I have been dealing with Helen since 2015. My latest was this September for the complete alteration of a Tuxedo for my daughter's wedding. I ordered it o line and figured it would be the usual of hemming the pants. Helen looked at me trying it on and her fashion sense took over. She said they sent me the wrong size and I should send it back. It was too late; I only had a week until the wedding. She hemmed the pants, took in the vest, and the jacket shortened the jacket and the sleeves and had it all done for the wedding. I got nothing but rave reviews wearing it. I will never use anyone else for my tailoring or other sewing needs. She's the absolute best.

Huyen (Helen) has tailored well over 2 dozen items of clothing for me, including business wear and formal evening wear over a number of years. Every single item has been carefully tailored with attention and precision. Extremely reasonable prices. You will not be disappointed!

Helen did an incredible job on my dress! Fast, accurate, and highly skilled! My dress arrived way too large in the mail and within a week, she addressed all my concerns, made it form fitting and perfect to size:) Highly recommend Helen for any of your tailoring needs!

The service was amazing! My daughters prom dress turned out absolutely perfect! Highly highly recommend.

I rarely give reviews but I am compelled to after the amazing job that Helen did hemming my pants. As a short girl I have had to have so many pairs of pants hemmed and Helen did by far the best work I have ever encountered. Her skills and craftsmanship are top-notch and it is obvious that she takes pride in her work.

Highly recommend this place. The lady their Helen was really nice and welcoming. She did an emergency alteration for me and I was really happy with the service

Helen was absolutely lovely when I came into get my dress altered. She knew exactly what should be done so the dress would fit like a glove. I absolutely loved my experience and will be going back for sure. I recommend if you need anything fixed or altered.

Great service and good value for your money. Went above and beyond to make sure my bridesmaid dress looked fantastic. Will be returning here for all my future alteration needs.

Absolute C-U-Next Tuesday.when im trying to bring you business, try your best to not rush me off the phone.i was going to go there and now i'm not.miserable byotch.work on your manners lady
16 October 2022 20:43
I tried to make a phone call for an appointment, and was very rushed and was told to call back, not a good first impression was made.

Helen was friendly and reassuring she could alter my bridesmaid dress (that was a size too big and too long) in just a week. She said my dress has a complicated hem, but she was able to alter it perfectly. She gave me a specific time and date to pick it up, and she finished it so that there was extra time to make any additional adjustments (not needed though!). While it was fairly expensive, you get what you pay for and it was definitely worth it!
27 September 2022 13:40
I brought my dress in to have the train removed and shortened at the bottom and she did such a fantastic job! She made it look like the dress was designed that way. Couldn't be happier
22 September 2022 21:05
Highly recommend! My MIL suggested this place after she had some alterations done. Helen is so funny and I look forward to going in to see her for a good laugh. Her work is amazing. I went in today and she asked me when I needed it by and she quickly told me she could do it. She’s definitely my go-to girl!

We went to see Huyen (Helen) at Magic Stitch & Tailor for alterations for my wedding dress and for my mom’s dress as well, after a friend recommended them to me. Huyen was fantastic and did such a great job! She was friendly, timely, and personable and really made both of us feel so comfortable in her presence. She went out of her way to suggest that I didn’t need any major alterations as my dress still fit reasonably well off the rack – which ended up saving me a lot of money while still looking great! She made some minor adjustments by fixing a tear, shortening some ribbon, and then adding a few options for me to gather up my dress in three different ways for dancing later in the evening. All adjustments stayed easily in place and I had no issues throughout my day. My dress looked beautiful, and my mom was very pleased with the alterations on her dress as well. Thank you so much to Huyen and Magic Stitch & Tailor! Would highly recommend!

I paid 22 dollar for nothing. She measured all my measurements wrong. How i know? When she told me my waistline measurement i was having doubts. So i measure my waistline at home and she’s wrong. Even height measurement is wrong. All too big. I end up asking my husband to do all measurements. Praying.

Helen is the best tailor in Kanata. She is very professional and knows exactly what she is doing. Anytime I need alternations, she is my go to person!
12 June 2022 20:26
I'm a chubby guy so whenever I buy new pants, I need them hemmed shorter. The owner here has hemmed many pairs of pants for me and its always been an excellent job. I'm very happy with the service provided, the price, and the speed.

When (not if) I buy more pants, I will go back here for hemming.
27 May 2022 5:39
Helen is amazing. She’s so funny and easy to get along with. She also does amazing work. Would give her 6 stars if I could!
My new go to tailor for Ottawa.

Thanks!

