Kim works magic. Simple as that. She has altered two of my suits and two dress shirts [for my rehearsal dinner and wedding] and they all fit incredible. One suit I bought last year and I have since dropped about 25 lbs, she essentially reconstructed the entire jacket and it fits like a glove now, even fixing the mistake of the first tailor shortening the sleeves too much. I didn't know 'lengthening the sleeve' was possible. If you have something that you love and it doesn't fit, even if another tailor told you the alterations are 'impossible' - bring it to Kim.
I accidentally ripped two large holes in my favorite pair of pants right by the seam that goes down the middle. I was worried that I'd have to throw them away but Kim fixed them up perfectly! She managed to get rid of both holes and still make the pants look/feel brand new. She even reinforced the area around the seam in order to prevent future holes.
Kim is super nice and gives great service for a very affordable price. I'll definitely be going to her for all my future tailoring needs.
Friendly and fast service

With less than a week until I was leaving for a wedding in Europe I got my new suit back from a local suit company and the fit was atrocious. The pants were fine, but the jacket was twisted behind the shoulders and the tail of the jacket was so tight it lifted off my back. I was almost certain I would not get to wear my new suit to the wedding and would have to wear my old one. I took the suit to Kim and she worked a miracle! She had me in for four fittings in a matter of 5 days where she carefully made slight adjustments with the very little material left from the previous tailor. Kim and her team even stayed at the store until 8pm the night before my flight, so they could make some final touches, making it so I could look my best for the wedding!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Kim. I had two dresses I needed tailored for a wedding at the last minute and Kim tailored both of them beautifully! She is amazing to work with and cares so deeply about her clients. Thank you, Kim!
My wife and I were in Boston for two nights. We bought a dress at a local store that my wife wanted to wear later that evening. Kim was able to get us in immediately and had my wifes dress fitting perfectly by dinner that same night. Kim is a lifesaver and her work is second to none.
I had a rush alteration request and Kim was beyond amazing. Even during a busy day, she was personable and took the time to provide expedited service. Quality of work was top line and I left with a smile due to her superior customer service skills!
Kim did an outstanding job designing and creating a custom dress for my daughter's prom. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and she went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of the dress was perfect. She sourced a stunning fabric and expertly crafted a traditional Vietnamese dress that suited my daughter beautifully. The moment my daughter stepped into the dress, everyone couldn't help but admire her exquisite appearance. We are immensely grateful to Kim for her unwavering dedication and the time she invested in making my daughter's prom night an unforgettable experience.
Kim is an incredible tailor. Not only is she up to date with current fashion trends and fits, she also has a vision that help accentuate your best qualities and take in consideration of comfort too. There is not a single tailor in Massachusetts who has the amount of care and dedication for both her work and her clients. If you need something to be tailored or made, definitely visit Kim. She's so good I'm pretty sure she's a wizard.
Kim helped us with our wedding gown. She is someone who genuinely cares and super skilled.
Kim repaired my moncler coat after being recommended from the store. She did an amazing job and was so kind and gracious. I cant wait to do have her tailor anything else I need. Highly recommend her!
Thank you to Miss Kim she has helped me so much it is 9pm at night and she has made a beautiful exception for me and completely did my pants excellent and my blazer She wishes me luck on my new job! She has been the best for 45year now! Doing the work and making everyone so happy thank you so much to miss Kim she can do anything
Kim is awesome! She helped me last minute tailor a pair of pants and I brought her two more suits the following week. Great work and great people!
I cannot compliment Kim and her staff enough. I bought a jumpsuit with cape from JJs House online and found both the pant legs/cape were too long and that the jumpsuit was somewhat wider around the torso than was preferable. I brought the outfit to Kim's on Monday of last week and within a week and a half they completed the whole job! I look wonderful in the outfit and I can't wait to wear it to my friend's wedding tomorrow.
I especially would like to shout out a Russian-speaking lady whose name I forget, with whom it was a pleasure to speak in my native language and who had the wonderful idea in the eleventh hour to take in the fabric around the sleeves, which was the perfect final touch.
I should, of course, have given them more time to make the many alterations that were necessary, but they rose to the occasion wonderfully. When Kim claims to be the best tailor in Boston, it is no idle boast! Worth every penny.
