedding was postponed, she even had to take it in after my size changed during the pandemic. Great experience!! Thank you for your wonderful work and always welcoming atmosphere in your shop. You are the sweetest! I will send you some more pictures in the mail :)If you need alterations- look no further than Mila!!!

Mila did a fantastic job on my wedding dress alterations! She is very thorough and her prices are the best I found. She clearly cares so much about what she does. I felt very safe coming to her shop during a pandemic as she only allowed one person in at a time, which also made the experience even more personalized. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for wedding dress alterations!

Milavi did a wonderful job and was very kind to work with! I needed to have my bridesmaid dress altered, and she had it ready for me within a month. As for Covid protocol, I felt very safe in her store because she only allows one customer in at a time. The price was very affordable, and I knew I was not getting overcharged in any way. I have a lot of weddings coming up, and I plan to use her whenever I need something altered!

Words cannot express how grateful I am that Mila was recommended to me for alterations on my wedding gown—which was no easy feat! (All lace and many sizes too big) Mila worked countless hours and months to shorten the gown from the waistline and remove all the lace and hand stitch it back on. The end result was perfection. She is truly professional and an expert at her craft! Also, the bustle she created was absolutely gorgeous. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience working with Mila over these past almost two years since I had to postpone my big day due to Covid-19. She was supportive throughout the whole process, explaining the steps with each fitting. Mila is a true master at what she does and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for top quality alteration services.

My husband needed his suit altered for our daughters wedding. He lost a lot of weight and we were concerned that he needed a new suit. Milavi did a beautiful job. She eased our concerns right away. Milavi completed the alterations as promised. My husband was thrilled with the final product. We would highly recommend her services.

Mila is an artist!! I used her for my wedding gown alterations (drove an hour from NY every time and it was so worth it)— not only does my gown looks like it was made for me, but the quality of work is impeccable! She takes pride in her work and it shows! She designed my bustle and perfectly brought it to life! I cannot tell you enough how talented, professional, and easy to work with she is! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mila! I cannot wait to wear my dress on my wedding day!! I will definitely be back for future alterations!

If I could give Mila 10 stars I would! She did alterations on my daughters wedding gown and her sisters maid of honor gown. The wedding gown had many alterations which Mila did with such skill, you cannot tell the gown was altered in any way! She was patient with both of my daughters and even took the time to give us bustling lessons! I highly recommend Mila!!

Mila did a fabulous job on the alterations to my mother of the groom dress. The dress was very full and needed hemming as well as alterations to the bodice. She even removed fabric from under the sleeve area that was too snug once the straps were shortened. She has a very good eye and her work is top notch! I would highly recommend her to all!

Mila was amazing to work with. She has done alternations on two of my gowns, one being my wedding dress. I am very petite, and she was able to alter my very delicate, lace and beaded wedding dress to fit me perfectly. It was like the dress was made for me- no one could tell I had to buy it two sizes too big! She truely delivers high quality work. She was also honest about the amount of work my dress required, and didn’t increase her price when she realized we needed an extra fitting than originally planned. I appreciated her honesty; she is always realistic about what alterations can be done, and what can be done within the time frame. I completely trust her and would recommend her to everyone!!!

Milavi went above and beyond! I first brought in a dress that was too big and ultimately I decided to get a different dress because it would have been too many alterations. She was honest and helpful! Once I found a new dress she made it fit perfectly! She also altered my husbands suit. We are both so happy with the alterations. Thank you for everything!

I just wanted to give a 5 star review on my bridal gown alterations. I went there in 2020 to have my gown altered and Mila was responsive and quick! COVID then hit and i had to move my wedding numerous times to which Mila was understanding. Mila kept my dress safe at her store and was accommodating with the change. Fast forward a YEAR later (and a few pounds) Mila was able to RE-alter my dress and have it fit PERFECTLY. Mila never complained or made me feel guilty. She was always caring about how i felt and accommodated my crazy work schedule. I picked up my dress yesterday and it was STUNNING. The length, Bustle and fit were perfect and I could not be happier. I recommend anyone who needs a wedding dress or any dress altered, this should be your first call! Thank you for everything!

Mila was truly incredible to work with. Denise from Persnickety Bride recommenced Mila to me, and I feel so blessed to have Mila work on my wedding dress. She was always accommodating when scheduling appointments and was extremely professional when there. She paid attention to every single detail, including the beading on the back of my dress. At my second fitting she could tell something was bothering me (it was the puffiness). When I went back for my third fitting something looked different...she steamed the Kremlin. At my last fitting I was beaming. Thank you Mila! She was a pleasure to work with and I recommend her to anyone looking for dress alterations!

