The employees and management are so kind and the quality of work is wonderful. I brought my daughter with me while I got some britches and a shirt altered, they were very hospitable and kind to her. Cutting jokes and making her laugh. You guys are terrific and I appreciate your work.

Kathryn Alves-Labore

She altered my daughter's prom dress. It came out PERFECTLY at a fair price. This was a complicated dress that had to be taken in at teh waist and hemmed. It was lace over satin. Theh dress tirned out gorgeous and she was friendly and helpful. She is straightforward. She asked lots of questions to be sure we were goingto get what we wanted. She laid out the cost and timing. She was very repsectful and professional.

Elizabeth Campbell

This establishment is awesome! They have been in business for 16 years and you can tell. I had to have an expensive dress taken out and not only was it affordable but they also did it within two days! I highly recommend them over any other alteration business in town. 100% satisfied customer here!!!

Melissa Maddry

Such a wonderful business. Very friendly staff and service. Took my wedding dress for alterations and it was SUPERB!! They told me 3 weeks maybe to get it done due to the detail however they finished 2 weeks early and it was a perfect fit!! Thank you so very much!!

Herbert Prizer

Unbelievable! A asked to have a throw pillow cover made out of a sweatshirt. They said they could do it and that it would be ready in a week, even though I told them there was no rush. They called me a few HOURS later and said it was ready! It is beautiful, and crafted excellently. 5 STARS!!

Maryanne McGrath

Earlier this week, I brought in a favorite pair of jeans with an inseam much too long for me. She made sure I was happy with the length where she would be hemming them and they were ready later that day. The seamstress was so kind and did a beautiful job with the hem.

Kathy Berry

Excellent work, a little expensive but happy with the service

Scott Carter

I took uniform pants to Magdalens and paid a significant amount for the alterations, but she barely altered them. She just shrugged her shoulders, as these weren't a common item and pattern. This establishment is probably good for wedding dresses. I will not be going back for suit or costume alterations. If you have anything out of the ordinary whatsoever, do not consider this place. They aren't particularly friendly either. They might consider turning off the constant Contemporary Christian music they play in there. It doesn't suit them.

Shannon Heyman

She did a beautiful job last year tailoring my daughter's prom dress. We will be back in the next week for this year's prom dress. It seems a bit expensive to me but the quality of work is excellent.

Julie Abelson

Friendly staff. They got the job done

Sara Gravitt

Very nice folk at this shop and very high quality work. I will definitely return when I have a need for alterations.

Royda Turman

I will never go anywhere else. Professional, quick, friendly and excellent work!!!

M Swen

I couldn’t be happier! The staff was friendly, the tailor did a wonderful job, and the work was done in a matter of hours (yes, you read that right!!!). It wasn’t an easy request either. It was a mother of the bride dress that had 4 delicate layers in the skirt. I wanted 5 layers to make it knee length, so I brought the tailor two dresses and asked her to perform magic by sewing one layer onto the other and matching up the seam so nobody would know it had been altered. She did! And she did it fast! I was expecting a few days to a week which I was thrilled about...what a surprise to have such quality work done just a couple hours after I left!!!

Michael C. Crooks

Outstanding customer service!!! Quality work with reasonable prices and they were fast. A pleasure to find a business with such qualities! Bring your work here, you won't be sorry.

Luci Driscoll

Teresa is wonderful at Magdalen's Alterations....always ready when she promises or before....have recommended her to family and friends.

Ricquell Cooper

Horrid ! I was MORTIFIED about the general DISRESPECT I received when I called to inquire about having custom tablecloths made for our company's corporate event. I asked her how much fabric would I need and how soon she could have the tablecloths ready. She told me that she was busy and did not have time to answer my questions. I then informed her that I was trying to patron her business. She then exclaimed "UH No I DONT NEED YOUR BUSINESS," and proceeded to hang up. I would never recommend a company that is blatantly DISRESPECTFUL for the general public with NO REGARD for professionalism, manners nor courtesy. I am truly disgusted !

Braghadheeswar Thyagarajan

Amazing service and very nice people. They were able to accommodate me towards closing time and delivered my altered pants within one day. Exceptional quality !!

Tara Kay Johnson

This was my first time here and went by word of mouth -- Great experience overall! I had to get a floor-length bridesmaids dress shortened, have the shoulder straps taken in and the zipper replaced. They did a beautiful job, were very nice to work with, and were very reasonable in pricing! Highly recommended!

Pamela Hall

Was so thankful to find these ladies! After traveling a good distance they were able to hem my pants and fix a top in record time so I could return home. Both look great! Same day service. Thank you!

Nancy Boynton

Professional, proficient work both in alterations and construction. I was very pleased.

Aldona Towner

Exceptional craftmanship and attention to detail. Fast turn around. Friendly. Very professional. Honest recommendations if there is a question about whether to alter clothing.

Joshua Spencer

Magdalen's altered my Army service uniform perfectly, and in half the time promised. I'll definitely be back.

Ron Berry

Very gracious and hospitable owners. Over 20 years in this location. Cash only. Excellent alterations.

Barbie Blandina

I have had several fantastic experiences with this tailor. My very first visit consisted of getting skirts re-hemmed. The work that they performed was great quality, affordable and very quick. Second visit was 3 sweaters that needed repair and they were finished the same day! Friendly staff too. I’m a big fan!

Mark Ryalls

Absolutely first class in alterations. I have been going to Magdalens for about 15 years and have been amazed at what she and her family can do with a piece of clothing that needed help. Thank you. You are exceptional in your profession.

Kathi Isenhour

She is absolutely the best!! I have been using her for years. She has altered everything from prom dresses and jeans for my girls to dresses for me. I recently needed a dress for my son’s wedding. Not only did she agree to look at my dress she stayed late and completed it that day because she was going on an extended vacation!!! Above and beyond!!!