10 stars for Kim! She helped save my winter Moncler jacket that had a tear in it, and Moncler said they couldnt fix it. She did a custom tailor monogram to cover it and I get so many compliments! I truly trust her with all my nice pieces of clothing.
Kim is amazing! I needed to have a bridesmaid dress altered in several places, and she did an amazing job. I'm only going to go to her moving forward!
Fine tailoring - best of breed.
I'm Glad i run in to Kim's fashion. She made me An African dress out of a scratch, professional. I had a very tight scheduled but she was kind enough to put extra hr. Thank you kim :)
I love Kim!!! Ive known her for about 4 years now. Shes altered all my outfits for my bday every year. I love going to her shes very quick efficient. I recommend her 100% to anyone, she can literally talior anything to your needs. I truly think shes amazing! I love her!
Great work
Kim is great! Clothes off the rack dont even come close to fitting me, and Kim made my suits and jeans nice and snug.
Amazing job! She took a lot of time to carefully measure me, ask what fit I was looking for, and give her opinion on how to tailor the clothes. I left her with three high quality jackets that didn't fit just right. Finished product looks great, at a very fair price. Will definitely be coming back.
I had an emergency situation that required a tailoring overhall with a 24 hour window. I was reffered to Kim's Fashion by my dry cleaner and I couldnt be happier. The work done was amazing, I will return for sure!
Thank you so much for donating the beautiful masks to our hospital! As doctors on the frontlines, we are very grateful!!
Kim rush-tailored a full linen suit for a spontaneous COVID wedding and threw in a custom made mask as a surprise -- same material from the suit, and one of my most well-made masks! Sweet woman with a mastery of her trade. Recommended
I am honored to provide a review of Kim, owner of Kims Fashion Design in Boston. She is hands down the best tailor I have been to in Boston. She is extremely skilled at altering everything including bras, dresses, tops and pants. Kim takes great pride in her workmanship therefore 99% of the time her work is absolutely perfect. On the rare occasion something is not altered perfectly, she will redo until you are 100% satisfied! I truly could not live without Kim as I literally would have nothing to wear! Virtually every stylish piece of clothing I own has been tailored by Kim therefore all of my clothes fits perfectly!
I went to Kim's several times in the past few months for alterations (coats, denim, dresses, etc). She does superb work and is SO friendly and appreciative of your business. I can't recommend this tailor enough! I won't go anywhere else in Boston.
Kim Fashion did a very good job of fixing cloth defiantly come back next time
Kim did an excellent job on my wedding dress! Felt like second skin! There were a lot of details to be fixed because the dress was taken off the rack and not brand new. Kim and Sumincha (Kims helper) helped with shortening the front, adjusting the hip, waist, chest, and the lace sleeves and back. Lace takes skills and effort to fix but they really mastered it! Look how beautiful the dress turnt to be!
Kim is the best in the city! I've been a customer for almost 2 years now. She always does a PHENOMENAL job!
Kim was very responsive when I first reached out through email.
She performed an alteration on an existing dress, as well as a design FROM SCRATCH on a whole new dress.
When you arrive you can show her what kind of style you want, and she will respond with the different fabrics and styles she has / can get.
She'll take her time to measure your dimensions to get the dress just right.
Kim takes great pride in her work and I trust her with understanding what the customer wants.
The location is tucked in Prudential's 3rd floor, and you'll have to sign in with security and then you'll see her little shop in an office like complex next to Wayfair.
Kim's work is superb. She expertly lengthened the sleeves on two jackets for me and dramatically improved the fit of a few of my suit pants. She answered the phone quickly anytime I called, and she was very kind and professional. She is a master tailor, and I highly recommend her.
Kim worked on a suit for me in 2020, my wife and I are back to her shop again for some alterations on a dress.
She does great work at a fair price and is very pleasant to work with. Since almost all the work is done directly by her you need to make sure you budget several weeks, but it's well worth it.
Great service does excellent work
Unbelievable how Kim and her team transformed my originally size 14 dress gown to a size 6! I did not expect the dress to look that hot. The team is very welcoming, diligent, and detailed on their work. Truly a gem of a team! Did not mention that the many alterations they did on the gown to fit my asks were completely in a relatively short period. Highly recommend.
