Client Testimonials
“I had a great experience at Kaivy alteration studio! They were so experienced, thoughtful, and thorough. Price was good and my dress was done quickly! I put it on and the alterations were exactly what I wanted! Added a lining, a bustle, hemmed, and fitted to perfection. 10/10 would recommend”
“EXCEPTIONAL! Kaivy tailoring is the most professional and amazing tailoring service I have ever used!!! I had three dresses all which required very detailed meticulous level of work and they way exceeded my expectations. Their prices are sooooooooo reasonable for the exceptional work they provide. I won't be going anywhere else!”
“Evy is a true artist! She transformed my wedding dress into a dream. The attention to detail on the lacework was incredible. She took time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations. The studio is beautiful and I felt so special during my fittings.”
“I brought in my mother's vintage wedding dress for alterations and Evy treated it like the priceless heirloom it is. She carefully modernised the silhouette while preserving all the original details. There were tears of joy when I tried it on. Truly exceptional craftsmanship.”
“Found Kaivy through a referral from my bridal salon and I am so grateful. The consultation was thorough, the pricing transparent, and the final result was perfection. My gown fit like it was made for me. The private fitting experience made everything feel so luxurious.”
