Yvonne is AMAZING. She provides excellent service and does a quality job on everything she does. Over the years I have had her alter jeans and dresses, including my wedding dress! Highly recommend! read more

Responded on time and service was great ! I asked her to alter the length of me dress (bridesmaids) and she delivered! Was very happy with it !! Definitely recommend her to anyone ! Thank you so much ! read more

I was absolutely amazed by Yvonne and her ability to alter my expensive bridesmaid dress that was suited for a non pregnant body to my now pregnant body! She not only altered it beautifully, but she was able to do it in a way where I can still wear the dress once I am no longer pregnant... literally stunned by her skills. She was profession, honest, and reasonable priced! I will definitely return for more services! I highly recommend using Yvonne. read more

She made three tops for me from scratch and I love them. Her work is excellent and her prices are low

Yvonne altered my wedding dress - lots of lace and overlay. She was extremely helpful and professional, and clearly has extensive experience. She did a phenomenal job and was reasonably priced. She texts and is communicative. I would go to her again and again! Thanks Yvonne! read more

By Yvonne - Bustle she created. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Oakley, California

She never has time always says she's booked. Didn't even ask me what or when I needed something by. Ok well I'll take my business somewhere else!! read more

Rude. Required about a small alteration and she replied curt and rude. I understand if the small business is too busy to take on another job but the communication was not friendly in nature . read more

I had a dress come from China for a wedding I'm going to be a bridesmaid in and I got a size bigger than what I am in US sizes (because I know china sizes run way smaller) needless to say the dress was not even close to zipping around my ribs. I panicked, I cried, I almost backed out of the wedding and then I decided to shoot Yvonne an email. I took the dress to Yvonne and she worked her magic. She basically made me a new dress because the one I had to order (for sizing) wasn't the one the bride wanted and she wanted us all to look the same, it's her dream day and I didn't want to ruin that! I have a larger chest area and I needed more coverage and a corset back added to the dress to make it work! The finished product is so supportive and covers the girls so I don't give the wedding a free show! Also she added a piece to go around my neck to make me look like the rest of the girls! I was so insecure when I got the dress and even when I went to meet her the first day to try it on for her. By the end of my first visit she had made me feel so comfortable and I knew I was in good hands!! She's like the fairy godmother in Cinderella! She turned my broken image of me in this dress into a beautiful bridesmaid who can't take this dress off once I put it on because I love it so much !! I would recommend Yvonne 10/10 times! She's the kindest and most genuinely nice person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, and I will go to her for all my future seamstress needs! Thank you so much Yvonne, you're amazing! **I will update my post with pictures once we get some taken** read more

Yvonne is such a sweet lady and the quality of her work is amazing. Definitely recommend

Turned me away real quick ! Lol Definitely not how you run a business. My advice is ask questions before turning someone away. She said she had only done a couple, so therefore be honest & say you aren't comfortable doing it plus you're busy the next few months. I asked that specific question only because I don't expect everyone who alters & tailors to know how to deal with an Indian dress. I know better to ask to alter clothing in advance, I didn't expect it immediately. If this is true that you can't assist customers till July, then maybe you should have that written somewhere so we don't bother to ask for help. Being honest rather then turning someone away is way better customer service. When I got the first response that was my first impression. Not a good look. read more

Yvonne is an incredible person, business woman, and seamstress! I contacted her last minute - about 3 weeks prior to my wedding (total jerk-move on my part) - hoping she could do some alterations on my wedding dress. She was very honest in telling me that she was quite swamped and wasn't sure she could squeeze me in. But after asking me a few questions to gauge what I was needing, she determined that she could make it work and asked me to come in for measurements. The fitting/measurements appointment was quick and she asked all the right questions about all different areas on the dress that made me feel confident she knew exactly what she was doing and would tailor the dress to what I wanted. On top of that she was such a joy to just chat with and didn't try to rush me through the appointment or conversation. Yvonne ended up finishing my alterations in about a week (!): took the dress in about two sizes (on a dress with a lace overlay), added bra cups, and hemmed the bottom. It fit perfectly and hit the floor right where we discussed. On top of that, her prices, especially considering how fast she is, were great. And she's conveniently open to communicating via text. Hands down, excellent work and overall experience. read more

Brought 3 dresses for alterations (and a repair) for a wedding weekend and all 3 were ready a week ahead of schedule. She's very responsive to text. Will definitely be using her services again! read more

Just such an amazing quality of work for a very fair price. I highly recommend. Every time I'm blown away by how my alterations turn out.