I came to Kim for the first time about two years ago. I was referred to see her as j.crews ludlow shop was not able to get the alterations I needed done correctly even after three tries. I went to Kim and she got it right the first time! I am back once again and I can truly say I will not be trusting anyone else ever again. I order a custom suit from suit supply last week and I needed that altered even after getting a custom one done , along with dress shirts and pants and Kim did it all within a reasonable price range and in a timely manner! I will be recommending everyone to Kim and promise you wont be disappointed! Her many years of experience show in her work! Look no further and contact Kim today!
My sister brought her wedding dress for alterations and the service was beyond amazing. My sister was jumping around in her store because of the joy. Great work guys!! Definitely found my go too place.
Went to Kim to get a gown altered, and I only had two days before my event. Kim was a godsend - amazing work, extremely fast, and she even fixed an extra tear in the gown that I hadnt seen when I bought it. Super affordable too!! I got quotes from a few places before and all of them were going to charge me more than double what I paid at Kims. I will definitely be returning, and have already referred two friends. Top notch!!
Just bought a brand new suit, had it tailored by the store and the fit was poor. Upon a great recommendation I brought it to Kims Fashion Design and she tailored it brilliantly and in time for the wedding. She is an artist!
Kim did phenomenal! She did EXACTLY what I asked for. I almost cried and I haddd to give her a tip. Kim is very talented and passionate about her work. Highly recommend
Kim did a wonderful job tailoring my suit - she was attentive, patient, and a generally kind person! I would recommend her to anyone looking for professional high quality tailoring.
Kim is a wonderful person; she and her staff are incredibly professional and kind. They know very well what they are doing when it comes to tailoring all types of wedding dresses. I am very satisfied.
Over the last two decades, I've had first one outfit, then another, then pants, then another jacket... they have been my sole clothes for going out and looking good. No matter how much I wear them and how many years go by, they never seem to get old!
Kim is incredibly talented and very sweet! Its clear she knows exactly what shes doing. I came in last minute, she had some good suggestions and did some great work. I will definitely be back. Thank you!!

Bought a few items at Hugo Boss in Copley this week and was introduced to their custom tailor Kim. Her Fashion Design & Tailoring business is just up a few floors in the same building! It was such a pleasure going through her vs an in-house tailor. Her craft and workmanship showed and she even stayed after hours to get me ready for a trip by tailoring a few items that same day. I highly recommend if you're looking for a friendly service that will exceed your expectations be sure to reach out to Kim's business. She's now my go to seamstress and tailor in Boston.
Thanks Kim!

Kim really went out of her way to make sure that the qipao I rented from her was perfect. When the first fitting wasn't close, she worked so hard to make sure that I could come back in a few hours to see if the new changes made were better - to fit the waist and hips perfectly, and make sure I could also sit down to eat (!) in it. In all I probably came in for five or six fittings and the dress came out perfect - I'd have definitely bought it if I thought I could wear a red qipao again.
Come in early, communicate your dates clearly and schedule in a few more fittings than you think you'll need and you'll have a great dress.
-Didi S.
I needed an outfit for an Indian wedding but couldn't find anything online or in stores because I am six and a half months pregnant. I found Kim one week before the wedding and visited her store. Kim had a selection of Indian outfits although none would go over my bump. Not to worry because Kim custom re-worked the outfit to bring it out and make the top and skirt into a dress! Kim basically made me a completely custom dress to flatter my body in three days. I received so many compliments at the wedding and felt more beautiful than on any other day of my pregnancy! I want to thank Kim and her team for making me feel so special. On top of that, her prices were very reasonable. You really couldn't find another designer/tailor like Kim.
-Julie P.
Kim is the best!!! I have been going to her for over 6 years for alterations on my formal dresses. She always does a great job and works very fast to finish the product for the event. Twice I dropped off a dress 1-2 days prior to an event and she has never said no and worked to finish the dress. She has a great eye and a few times suggested a different neckline for my dress and makes the dress look better than it did from the start. Personally, she is very warm and welcoming. Professionally, she is hard working, dedicated, efficient, and has reasonable pricing. She is the only person I go to in Boston!
-Lisa B.
I can't say enough good things about Kim. She first of all is talented in her craft. The dresses are well made with incredible material. She made alterations to one of her dresses and it fit my body perfectly and completely flattered it. She let me rent the dress for the weekend and come back at a later date to buy it. She is so kind, accommodating, we had a few good laughs and she made me feel so beautiful. If I could I'd rate this 10 stars.
