Customer reviews

Kind words from Zara's customers.

Experiences shared by Zara's Alterations customers on Google. Every garment and project is different, and completion timing is discussed after Zara assesses the work.

I recently went to Zara and was very impressed! She took the time to really understand what I wanted to have altered, explained her process and what she was able to do. When I went to pick up my pieces, I was floored - not only had she finished the alterations in a week, but they were seamless and absolutely exceeded my expectations.

I needed to get a suit altered and found Zara's on Google. Initially I thought I just needed the waist on the jacket and pants to come in a bit, but she advised that it would not look right. She also took in the legs and sleeves widths to make it look right. I was nervous about the magnitude of the changes, but she did an amazing job!

Zara did an amazing job replacing the entire zipper mechanism on my winter coat. A zipper repair wasn't possible because two of the teeth along the zipper track had also broken off. My zipper is now functioning better than it ever was.