Yvonne does not disappoint. Recently I had three pairs of jeans and a blazer altered. She is very good at what she does... everything I've had altered had came out amazing! She makes sure you are comfortable where things get altered before she finalizes her notes. Also you pay at pick up. read more

Wow, Yvonne is the best! She made room in her schedule for us at the last minute and did BEAUTIFUL work quickly for a very reasonable price. I can't say enough about her immaculate work. EVERYONE should bring their dresses to Yvonne. She also has a rack of old formals to sell. They're dated, but heavily discounted and have never been worn. If anyone could modernize them for a bargain, Yvonne can! #Prom #Formals #Weddings #Alternations #garter read more

She was very professional. I needed to hem my sons pants. I planned ahead and gave her plenty of time to have them to me. She was busy with proms and weddings but she was very professional and she did am excellent job. I will definitely go to her again! read more

Yvonne is just amazing. My sister and mom have gone to her for many an alteration so when I needed a bridesmaid dress fixed I knew just who to go to. She was honest and kind with her advice and opinions on how to make the dress fit and look better. The alterations were done way before I needed them so it was nice to check that off my list of things to do. Highly recommend Yvonne and will definitely be going back next time I need something altered. read more

Wonderful experience. Need quick service for a flower girl dress and Yvonne delivered! Thanks so much.

I randomly found Yvonne by a Facebook recommendation and went to her because I can pretty much walk to her shop. She is sooooo nice to talk to! She is a master at what she does! I lost a bunch of weight and the dress no longer fit at the final fitting. Like the pro she is, she took my wedding dress in and made it fit me like a glove. I'm so grateful I found Yvonne and will always go to her for my tailoring now. read more

By Yvonne - I lost 15 lbs and at the dress was falling off of me. Yvonne was able to preform a miracle and make it fit perfectly again. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Oakley, California

Yvonne was truly a professional and takes her craft quite seriously! She altered a flower girl dress with a short timeline! Thanks again for your help, Yvonne! read more

By Yvonne - 5 stars for this gal! Yvonne was helpful, fair prices, and most importantly was able to help me out with a short timeline. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Oakley, California

Impeccable quality of work and service! Yvonne hemmed my daughter's flower girl dress. She was not only wonderful and gracious with my daughter but she also did a beautiful job with the dress. I'd give her a 10 star rating if I could! read more

Absolutely amazing! I dropped off two items to get patches sewn on last Tuesday, I was not in a hurry for the items back since I did not need to wear until next month, surprisingly received a text they were already finished today!!! (Less than a week later) Beautiful job and will definitely be coming back to finish the sewing on my jackets once I get my patches. I highly recommend great service! read more

Super love how my curtains turned out. Yvonne asked me to measure for each window as the cut of each curtain panel isn't uniform and true enough, she is absolutely right. Glad I followed her instructions. read more

Yvonne was excellent and very communicative. She is extremely busy and very conscious of COVID precautions, which I appreciate greatly. In addition to a wonderful job hemming my pants, she was able to shorten sleeves on several suit jackets. Will definitely use again. read more

I needed a gown hemmed for the Marine Ball I was attending overseas and of course, waited until the 11th hour. Not only could Yvonne squeeze me in (I met with her two days before we left and my dress was good to go the next afternoon) but she did an amazing job at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend her! read more

I went to yvonne on may 3rd for my prom dress, I told her what I needed done. My dress itself came with some issues, it had missing jewels and the extra jewels that came with the dress needed to have heat applied and I needed my straps tightened. Personally I was a little anxious, I had never worked with her before but only seen the great reviews on here. BUT on May 21st she sent me a message saying it was done, and if I could go in. I went in that day, and my dress now fits perfectly. The missing jewels were replaced, it now looks like nothing was ever missing and the straps fit perfectly. I can move around and dance without worrying they'll fall off. Yvonne herself was very perfessional, but at the same time managed to make me feel like I had known her forever. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Yvonne these past couple of weeks. She altered my wedding dress, and another dress I needed taken in. I found her here on Yelp. She was great at communication via text. Yvonne was able to schedule appointments around my crazy schedule. She was friendly, knowledgeable, thorough,quick, and professional. She knows her craft! I had my final fitting yesterday, and my dresses were completed today! I will definitely be using her for any future needs. read more

