*** Can anyone recommend an expert tailor in the Lakeview / Metairie area? I am going to need some alterations done in a relatively quick turnaround time, i.e. 4-5 days. Thanks in advance for any good referrals.
Good dry cleaner/tailor? Hey /r/neworleans! Quick question for y'all: Can anyone recommend a dry cleaner or tailor that can fix mistakes? I have a pretty expensive poplin skirt that used to be pleated, until it met a dry cleaner who did exactly what I told them not to do and steamed the pleats out. I haven't had to get many things dry cleaned here in New Orleans, so I have no idea where to even start! I'm looking for someone who can not only get out the penmarks the first place missed, but also restore my beloved skirt's former pleated glory. Please help me out! Thank you :)

Amy's Alterations in Harahan Address: 1715 Hickory Ave, Harahan, LA 70123 Phone:(504) 738-0017 I know it's kinda far out there, but it will be FAR CHEAPER, and FAR QUICKER than ANYWHERE in New Orleans. I had a tailor associated with Tulane while I was there hem my suit jacket sleeves like 1" and they charged me $28 and took two weeks. My friend took her pants to Amy's and they charged her $12 and had it done in a day and they were PERFECT.
