Seleh was great with rehemming a bridesmaid dress for me for my brother's wedding as well as offering advice on whether additional work was needed on the dress or not. He delivered the dress on a tight deadline and was able to add an extra half inch reduction to the hem when I had to call and let him know my shoes had changed. He's been a part of the Fed Hill small businesses for years and is such an integral part of the community. Would recommend him.

I brought in a vintage dress from the 1940's that needed adjustments to fit my 2024 bust. I was so worried to let anyone handle the task but Seleh put me at ease. Seleh was so kind and welcoming; I have not had the same experience with other tailors in the area, unfortunately. It is clear he takes great care in his work and treats his customers well. Some other customers came in while I was there and it was clear they had long- standing relationships, which speaks volumes. So happy to know I have a place to bring my beloved vintage clothing.

in response to the owner: taking in the waist did not take away all of the stretch, it was velvet, and it was even still a bit too large. my waist is 23". it is small, but i can fit a dress that small over my body. i know my body. i was able to sit through the performance i went to see comfortably and the strap was not well attached. it was shoddy work from a stubborn easily offended old man who doesn't respect femme presenting people. calling me "this chick". you do not know how i dressed myself. you did create an unwelcome environment. i hope u can reflect and respect people more.

Ms Jamison visited my shop with a black knitted dress for alterations service and she would like to have it back in a few days I explained my fast service charge of 150.00 plus the alteration price she reluctantly looked at me then agreed she tried the dress on I pinned the dress we agreed to a pick up day but not a pick up time the day she came to pick up her dress I had another appointment so I suggested she come back in a few hours she and I both looked uncomfortable because we didn’t agree on a time however within two hours she did return and I asked her to try the dress on after trying the dress on she comes out the fitting room the straps was ok but she wanted the knitted pull over dress that didn’t have a zipper and she wanted it tapered more I than explained to her that a knitted dress doesn’t have much stretch to it she said ok and went to try it on again. Again she wanted it tapered more I explained again that she needed room to stretch it over her body she agreed again but still wanted more I again explained to this chick that I’m giving her 48 years of experience and expertise and this chick just wasn’t listening I had her try it on again she then came back out and again wanted it tapered some more i again explained that she taking out all the elasticity out of the dress and it’s not going to have any room for giving however one more this girl had no respect for knowledge and wanted more taken out I reluctantly agreed however she claimed she knew what she wants we go another round of fitting and again she wanted more in the waist and I explained to her again that for the last time in order for me to do it she would need to sign an agreement that I’m not responsible for anything after that and she signed and agreed I then took it in some more and this time she wiggled into it and she seemed to be satisfied so we both agreed however the straps were ok and I knew from 48 years of experience that it was no more stretch in it at that point she was very happy with the dress as I said earlier she had no wiggle room for Sitting or stretching because all the elasticity was gone unfortunately this happens when you don’t listen to the experts I told shedded a tear of hope I appreciate the business and you forgot to mention that I only charged you 50.00 and waved the 100.00 since you claimed that u paid for fast service happy healthy everything thanks again Seleh
Feb 19, 2023Previous reviewi paid extra for a rush order on a dress alteration (taking down a size and altering the strap lengths) and he didn't get to sewing the dress until i had arrived to pick it up. he tried to play it off like he was currently working on it which was just uncomfortable for everyone tbh. then, when i tried on the dress it didn't look quite right so i asked him to take it in on the hips and the waist, he was happy to do the hips but not the waist. i am a small person with a small waist, and he just wouldn't listen to me which was so frustrating. i am paying for a service and i would like to be happy with what i am receiving. i leave with my dress after going back and forth with this dude and try on this dress about 8 times for it to fit right. i go to my event and at the end of the night one of the straps disconnected. overall; uncomfortable, frustrating, made me cry in the dressing room, felt like i was talking to a wall, don't run a service based business if ur that stubborn, generally upset, would not recommend.

I am a curvy girl and my hips are two sizes bigger than my waist. I brought several skirts, pants and dresses to Seleh and he skillfully took in the waist and left me with the slim fit look that I like. His craftsmanship is excellent so that you cannot tell it was altered. You are paying for quality and peace of mind with Seleh. He took the time to know me and I trusted him. He's patient and great to work with. He turned around some of my garments when I had a very tight turnaround. I've moved out of Baltimore and leaving Seleh was definitely a big con. I hope to find a tailor as good at their craft as him. My only tip is to call before you go because he's not always in office and prefers to know when customers are coming.

Seleh's is great! The owner really takes his craft seriously and wants you to love your garment. He was also very nice, would definitely go back!

If there was a name for a horrible bride, it would be Kha. I am not a planner- in general. I took my "wedding" dress to Seleh for alterations after a less than stellar experience with another seamstress. Seleh listened patiently to my story and worked with me under an extremely aggressive timeline (1 week!) and right before his vacation too!
I'm extremely detailed oriented- borderline nit picky. However, my biggest flaw is that I'm too scared to speak up for fear of offending (hence why I had to seek out Seleh in the first place). What's great about him is his easy going personality and his skill for conversation. Seleh never once made me feel guilty for voicing my thoughts or opinions. After my every decision or indecision, he would have me try on the dress, then he would step back to look at me and then he would say, "Speak to me." It was as if he was an artist and I was his living masterpiece. We would work through every alteration until he knew I was thoroughly satisfied. And through it all, he never lost patience with me and all my indecisiveness. He is a really gentle soul and his work speaks for itself (see photos).
I couldn't recommend Seleh's de Federal Hill more! Please don't hesitate and call him!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jennifer E.Canton, Baltimore, MD091Jun 12, 2023
Amazing tailoring job, he shortened sleeves of my husbands leather jacket. Great customer service

I bought a leather jacket as a gift. Unfortunately, the sleeves were ridiculously long but the jacket was out of production.
That's were Seleh's came in. The owner is exceedingly professional and clearly explained the alteration process to me. He then took measurements and explained pricing to so there were no surprises.
Within three weeks the jacket was perfect though he would have made adjustments of necessary.
I also have to add that the proprietor is a very personable gentleman and genuinely seems to enjoy people which was a refreshing bonus.
If you ever need a leather jacket altered (or cleaned) I highly recommend Seleh's.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