Found Yvonne here on yelp and loved her reviews . Sent her a message and she was very quick with her response. We booked and appointment for the hemming of my bridesmaid dress. She got my dress on a Tuesday late afternoon and was done so fast I was able to pick my dress back that same week on Friday. She's super sweet and her work is beautiful! I'll def be hitting her up for all my alteration needs as well as recommending her to all my ppl. read more

I needed an experienced seamstress- I found one! No complaints here! Very professional and pleasant to deal with

Highly recommended for quality service! Yvonne is the BEST! After going to someone else who overcharged me for a previous alteration and did just a marginal job, I found Yvonne. Going to her with 3 VERY EXPENSIVE articles of clothing that were provided by an employer for a new job ($895 dress, $450 pants, $250 pants) I was nervous to say the least. She not only did an exceptional job, but she stayed past her closing time to accommodate my schedule so I could come in to try everything on/pay after the alterations were complete. And the cherry on top was that the price was so very reasonable. I am elated with her service! read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Yvonne has altered 4 of my dresses in the past couple of months. One which is my wedding dress and another that is my daughters flower girl dress. Was told that my wedding dress would be difficult to hem but managed to do it. She does amazing work, she's fast, and very affordable! I will definitely will be coming back for all my alteration needs. Thank you so much Yvonne! read more

Amazing - she works magic. We have been using her for years I have 2 girls and they had tons of events they needed to attend in dresses that needed some attention now my girls are grown and they are bridesmaids so more Yvonne love needed. Thanks Yvonne for always making everything better read more

I am not usually one to write reviews but I just HAD to for Yvonne. Twice now I have contacted her to help me with bridesmaid dresses that didn't fit, and both times I only had a week before the weddings. She responded so quickly and fit me in the day I contacted her and had the dresses done the next day. She is so professional and even though she is super busy, her work is excellent and detailed and she takes the time to review her work with you and show you exactly what she did. It really didn't matter to me what I would be paying since I needed the dresses to fit no matter what and i was pleasantly surprised at how reasonably priced she was considering I had basically asked for a rush order :) I will never go anywhere else for my alteration needs! read more

I am so grateful I found Yvonne. She altered two bridesmaids dresses for me in a short time frame and at an affordable price. I am "vertically challenged" so the dresses were both too long. She left a beautiful train on both and even came up with the idea of adding a bustle to the one so I could take pictures in the snow and not have a soaking wet dress. She is extremely talented and I recommend her to anyone. Now I'm going though my closet to find more things for Yvonne to work her magic on.... :) read more

Yvonne did a great job on my bridesmaids dress! It turned out beautifully, she was very reasonably priced, and it was done so quickly! I would definitely go back to her! read more

I love coming here for my alterations and hemming. I brought one of my prom dresses here in high school and she did wonderful work. She also makes custom garters which are reasonably priced! I recently came again for my bridesmaids dress. She caught things about the dress that I didn't notice, and she worked well with my mom in making sure the dress was perfect. I love coming here, and even though I live in Sacramento, I make sure to come back when in town because she does such a great job! read more

I called Yvonne very last minute for alterations on a garment for my sons wedding. She was able to do the alteration and did a fabulous job. She basically had to rework a blouse that was a size or two, too big. Her work is excellent! I highly recommend her to anyone needing alterations. I'm happy i found her and even happier to have her in my own community. read more

I was in a rush to have a bridesmaid dress hemmed and she came through! Very professional and reasonable, plus she was very patient with my 4 year old son who came with me for the fittings. I will definitely be using her again! read more

I came to Yvonne 2 weeks before my wedding with a dress that was to big and I needed help she responded to me right away and had me come in that day she was so helpful and my dress was perfect for my day I was so happy with the work and her willingness to help me on such short notice I would recommend her to all of my friends I went to her in high school with my prom dresses and it was so great that she was able to help me with my wedding dress too read more
