Prestige Tailoring

I was a little skeptical since my blazer wasn’t made here but I went in here anyways. Small store on Colvin. The owner is the tailor. He is italian and has a pretty good idea what he is doing. The turn around time to get my suit blazer altered was less than 5 business days which is really good! Pretty nomial on charges as well. To get my alterations cost me $ 25.
The only downside is that the guy is a little condescending in his tone while you explain what you want to get done. He tried to give in his «expert» input but since you’re paying you might as well get your way. I had to be a little stern with what I wanted done but I’m overall happy with the blazer fit. Excited to wear the suit now!

After I purchased my wedding dress, I asked the store for a list of places that do wedding dress alterations. This was on the list.
I called to schedule and appointment and the man on the phone was very short with me. He asked when my wedding was and I told him. I tried to explain what I needed done, which was very simple. He cut me off and said «I have a customer at the door, I’ll call you back» (he also had a potential customer on the phone but lost that sale) He never returned my call
I ended up going to Maurice who did a fabulous job and had great customer service. I won’t come here.

I tried calling here to inquire about tailoring for a wedding gown. The person I spoke with (did not give a name) was very short with me, did not offer any guidance or suggestions to my problem. I was disappointed after reading all of the great reviews on Unilocal

This place was a godsend. We had been to three tailors before coming to Prestige. Basically we were told that they could not or would not do the alterations to my wedding dress, which was extremely frustrating knowing that these were professionals.
However after all of the frustration we ended up at Prestige, which was truly a blessing. I showed the owner my dress and explained what I was looking for, to which he replied, «yes, no problem… go put on the dress.» Not only did he show me exactly what he would do, but he was EXTREMELY knowledgable about tailoring wedding dresses. He cracked a few jokes, and had my mom and I walking out so relieved that we had found the most trusted tailor in Buffalo.
Do not waste your time at Leena’s or Maurices’s…head to Prestige!

I bought a coat with a faulty zipper (one of those «have to have it» moments). I searched for local tailors and found this shop. Simon is professional and honest. He gave me two options on how he could fix the zipper. Although slightly overpriced, his work is flawless and worth every penny. My coat was ready within two days and two years later the zipper is as strong as it’ll ever be.
I have sent friends and family, they too have been equally satisfied with his work.
Five stars!

Simon did a great job altering my beautiful lace wedding gown. He brought it up just enough, altered the sides, and put in a loop (instead of a bustle at his recommendation which looked great). He has an interesting sense of humor which I love. The price was very reasonable compared to what they normally charge in one of the dress shops. He pressed the dress before the wedding and it looked amazing. Would definitely recommend to a friend or family member.

Simon is the only actually competent tailor I’ve found in a 20 mile radius, and I don’t trust my clothes with anyone else. Before Prestige, I dumped hundreds of dollars on others with high Unilocal ratings or name recognition (Chayban, Maurice, etc.) and been amazed at their dismal failures. I brought in suits I’d had altered by other tailors and Simon immediately spotted problems – the same problems I’d noticed and brought up with those other tailors only to get a lot of hand-​waving and «it’s fine, it’s fine». Well, people, it wasn’t fine, and I lost a fairly expensive suit to shoddy work (and had to have Simon salvage others).
If you’re looking for a tailor, don’t even bother checking the reviews for others. Consider:
— Each trip I make to Prestige means almost half an hour of driving without traffic.
— Prices aren’t the cheapest around.
— No credit cards – only cash or check accepted.
— Simon is very matter-​of-​fact and not super charismatic, which can be intimidating for some. You’re going to get the truth, not a pat on the back to make you feel better about a garment that would be best thrown away or donated to charity.
— Wait times for consultations in the shop can be fairly lengthy (during my first visit I had to wait almost an hour to have Simon take a look at a jacket).
Still totally worth it. Still five stars.

Anytime I need tailoring, there is no question, I go to Simon at Prestige. Expert tailoring each and every time. I won’t go anywhere else.

I went to prestige to get my suit tailored. I’m a very easy going guy but the owner couldn’t have been any ruder when asking him simple questions about how long it would take and price. Okay whatever, I read good things and it’s close to my house. He said it would be done on a Tues. it wasn’t done until Wednesday that it was done and when the jacket didn’t fit right, it wasn’t until Thursday that I could wear it. He gave me 10 dollars off and didn’t destroy my suit so here’s two stars. Maybe I was a fluke, but I wouldn’t recommend it at all.

Great place. The owner does terrific work. Not cheap, but worth it.

This is absolutely the best place you can take your clothing for tailoring, alterations, and repairs. I took my favorite pair of GAP jeans in to have a tear repaired at the knee. The patchwork and stitching was done with surgical precision and is now barely noticeable. Amazing, I’d refer this small shop to anyone.

Overpriced tailoring job. I gave them my dress and expect it to be done in 2 weeks. When I picked it up I still had to wait for me to finish up. Go somewhere else for alternations.