Alterations and Design Milavi is incredible and professional place to do any alternation.Mila helped our business to keep going during the worst timing by making masks for us and our customers. Because of her knowledge, big heart, her love to what she does saved a lot of people. She donated so many masks to nursing homes, hospitals to places where they were needed the most and at the same time a lot of business like us were able to stay open and employees and customers staying healthy.We would recommend Milavi to everyone who is looking for a QUALITY and PERFECT alternation. Theres nothing can be done more perfect than alternation done by Mila at the Alterations And Design Milavi.

Mila is a saint. Not only is she a talented seamstress, but she has a heart of gold.Mila transformed my hand beaded/full lace Justin Alexander gown. I purchased my gown in a petite size, but it apparently meant it was a “petite” from the waist down. Mila removed about 6inches of lace from a very detailed chest/neckline. Once removed she then HAND beaded the crystals back onto the dress. She meticulously followed the pictures she took and when it was all completed I was in awe. The dress was PERFECT!I am so happy that she was recommended because I whole heartedly believe that if I had taken my gown elsewhere that the result would have been grim.Mila- thank you so much for all the extra work you put into making my gown perfect. Your work is truly stunning ❤️

Mila is the best. She is a master tailor who knows exactly how to make you look amazing in whatever you bring her to alter or repair. Her skills are unmatched. Most recently, Mila altered my wedding suit also well as a sport coat and a pair of trousers for the rehearsal dinner. She made sure I looked my best on such important days. Mila also did the alterations for one of my groomsmen. I would trust her to get it right everytime.

I brought my “Mother of the Bride” gown to Milavi to be shortened. I was afraid that since it had a scalloped lace bottom she would tell me I just had to get high heels. Luckily for me that was not her answer. She skillfully removed the lace, shortened the lining and the lace overlay and then reattached the scallop bottom. It came out perfect! She also could tell that the shoulders needed a slight adjustment and now my dress looks like it was made just for me!!! I am so glad I found her-she is professional and talented !

I found Milavi on google and reached out to her because of all the customer reviews she has and I’m so THANKFUL I did! I ordered a dress last minute for a wedding and needed it altered with a few adjustments since it was really long, the slit was too low, and it was falling off my shoulders a tad. I also needed it picked up in a two day span...When I picked the dress up and tried it on she did just that and more. She made the dress look beautiful! Her work is quality and I will most definitely recommend her. Thank you again Milavi!!!

Do yourself a favor and go to Mila for all of your alteration needs. Mila altered my wedding dress and I cant say enough wonderful things about my experience with her. I live in Rhode Island and chose to work with Mila (over 2 hours each way) because she is the best there is. My dress required very complicated alterations (beading and lace work) and I approached her only 2 months before my wedding date. She completed the job in record time and the end result was perfect.

I was very happy I came across Mila and chose to have her alter my wedding dress. I had scheduled my appointment shortly before everything shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so we werent able to keep our original plan for my 1st fitting. Mila kept in touch with me and assured me that as soon as she was able to open, she would get my dress done for me...and she did exactly that.During our 1st appointment she had me try on the dress and went over everything that she thought needed to be done in order to make the dress fit like it was custom made for me. I didnt feel any pressure or feel like she was trying to sell me on more work than what needed to be done. I had to have the whole dress shortened (5 layers of lining and tulle), shorten the straps (which required her to work by hand as it was very intricate appliques and buttons on the shoulder), and sewing in bra cups since the illusion mesh of the back of the dress was low. She is extremely efficient and you can tell she takes pride in what she does. Between my 1st appointment and when I actually picked up my dress, the turnaround was less than 2 weeks! I was so thankful she could get me in and have everything completed in time, especially with the time crunch that the pandemic created. Thank you, Mila. If I ever have any other alteration needs I will most certainly be back to see you!

Review №60

I made 2 appointments here for alterations for my wedding gown. My wedding is in 2 weeks. The first time the dress ordered arrived 2 small after waiting 6 weeks for it to arrive. 4 1/2 weeks before my wedding this designer told me she could not do what I was asking her to do. My grandmother is a seamstress and I knew that what I was asking for could be done but it was clear that Milavi wasnt willing to do what I asked and led me to believe that the entire dress would have to be reconstructed. I was so nervous when I left that I purchased another dress. The dress just got here and it fits great!...but not exactly what I want for my wedding day. Today I went to Milavi again strictly because she has such good reviews. Again today it was clear that she just did not want to help me. Again she offered something other than what I wanted. This time she told me what she could do to save me money, like I would go cheap with my wedding gown alterations. Honestly I really wanted to give this place a good review, but she simply did not want my patronage. However when pulling out of Milavis parking lot I found KARLENE LINDSAY DESIGNS 429 CAMPBELL AVE WEST HAVEN CT. Immediately upon calling the vibe was entirely different than Milavi. Not only was she pleasant and helpful she knew exactly what I wanted and had no problem accepting the challenge...and I was literally floored by how reasonably priced Karlene is! Be forewarned, Milavis service is not all it has cracked up to be!

