Dont listen to some of the post that are on here about bringing expensive clothes. They were probably just a horrible customer. I brought in a $100 Carhartt work pants and the materials are really thick and difficult to alter. I had them taper and hem my pants and they turned out beyond my expectation. Also fair price compared to a lot of other places in Seattle. Trust me if you need something altered go here theyre the absolute best.

They took shortcuts everywhere. I brought my blazer for shortening sleeves. The two sleeves are not same long. One sleeve cut is not even flat. The linings are poorly done. If your suit is expensive, don't bring it here.

I came in with a beautiful hand woven/knit blanket that I had stupidly thrown in the washer machine. It had basically unraveled, hanging on by literal threads. She was careful, considered the blanket, and explained to me how she suggested fixing it. I agreed and in a week or two, my blanket was ready, good as new. You could never tell it had been basically destroyed before! And the cost was so reasonable. I will be using Ellenvilla again the next time I need something altered!

Mary Ann did an amazing job altering a bridesmaid dress for me! I needed it taken out and hemmed, and I couldnt have imagined a better job being done. Highly recommend her to anyone needing any kind of alterations! I will definitely use her in the future.
