Central Coast Dressmaking & Alterations

She lost me as client due to her unprofessionalism. The shop is a total mess. Her turn around time is way over a week (I waited over 3 weeks) and as a result, simple instructions on cuffing/​hemming my new (and expensive) cargo pants came back all wrong. She did not follow simple directions and the pants were RUINED to the point that they were NEVER worn and were donated to Goodwill (thanks Linda). To add insult to injury, she charged me, didn’t apologize and continued to make excuses. «Wasn’t her fault, I should have given her better directions.» Are you kidding??? Linda simply cannot take responsibility for her mistakes. As a result, Fitting Image as gained a very happy and satisfied customer and we’ve never had silly issues like this. Every time I drive by Linda’s place, all I can think of is my bad experience there, I’m still disgusted with her for how poorly she handled the situation — that was 5 years ago. Glad there is Unilocal for situations like this.

Linda worked very hard to mend the tears on my dress. Her job was done with extra care and perfection. A very high level seamstress, who goes over and beyond the basics! And, exceptionally fair and reasonably priced. Also, she is extremely patient, courteous, and helpful. Highly recommend her expertly skilled tailoring services!

I took three pairs of pants in to get tear mended. She told me it would be a week. I came in three days later than a week, and she told me that there was a power outage for a day, and couldn’t get anything done. I gave her another week since I was headed out of town for the thanksgiving holiday. When I came back two pairs were done, but the last still needed some work done, and I left with it unfinished.
She does good work, but is terrible with time management. Don’t expect things to get done on time.

She is very knowledgeable and skilled. She was able to make my suit fit fantastic, and do what men’s wearhouse failed to do. Her shop is a little bit cluttered though.

I like the Owner, Linda Huszar a funny red head with a nice smile.
Her Shop is a total mess.
I took my sewing project to her, she said she could finish it in a week, however it was not ready when promised.
When I picked up my sewing project it did not fit properly.
Linda saw this and blamed the material. Like it’s my fault?
I paid for her sewing failure and had to take it somewhere else to re-​do.
I can not recommend her service.

I just dropped off my dress to be altered for a wedding in May. Lost some weight, but before that, the straps where a bad fit and needed to be altered. A few quick pins and a plan to alter in a couple spots around the bra area and I am positive my dress is going to look amazing!
She has a lot of projects going on and works a lot of hours altering peoples clothing. She does wedding and prom dresses and also everyday clothes.

She did an amazing job on the hem. The reason I give her 4 stars instead of 5 was that my clothes had pet hair everywhere, which can be a pain to get off. She did have to take my dress pants home to work on over the weekend so I’m not sure if there would be pet hair if the article of clothing stays in the shop. She could improve by using a lint brush or some other devise to remove the pet hair and give it a more polished presentation. She was reasonably priced and very friendly.
