Mrs j did work for my bridesmaids drsss for my brothers wedding and also my wedding dress. Both times she was amazing and I didn’t not have an easy fix with the bridesmaids dress.

As a plus size bride I was overwhelmed and almost horrified at my vast selection of dresses, but nothing fit exactly what I wanted. I found a poofy dress that was the color and fabric that I liked but needed TONS of alterations and changes. A friend suggested Jan to me, and I will be forever grateful. She understands the body and knows how the fit should be. She also had some really cool outside the box ideas for additions to the dress that I had never thought of, or even seen on another dress before. She did an amazing job and I refer everyone I know to her! You can not only trust that she will make your garment fit you impeccably but also trusting her with “the dress” was never in question. Thank you for making my wedding dress dreams a reality Jan!As a plus size bride I was overwhelmed and almost horrified at my vast selection of dresses, but nothing fit exactly what I wanted.

My daughter had her wedding gown altered in St. Louis by a "reputable" seamstress who specializes in wedding gowns. The results were horrid! The front bodice turned out instead of lying flat to her chest. The hem was uneven and not trimmed or under-stitched. The bustle was awful! See pictures below- Jan to the rescue! Jan was able to redo all that was done without my daughter there to try it on. Beautiful results!! Also it was done within two weeks of the wedding!! Thanks, Jan

My daughter got married and lived out of town. Jan not only went out of her way to accommodate our schedule she even came out on an icy day. She did a wonderful job on the alterations as well as making a veil for her and cleaning her dress after the weeding. My daughter looked beautiful and was not worried about how her dress would turn out because she knew it was in good hands. I will go back to her for alterations anytime I need them. If you are looking for someone to help put your mind at ease go to Jan to have your alterations done. She is very reasonable and generous with her time.

Jan was an absolute pleasure to work with. Several people I know had gone to her for their alterations. She had to do quite a bit of work to my wedding dress based on a misrepresentation by the business where I purchased my dress (they said it could be let out enough to fit properly, but there wasn’t a lot of material to let out-essentially they sold me a dress that was a bit too small and led me to believe that it wouldn’t be a problem to alter). Jan did an amazing job on my dress, and the bustle held perfectly throughout the entire reception. She also made a veil for me that matched my dress. I highly recommend The Perfect Fit by JK!Jan was an absolute pleasure to work with. Several people I know had gone to her for their alterations.

My dress needed to be shortened by quite a bit and JK did a great job! My dress had three layers of tulle which required a lot of work to shorten and the final result was stunning! She was also very responsive to my emails and had a quick turn-a-round with the dress. I would definitely recommend!My dress needed to be shortened by quite a bit and JK did a great job!

I met Jan at one of the bridal shows in Springfield. She is very friendly and informative! She definitely knows her stuff! We had at least 4-5 face to face meetings over the course of a few months. She was always flexible with her timing as my schedule was not very convenient. I also had to bring along my rambunctious 4 year old & she has the patience of a saint! As for the alterations, Jan’s work is outstanding! She has to completely redo a bustle, previous alterations, & a TON of beading as my wedding dress I brought to her was bought used & worn by one previous bride. She also cleaned it before redoing the beading. I couldn’t tell it was dirty, but my dress sure did sparkle after her soak! The bustle was amazing!! My dress weighed every bit of 40lbs with the amount of beading on it and the bustle held up to that weight perfectly! I’m a pretty busty woman & my biggest concern was ensuring the “girls” were contained and secure in my strapless dress. Jan surely delivered, the dress fit like a glove! We had also bought a bridesmaid dress for my step daughter that needed alterations in less than a week! The company we bought it from, didn’t tell me that the delivery date would be mere days prior to our wedding. Jan got us in within days of the wedding to do a fitting and had the dress done in a day or two. It also fit perfectly! The entire process was simple and very comfortable. Jan does beautiful work and is absolutely amazing to work with!I met Jan at one of the bridal shows in Springfield. She is very friendly and informative! She definitely knows her stuff!

The perfect fit was a wonderful experience with quick turnaround. I felt very comfortable with Jan. She is a professional and it was obvious just by looking at the organization of her shop! I was told about the perfect fit through a friend, as a friend to you do yourself a favor and let Jan help make your wedding personal with the experience of supporting a local business.
