    I like the gold buttons, but they may be a twitch too big. It also seems like she caused the front to pucker funny.
    The white dress looks fantastic.
    The yellow dress is too tight and she should have noticed that immediately when you tried it on and fixed it for you. You might consider going back and asking her to fix the yellow dress especially if it is pinching you under the arms now.

    this was a great video. i always love seeing before after alterations!! those prices were realllly good. i think she should have fixed the yellow dress, the puckering. i am surprised she let you leave like that.
    so ive had a similar experience. ive gone 3x in the past decade (i know not a good sample size) but ive always been super disappointed. i even had a bridesmaid dress altered for a wedding i was in and they left the hem 8 inches longer!! and i didnt have time to get it fixed. ive decided now that i will go if i find someone that comes highly recommended. otherwise, it's never worth it. the clothes look worse imo. id love to find a great tailor near me but until i do, i'm just making do with off the rack stuff. i have heard good things about nordstorms alterations and i believe they will take things even not from nordstrom. but for my bigger purchase they are high on my mind since they will do basic alterations for free and cover you if they come out like crap. also i agree on the buttons, they look so close to the edge!

      Thank you for sharing! It was a weird experience. She didn't seem to care if I tried it on or just picked them up and left, so I didn't even come out of the dressing room, but I should've. So that part is on me.
      Sounds like we've had similar experiences! I really thought getting alterations could only improve the clothes, but I agree, that definitely does not seem to be the case. I've gotten a better fit doing it myself. It just doesn't look as nice on the inside. Maybe we need to go to bigger, fancier cities for the better tailors? Who knows. I guess the search continues for both of us. I have no idea what to do about the button thing. I might as well try moving them myself at this point.

    I think your alteration experience is not a good one. I prefer silver over gold, so you can guess my opinion about the buttons 😉 Lay that jacket out next to another jacket that you love and compare how the buttons are placed. That might help. Lastly, try another alteration/seamstress(er) until you find someone who blows you away and meets your expectations. 😊