If you are looking for perfection look no further. By far the most professional person to work with that cares about every little detail. If you give her a chance you will not be disappointed in fact one chance is all she needs and you will be hooked with the professional outcome.

Due to COVID-19 i was unable to get my bridesmaid dress fitted for a wedding July 5th. I scheduled an appointment with Mila to see if she would be able alter my dress within a small time frame. Upon meeting Mila she was very sweet and made me feel extremely comfortable, assuring me that the dress would be ready in time for the wedding. In fact, Mila had my dress done in just two weeks and it fit perfectly when i picked it up. The dress originally was huge on me with zero structure to it, Mila shortened the length and added in cups. The end product looked like the dress was literally made to fit my body I was so impressed! Ive had bridesmaid dresses altered before by other tailors but they never fit this well, I will absolutely be back for any future alteration needs! Mila previously expressed to me she has been a tailor for most of her life, which started off as a hobby when she was younger but ended up becoming her own full time business, she even worked for Kleinfeld in the past and it definitely shows in her skills. Highly recommend!!

Milavi was amazing. I had to special order a suite for a wedding online. Needless to say I received it less than a week before I had to be on a flight for the wedding and it was a train wreck. She not only had to rebuild both sleeves of the jacket but lengthen the pants. She did an amazing job in just a couple days. And her prices were even better. I expected to pay at least double. She truly is a master at what she does.

I could not be happier! Mila was attentive to my needs and hemmed a wide ballgown (a little higher in front) so that I would feel comfortable with yards and yards of fabric!

Mila was outstanding and so wonderful to work with- such a sweet and caring person who puts a lot of thought and energy into making you feel beautiful about yourself! My bridesmaids dress was at least two sizes too big, Mila not only tailored my dress to perfection, she also took the time to replace the bulky zipper on the dress to make it not stand out. I can’t say enough of how much I loved working with her and would recommend her to anyone looking to get anything you need tailored!

I highly recommend Mila for anyone interested in having their clothes altered. I had two Indian gowns that were several sizes too big, uneven, and poorly constructed. Mila had to take the gowns in on several sides and even had to reconstruct one gown. In the end, they looked and fit perfect, as if they were custom made for me. Thank you for such meticulous work!!

What a great experience for my young skater. Mila altered a dress for my daughter for a figure skating show. We had a sugar plum fairy ballet dress (which was traditionally longer), but needed one for figure skater. Mila did an amazing job transforming the dress in a very efficient way. I recommend Mila’s services for any special events, including performance attire. Thank you again, Mila!!

Mila listened to my personal needs, I am very picky and precise about the fit of my clothing and suits.She did just what I asked her to do. She is proffessional, courteous, and provided services in a timely manner.I will be returning for all of my tailoring needs, and recommend her to anyone else that may have need of a tailor.

I picked up my future daughter in law’s wedding dress 3 days ago and it is magnificent. A beautiful, multi layered gown, with a very intricately, heavily beaded bodice. We knew the dress had to be taken in at the bodice and were very nervous about the beading. We need not have been. Mila took every tiny bead, pearl, sequin off with great care and did a beautiful job fitting the dress for the bride. when the dress fit, the length of the multiple layers perfect, and the bustle created, Mila spent 10 hours replacing each and every bead along the side bodice seams individually. One would never know this dress was altered. It is perfect.For Mila, It truly is a labor of love and a work of art.To know Mila is to be immediately put at ease by her warm, yet professional demeanor. Having had previous experiences with my 2 daughters at Kleinfelds and Vera Wang in NYC, There is no comparison. Mila is the best.We are so grateful that Denise at Persnickety Bride introduced us to Mila to work on this dress.

If you really want to look good in a suit, you must visit Master Tailor Mila at Alterations and Design Milavi. I had a suit sized 46 where the sleeves needed to be lengthened about 2 inches, and the pants were size 40, but my waist is 36. She did an amazing job and after her alteration my suit looks like it was made for me. Thanks Mila, I will be back with more alterations for you.

Mila is the absolute best! I found her shop in a rush, and she never made me feel like a bother, and truly cared to help me with my dress alterations. I came in her shop pregnant with a bridesmaid dress needing quite a bit of altering as the baby was being born 5 days before the wedding. Mila insisted on bringing the dress back to her when i got out of the hospital for correct alterations. I literally got discharged after my csection and went to her shop. She was so accommodating given my situation and had me rest, sitting often to properly fit the dress. The dress was done in less than 2 days and fit perfectly! Mila is amazing!! She went totally above and beyond and these little things truly made a difference in my days after giving birth and i truly appreciated it. I will use Alterations and Design for everything going forward. Amazing place, amazing woman!

Was quoted $18 to hem the leg length, 1in on a pair of brand new Levi Jeans. Called my go to dry cleaner and they are charging me half the price $9. To much wasted time

Make sure to ask for prices before you make the trip. She tried to charge me $175 to shorten a dress, and then was pushy and rude in justifying that price.