Gregory Cartwright

I moved here from NYC, and the level of detail that they put fourth is of the highest standard. I feel the fees asked are completely just, with what is returned in craftsmanship. I have taken many things to be altered. The most recent a Irish Linen jacket. The reconstruction took this from a potato sack to a glove. Run don't walk.

Gary Turner

I received the best service here and they were so very nice. Most importantly, they did a fantastic job with my alteration.

Ginny Fulk

I took my new pants to be shortened & was very happy with the result. Price was inexpensive & I would take any work I needed done back there again. Lovely lady.

Jesse Carr

Magdalen altered a pair of pants for me and a dress for my wife - both fit perfectly & done so quickly! Thanks Magdalen!

Charzilla FPV

Very friendly and helpful. I just picked up my wedding dress after being altered. Only one fitting and my dress fits perfect. I will definitely bring my business here next time I need any alterations.

LaQuisha Perry

Magdalen and her husband are an excellent team. I recently had my wedding dress altered to fit my top-heavy body. They did exceptional work. I could not have asked for a better fitting dress. I danced all night in my strapless dress, and it did not budge. Sometimes brides are always having to pull their dresses up when moving around. I did not have to adjust mine all night. I will definitely use their services again. The customer service was the best I've seen in this town.

Great Service

rae personett

Outstanding work! Friendly ladies! It was a pleasant experience! And fast service with quality work !

Amber Gabel

The lady's here did an excellent job, and they are super friendly too! I needed my bridesmaid dress for my best friend's wedding altered around the top (strapless) and the dress shortened because it was a good 6+ inches too long (I'm 5'1"), and on very short notice. Not only did these women get me in there quickly, get the dress fitted for me perfectly and get the dress back to me with a few days to spare, but they did it at a fair price too! I cannot say enough good things about Magdalen's, they saved my life by fixing my dress so fast (and perfectly!) because I let June sneak up on me. If anybody asks me where to get something tailored around here, I will definitely suggest they use Magdalen's!

Brian So

You can see the experience at work on every alteration!

Pamela Howland

This is THE place to go for alterations in Winston-Salem. Magdalen's delivers expert service efficiently, beautifully, quickly, and with great customer service. From simple hems to complex alterations Magdalen's is one of Winston-Salem's best kept secrets - but now you know! 5 STARS!

Jack Porterfield

They do a great job

David Sparks

It's Yeboii

They were friendly and did a great job on a couple last-minute alterations I needed. Their prices are reasonable, too. I'll gladly come back for any alteration needs!

Judy Breakstone

What’s not to like! Fast, friendly professional!

Clark Wilson

Best alterations in the area. My family has been using Magdalen for years and she recently altered my wedding gown over the course of several months. She and her team did an amazing job, we didn’t trust anyone else to put as much care into the work as she did!

Dallas Weaver

They did a great job on my Suits.

Terry Marcum

Excellent service. Very quick. What I thought would take a month only took 3 days. Very friendly and professional. The work is exquisite!! Remember to take cash for payment. They repaired an item that no one else would touch. I can't say enough good things!!

Jordan Leonard

Asked them to put new rank on my military uniforms. Asked them to have it done in a week and it was done the right way the next day. Couldn't be happier, will use them again.

Preston Binkley

Great turnaround times and fantastic work. Any time I’ve had them fix something the stitching is better than it was originally. Pretty good prices too.

Kaitlyn A.

Perfect experience! These ladies are super friendly and master tailors! My bridesmaid’s dress was tailored perfectly and done within a short amount of time! I will be back :)

Floyd Baldo

My wife took my pants there, 7 pair at least, to have the lower legs tapered. The first time she took two pair and gave detailed instructions to make sure they do it right. They did well. The second time, my wife asked them to do the next 5-6 pair exactly like the first two...in detail once again. Once we picked them up we found they shortened the 5-6 pair but failed to taper them. They were taken back and were corrected a few days later...except one pair, which were exactly the same - not tapered. Now we have to go there a fourth time to get one pair done right. My wife has already paid twice for work that hasn't been done! I have learned the Male worker there is very talented and his work is second to none. Problem is, the women can't even quote me the same price for the same alteration. The employees are very nice and I will change my review upon correction of my pants.

nathan stouffer

Very pleasant ladies work in there that offer good work at affordable prices. I had a pair of suit pants hemmed and suit coat worked on. The coat wasn't right from Men's Wearhouse and after the 1st try at fixing the shoulders the tailor said it need some more work. They didn't even charge me for making it right the second time!

Kaitlyn Johnson

My friend recommended Magdalen's because she has gotten stuff tailored there for years. I needed some minor alterations done to my wedding dress and I needed them done quick! They were super helpful and friendly. They were upfront about the cost and options, which I appreciated greatly. I had my dress dress done in a week - which was fantastic! They did a great job and I would recommend them.

Emily Blodinger

Quality work! They repaired my husbands leather jacket which had come unstitched! Very happy with the outcome, reasonable pricing and I had the coat back right on time! Highly recommend!

Jana Brown

Sweet ladies! They did a great job, reasonably priced and quick to finish their work!

Erica Moore

Magdalens alterations is absolutely WONDERFUL! I cannot run out of marvelous things to say about this business. The lady’s are super nice and completely flexible. I have taken both of my prom dresses to Magdalans and they did an EXCELLENT job on my gowns! I would recommend Magdalens to the whole state! The lady’s working there are very knowledgeable and can do anything you need done. Not only do they have great customer service but they have great expertise work:)

Michael Joyce

I purchased a suit for News Years and needed the "false" pocket to be opened. I thought a pocket needed to be created, but it just had to be opened. I didn't expect that she would open it for free. But she said, "no charge." Very happy with her kind service.
