alterations?

[johnnie-b.livejournal.com]

Hey neighbors,

Looking for some suggestions on where to get some clothes altered nearby. I have my first real grown-up interview on the 9th (i'm being flown somewhere ooooh), and I need some pants hemmed and the sleeves on a shirt taken in... not from the cuff though, but so they're skinnier. I live right off of Mass Ave. I'd like a place i can drop it off Monday and pick it up by Thursday (this is all very sudden for me, so I couldn't really plan ahead). I definitely don't mind paying for good work and expediency, but at the same time, I haven't gotten my grown-up job just yet. So if you could let me know of some good places and some price ideas, I would be so so grateful. I tried google; but the reviews haven't been very helpful and there aren't any websites for these places.

edit: also, I work on Newbury Street, so if anyone has reviews on Dependable Cleaners that would help a bunch too.

Rizzo's on Church Street in Harvard Square did an amazing job when I brought them a formal dress to take in and alter in other ways. I don't know if they can work on that kind of schedule, but I will vouch for their skill.

Big second. Rizzo's is great. And as for the time constraint, it is my belief that anything can be done as quickly as you need it if you are willing to pay extra.
