Tailor/seamstress recs?

I'm looking for a great tailor in the Lewisville, Flower Mound, Grapevine, Coppell, or Las Colinas areas.  We used to go to Unique Tailor on Mockingbird, but it's just too far for us... and I don't think they're all that great anyway.  Someone who is good at mens and womens tailoring would be great.

Any recs would be awesome!

Re: Tailor/seamstress recs?

  • Ok... so I guess no one knows a good tailor in those areas.  How about North Dallas?  Southlake?  Anywhere?

  • There is one in Southlake that I've used before and was very happy with - just can't remember the name right now. I have no idea how that shop is with men's clothing - I've had a couple of dresses and pants altered. I remember the price being very reasonable, too.

    It's on 1709 (Southlake Blvd) and White Chapel - right next to Tom Thumb. I'll try to remember to look at the name on my way home tonight.

  • I don't get many things tailored, but I have had good luck in the past w/ Atelier in Plano.  (Probably the ONE city you didn't mention.)  :)  But fwiw:

  • I like Sun Tailor on Glade Rd in Euless/Grapevine. It is in the same shopping plaza as Target. They are really friendly and get stuff done fast. There are several Sun Tailors but they aren't all the same company.
  • I go to Cho's Tailor in the Southlake Town Square next to Banana Republic. I love him!! I get so much stuff tailored there. I even liked him so much that he did my silk wedding dress and my DH's linen suit. He doesn't even specialize in wedding alterations, but he did an awesome job. He's really fast and has great prices too.
  • I highly suggest a woman named Becky Fowler. She works out of her home, does an amazing job and is the sweetest woman every. She is in Irving...just south of Las Colinas. Her e-mail is beckyfowler1@tx.rr.com and her number is 972-986-8067. She altered my wedding dress from 3 sizes too big to fitted.
  • I actually went to Becky Fowler for my wedding dress, but I didn't know if she did other things (men's pants/suits, etc).

    Thanks for the recs everyone!
