Krystyna’s Tailoring

I am so thankful for Krystyna! One of the bridesmaids of the wedding I’m in recommended this place since she got her wedding gown altered here. We all received our dresses only 2 weeks prior to the wedding day, so we needed our dressed altered pronto.
Krystyna’s house is beautiful, and she has a separate area for her business (entrance to the left side of the house). I had to bring my 2-​year-​old daughter and I was so nervous about that since some businesses get annoyed with children. Krystyna immediately got excited to see my daughter! She made sure she was comfortable and even gave her a lollipop to keep her busy while I changed and got my dress altered. I was in and out in 20 minutes which was amazing! When she told me the total, I was beyond thrilled since it was affordable. I’ll only be coming here for alterations from now on! I highly recommend it!

Being a bit of a procrastinator, I had a bridesmaid dress that needed to be hemmed and fitted in less than two weeks. Krystyna was awesome! She was welcoming and efficient. Her price was very reasonable and the work she did was exceptional. I will be returning to her for all of my tailoring needs!
As someone else noted: park in the circular driveway (on the East side of Yackley Ave.) and enter at the side door on the left side of the house. She works Wednesday & Saturday from 9 – 1, I would call and give her a heads up that you’re coming.

I have known Krystyna since long before she built this house and opened. When I had asked her about reviewing her on Unilocal,she declined. I have to think others didn’t ask.
Now, I am the duchess here !!
Depending on the season, i.e. weddings, proms, homecomings, you may have to wait a longer time frame for your tailored items, but job is always well done.
Go to the side entrance, I can’t tell you how many people ring her front doorbell. Also, the driveway is designed to handle traffic in both directions. Stay to the right and pull forward and that way you will not block anyone in. I have had to go back in to ask people to move their cars, it shouldn’t be that hard.

Krystyna hemmed and took in my wedding dress on short notice. Quick turnaround time, fair prices, and beautiful work! I will definitely be returning to her in the future.

Krystyna is excellent, she has a relatively quick turnaround and her skill is superb. She is slightly higher in price than some other tailors, but is still fairly priced. I’ve had numerous alterations by her and have never had a problem. Definitely recommend.

I was just there and had my wedding dress altered. All I wanted was for it to be hemmed, taken in a little on the top and for 2 loose beads to be fixed. Well the hem was great the top was taken in way too much so now i have horrible armpit fat bulging out, and the beads weren’t even touched, actually more beads were missing. So if you need your dress altered don’t go there. A simple hem she can do.
And just to justify myself I don’t have a large gown it’s very very simple, not a ball gown or anything fancy just a long white dress with beading along the top. More for a beach wedding.

Krystyna is one of the best for alterations. She has helped our entire family with dresses, men’s suits, sweater repairs, everything! She is very fair in her pricing and if you need it rush, she will do her best to get it done.

I’ve been to Krystyna several times and have sent friends her way. Her prices are fair, she does a great job, but sometimes it takes a little longer than I’d like. However, she has also hemmed a dress and had it back to me within 24 hours! Give her a try!

I used Krystyna to fix a holiday party dress for me. She is great and did wonderful work, for a reasonable cost compaired to a cleaners and fast turn around time. She works part time for Nordstrom’s and part time out of her house. She has turned part of her house into her own shop with changing area, mirrors and platform like in a bridal salon. I will definately go back to her again :-)

I brought my Alfred Angelo Disney wedding dress (it was style Belle) to Krystyna for alterations. She took 2 inches in from the waist (even with the intricate beadwork), hemmed multiple layers of tulle, and added a beautiful 5 point bustle. Her work is stunning and her prices are more than reasonable! She works out of her home in Lisle, and her office is an attachment on the side of the house. It is almost completely separate from her home, and even has its own cute little doorbell.
I’d recommend her to anyone. She also altered my rehearsal dinner dress beautifully. The next time I need to have any work done on a dress or something I cherish, I will be going back to Krystyna.
