Best value for alterations in Manhattan!

Booking Marie at My Metro Fit for my bridal alterations was a great decision. As with most services in NYC, prices are often sky-high. Marie provided incredible, high quality alterations at a price that did not make my eyes pop out. My dress was ready right on schedule. The bustle was super secure and in no danger of coming loose, even as my train sucked up a bunch of rain water during the ceremony! Marie was so pleasant to work with as well, I really enjoyed the handful of visits I had in her shop. Thanks, Marie, for the fabulous result!

Wonderful experience

Marie was able to work wonders on a sample dress I chose that was too big and looked a little worn. She was patient and listened to all of my concerns in trying to decide if it should be altered or if I should start over and find a new dress. She made the dress to look brand new and fit as though it was custom made for me. Any worn or slightly damaged areas in the lace were completely fixed by her. She also custom made a veil to match. She will work with you until it’s exactly how you want it and she’s reasonably priced for the intricate work that she is doing. I had plenty of time for alterations, but she works very quickly and will make accommodations if you are in a hurry. I also used her services for a formal event I attended last year and thought of her immediately to work on my wedding gown for me.

Excellent work

I found Marie based on the reviews here and a review with a photo of the same dress I had. Marie was so easy to work with and a clear expert in her work. She hemmed my dress to the exact length I wanted and was so sweet to think of saving the extra fabric so my mom can make a matching mask. Marie was absolutely wonderful (and great with my time range of alternations!) and I can't recommend her highly enough.

Meticulous, fast, warm

Marie removed the train from my wedding dress (opaline ballgown at bhldn), took it in, and added several details I wanted (decorative trim at the waist, french buttons). She worked very quickly without sacrificing quality - she is one of the most meticulous seamstresses I have ever met, going above and beyond what I expected in terms of attention to detail. For example, for the french buttons I wanted added on the back, she covered them with fabric from the leftover train to ensure a perfect match. Had she not offered to do this (and several other things), I would not have noticed. The fact that she did shows how much she cares about the dress turning out beautiful.
Marie was also very warm and friendly during all of our meetings, and respected my privacy when changing. She listened to my input and vision for the dress and used her expertise to make it a reality. Overall, I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for tailoring or custom made clothes. From what I can tell compared to other places I browsed before finding Marie, her prices are also extremely reasonable.

Blushing Bridesmaid

I had a wonderful time working with Marie to make alterations to my bridesmaid's dress. She was warm and responsive to all of my concerns and inquires in person and over text. I felt that my dress was more than safe in her very capable hands. I look forward to working with her again!

Highly skilled perfectionist-- amazing experience!

Marie works magic!! I fell in love and purchased a sample dress that had significant damage (torn mesh, broken lace, missing beading/appliques/embellishments); I was worried the dress would be unrepairable. That is, until I found Marie!
Marie was so kind and professional throughout. She somehow repaired the extensive damage and made the dress even more beautiful. She found areas that I hadn't noticed that could be improved and altered the dress to fit my body like a glove. I've had many dresses altered before, but Marie took the extra steps to make sure the fit was absolutely perfect!
The material of the dress was extremely delicate and difficult to work with, but when Marie was done, I couldn't tell where the damage was to begin with (see photo above for damage before and after). She was able to finish all the alterations quickly and was so easy to communicate with.
She truly is a master at her craft, meticulous, and so sweet. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my gown with anyone else!

Marie is a pro! So fast, so find, and so careful with her work!

I cannot say enough good things about My Metro Fit. Marie is so talented and can do alterations lightning fast! I gave her my wedding dress a week ago. And with 30 days out til my wedding, she assured me she would have it done. Within 7 days, she had it finished and it was done PERFECTLY. She even went out of her way to find a piece of lace on the bottom of the dress and attach it to the top to add coverage. She is a miracle worker, and she is so kind! Cannot recommend enough!

Marie is amazing!

Marie did an amazing job! My wedding dress was a delicate lace and at least 2 sizes too big. She made it fit perfectly and added a bustle, all for a much better price than anyone else had quoted me. Marie is so sweet, super responsive and flexible for appointment times. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Marie!!

Best Experience Ever!

Marie is amazing! I needed to have sleeves added and the neckline altered for a church ceremony. I honestly don’t know how she did it, but she managed to remove a ruffle and piece together the lace for sleeves - it turned out beautifully!

From the moment I emailed her, Marie was incredibly responsive. She also was super fast, detail-oriented and very helpful. I had a few dresses and she talked me through what was possible with each one. OVerall, a great experience. Highligh recommend!!!