I am very grateful to Huyen Nguyen who did an amazing job with the alterations on my wedding dress! I've been going to Huyen for years for alterations and knew my dress was in good hands!
13 May 2022 1:07
The owner was great! My Bridesmaids dress was altered within a few weeks and she did a great job.
10 May 2022 3:25
Helen is the best! She does such great work and made me feel like a king. She also recommended a few other alterations that made all the difference. She’s for great style and an eye for fashion. Highly recommend!
26 April 2022 13:42
Wow Helen is very talented, altered two pairs of jeans and they fit better than any I have ever owned. Thanks!
19 April 2022 8:16
Helen is amazing! Friendly and reliable service. No job is too big or small for her to undertake and last minute requests are never refused! Always a perfect fit. Thank you Helen

I highly recommend Magic Stitch and Tailor for all your tailoring needs! I have gone to there for general repairs before (patching/stitching), which were done really well. However, I recently entrusted her to replace the entire lining of my vintage leather jacket. She was professional, timely and meticulous (she even put the tag back in place). My jacket looks incredible and I could not be more pleased with the outcome!
04 January 2022 19:30
Great service with a quick turnaround time! She was able to alter the neckline of my outfit seamlessly and made adjustments without the need for several trials. Definitely recommend and will return for more services in the future!
02 January 2022 20:08
I am incredibly happy with a recent zipper replacement done on my down winter coat. The attention to detail is far better than I could ever have hoped for and its been very professionally done. I am an experienced seamstress, but was uncomfortable tackling this repair and understand how challenging it would be. Thank you!
14 December 2021 15:53
Very impressed with the alterations I received. I had a bridesmaid dress which was multiple sizes too large and on a short time frame. They were beautifully done and right one time
Great service! Would definitely recommend to others.
07 October 2021 16:07
She tailored my wedding dress in little to no time one week b4 I was to be married.thank you so much for the amazing job you made me beautiful with your beautiful work
27 September 2021 4:09
Such great customer service! I had my dress hemmed and still found it slightly too long, so it was fixed at no extra charge, and done on the same day. I strongly recommend Magic Stitch!
23 September 2021 21:19
I had a MOB dress shortened and my husband a shirt taken in at the shoulders and arms. Helen did an excellent job on both and with a quick turnaround and reasonable pricing. I will not hesitate to return for any of my alteration needs.
27 August 2021 18:17
Helen does excellent work on everything I have brought to her. I have been going to her for years, and am always extremely satisfied with her work. She is very personable, as well as accommodating!
26 July 2021 12:23
Helen is great at what she does. I have had many repairs and alterations done by her and have never been disappointed. She also has great ideas to make outfits that need alterations work. She also has great assortment masks of different colours and designs.

Amazing experience at Magic Stitch and Tailor. I had many items that needed alterations and Helen got them done very quickly. I am very impressed with the quality and how professional this business is.
07 July 2021 15:57
I’m so lucky to have found Helen! I called her and she got me in for an alterations appointment the day of and right when she was closing! I then had to make an adjustment with the hem and she was super responsive and quick and I was able to get remeasured very quickly. She is the sweetest. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I will for sure be a repeat client.

It was great to discover Helen when I needed alteration done at a crucial time. In addition to her fun personality, she made some great recommendations on the alterations and was sure to deliver on time. In addition, she was very clear on what she was able to do and what was going to be challenging per my request. I really appreciated that. Certainly going back for any future alternations. She has my full recommendation to do a good job! Thanks again, Helen.

Very disappointed my zipper that cost me $80 didn't even last 4 months and they not willing to replace it was made from very cheap quality materials: (
13 March 2021 8:32
Wonderful job and service on replacing a zipper on my parka. Leather trim needed to be removed and reattached to replace the zipper and looks perfect. Thanks so much! Highly recommend!
15 February 2021 1:59
I have been going here for years. The work is always great and done on time. I will keep coming back!

I am always pleased with the alterations; very professionally done, and completed on time. I would highly recommend "Magic Stitch And Tailor".

Helen is absolutely amazing! She did a rush job on my wedding renewal dress within days, her work is impeccable and she's just the sweetest person to deal with. Highly recommend her!
08 September 2018 16:31
Helen did a great job altering my dress to swear to a summer wedding. When I took the dress into the shop I was greeted with a smile. There was one customer ahead of me so I had to wait a few minutes. Helen made sure that I knew she valued my business and would be with me as soon as possible. My dress needed some serious alterations. Helen outlined everything she was going to do, pinned my dress, confirmed the price and told me to come back in ten days. The finished product as perfect. Helen would not let me leave until I tried the dress on so she could check her work. I was very pleased and I am already collecting up things to take to Magic Stitch for Helen to make right
