In Need of a Good Tailor for Bridesmaid Dress Alterations

Hi Lakewood Community,

I know this isn't what posts on this site are usually about, but I could really use some help identifying a good tailor in Lakewood who can do alterations on a bridesmaid dress for a January wedding (I realize I am sort of waiting until the last minute!).

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. This just isn't something I want to pick out of a phone book and would prefer recommendations of places you have used before for a nice gown such as this.

Thank you.

good tailor

Lucy at the Rocky River Geiger's is excellent and she does outside alterations.
Bobby Lynn (sp?) tailoring behind Rozi's is another one.

I can't think of her name but she sits in the building on the corner of Lincoln and Madison next to the credit union and accountant and she does tailoring and custom drapes-I know people drive from the East side for her. She is sweet and affordable and comes highly recommended.

I recently had a rain coat with a lining altered at the place on Madison Ave. It used to be called the European Tailor...maybe it's the same name now. The woman there did a great job and I remember that it was not too expensive. It's in the same block as Elmwood Bakery.
