Reviews of Katrina's Fashion Design And Alterations (Tailor)

Wayne Rorke

Excellent. Val was very helpful and they did a very professional job.

I was recommended this place by another store owner who couldn’t do my alteration in the time frame I needed. The owners did a great job shortening my bridesmaid dress BUT the price was extremely expensive. There was a miscommunication and I had thought I would be charged $38 for the alteration which I thought was reasonable for what I was asking for. When I arrived to pick up my dress they went to charge me $138. I simply would not have had them do the alteration if I had known how expensive it would be. My family sews but we don’t have a surger so we didn’t want to shorten the dress ourselves when we couldn’t finish the edges properly. I have had alterations done before elsewhere, I had a sari completely fitted and altered to my body and a head scarf made at the alterations store in the orchard park mall for around $70. Another member of the bridal party had her dress shortened at an alteration place on enterprise for $21. I just was absolutely horrified and in absolute shock at the price here, it cost much more than the dress itself, that I’ll also never wear again nor do I want/need to keep. Did great work on the dress, just a very unrealistic price for not a complicated or difficult alteration. If you have the money to spend, go there, if it’s a simply alteration and not your special day, try going to the mall or the shop on enterprise.

I dropped off a few pieces of clothing to be altered. The job was done quickly and I was honestly blown away at how amazing the clothing looked when I picked it up!! Price was so reasonable. Will definitely go back next time I need something stitched up

Just had my wedding dress altered. Katrina and her husband did a wonderful job. They were timely, patient and listened to my concerns. Would definitely recommend for any bride to have their dress altered here!

One of the most exciting days for a Mother is when her daughter gets married. You share the preparations for the upcoming event where the memories will last a lifetime! A very important part of that special day is the most beautiful gown! This is probably THE most important thing for the bride. It has to be perfect so she feels like the princess she truly is. My youngest daughter is getting married in August and she picked out a breathtakingly gorgeous gown. It required some slight alterations such as the tule being shortened and the zipper pull reattached. She has worked very hard to make sure she’s got everything ready in lots of time so there is no stress on her special day. She dropped off her dress on March 2nd!!! It was promised to be ready April 30th. I personally picked up the gown the first week in June!!! The owner and her husband greeted me and explained they got bombarded by the Grad rush. They offered no compensation. In the business world it is first come, first served! I don’t give a rats ass about Grad and how many dresses were requiring alterations!! My daughter was there first, with LOTS of time to properly do the alterations in a timely manner!! My daughters dress was butchered!! And is possibly not repairable!! I will make it my life mission to spread the word about the shoddy work that is done at Katrina’s Alterations!!! I would personally be embarrassed to charge the outrageous price she charged me if I put work out like that! My daughter is crushed!! Very disappointed Mother of the Bride!!

I've taken clothes to Katrina's on several occasions and I've been consistently impressed with their attention to detail, quality work, and pleasant manner. Katrina's is #1.

Great place. Quality of work is amazing and fair prices. Katrina always explains what she is going to do and why it is the best solution, also offer alternative ways to modify the garment so you pick what you think would work best. Definitely recommend!

It can be tough for me to get down while they're open but I'm never taking any of my clothes anywhere else again. My pants don't drag in puddles anymore!!

Excellent customer service and very talented seamstress. Even though my alterations were last minute they never made me feel like an inconvenience. Both her and her husband did what they could to have my dress done on time. I am very happy with my experience. Lots of parking out front as well.

They tailored 3 suits for me recently! They are a really nice family run business in West Kelowna. They have been there for a very long time. They did great work and i would be happy to bring my next suit back.

Cindy McGee

My daughter- in- law just picked up her dress after almost 3 months for a simple alteration to her wedding dress. Absolutely terrible hack job on the Tulle. No apology for it not being done in the agreed time frame and an absolute ridiculous price. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Thanks Katrina for ruining such an important day.

Kyra

Got my grad dress altered here! Very friendly service, and they were able to get the job done within a short time frame. They went above and beyond, not only altering the length, but fixing frayed threads in the back and steaming the dress as well. My dress was perfect for my grad, thank you Katrina!
