I asked for them to tailor my pants and they did a great job with it. Looks amazing and was very affordable

One of the best tailors in town, I needed my graduation gear embroidered in a day and she got it done perfectly. 100% would recommend 10/10!

Absolutely five stars all around for Celeste and her team. I found her when I needed a patch sewed onto a hat THAT SAME DAY! She delivered within a couple of hours, and truly saved the day. Since then I've brought her EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN that needs to be sewed, adjusted, holes filled, and she even makes custom clothes if you bring her fabric! She also re sewed the straps onto my favorite beach bag that fell off! Absolutely amazing job, amazing customer service, and great value for the quality of her craft!! Thank you so much Celeste!! I'll be telling everyone in LA to go see Celeste for all your tailoring and sewing needs! read more

I had a great experience getting two new Paul Smith suits tailored by Celeste. She was easy to work with, and helpful with adjustments along the way to get it just right. After the first suit turned out the way I had hoped, I came back with the second one, and will be returning for all my tailoring needs. Highly recommend. read more

These guys are the best. Always fast service. Excellent communication and always keeping me in the loop on my order.

It's been 8 years since I last used Celeste's Tailoring, and I should have stayed away. I thought I'd try her again since it had been so long, but I was sadly disappointed in the quality of the work AGAIN. Unfortunately, my dress and top are ruined now. If you want fast and dirty alterations this is your place. If you want *at least* basic quality work, go anywhere else! read more

Celeste and her son David are very nice and very efficient. They do very nice job on fabrics and clothing. I highly recommend them and their prices are good. read more

The woman was sweet but honestly very disappointed in my alterations and the whole process. I brought in a silk dress that needed to be re-done after the first round of alterations they did did not fit properly. Second time I picked it up there were still pins in the dress and the entire side seam was messy and distorted - completely unwearable. I paid $170 and my dress is ruined, can't wear it to the event I have coming up, so I'm out my money and a dress. I would have gladly not posted this review but the man on the phone who I spoke to about this did not want to help and they won't refund me either. Insane! read more

Very disappointed, I went to get my pants hemmed, and now the lining of the whole pants are missing. lol. Kinda of a hacked job. Make sure you're gonna understand what you're gonna get. Not only are my Air Jordan pants ruined but now it leaves crap all over from the lining being removed. The heck was she thinking? Just horrible. Those pants cost me $180. $25 dollars to destroy them. read more

Celestes Tailoring - Not only are my Air Jordan pants ruined but now it leaves crap all over from the lining being removed. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

David was very welcoming and accommodating! He did my measurements for a dress I needed done and he did it very accurately. They're very knowledgeable about their craft and take pride in their work! I'm coming back with my other pieces of clothing next week! read more

Fast and great service at a great price! Celeste was very nice and responded quickly. I had a dress that needed fitting for a short film, and she turned it around in a week. read more

The good: Quality and pricing. Very happy with the end result. Looks great and was fairly priced. The bad: It took 2 1/2 weeks. Worst of all, I was told the item would ready for pick up TWICE and both cases it wasn't. Thus, I made two trips for nothing. Also, her opening hours can fluctuate and although google says the store is open, it might not be. Conclusion: Good quality work that is fairly priced. Wouldn't recommend if you're in a hurry. Lastly, call before you head over to pick up to ensure it's done and store is open. read more

Great tailor! Altered a 1950's blue taffeta dress I bought online that was a little tight on top. She removed the unnecessary shoulder pads to create two panels to give me more room and replace the side zipper. Looks amazing and it's a perfect fit. Amazing price!! Highly recommend this tailor. read more

Great Tailor Friendly staff Great price Super fast Highly recommend They did in less then 3 days read more

If I could give more than 5 Stars I would! I walked in with a very time sensitive custom project and David delivered beyond my expectations and all the while had an amazing attitude and was extremely responsive and great with communication. I love to support my local businesses and I am so happy I found Celeste's. I will definitely be returning to have David work on future projects...a real find!!! read more

Took a two pairs of jeans and a few shirts to get some patch work and some hemming done. Celeste did an AMAZING job. Everything fit exactly how I had hoped it would and it was done quickly! I dropped everything off on a Sunday and got a call on a Friday for pick up. Also, prior to taking my clothes, I called around to several places for pricing and Celeste's was by far the best. Quality (check), pricing (check), timeliness (check). I never write reviews but I felt so compelled to write one this time. If you live near Culver City/venice/santa Monica/marina del Rey, please go to this place! read more

Celeste is the sweatiest and most professional seamstress in the west la area. She charges what you pay for and what you get are clean seams and nails it when it comes to altering a garment. She has venmo, Zelle and is open on weekends. There's only meter parking. Thank you Celeste for your hard work. read more

I found my new tailor on the west side! Came to them with pants I needed tailored same day for a dinner party. David had no problem with the rush job. Charged me an extremely fair price and hemmed the pants to perfection in one hour flat! I feel like I stumbled on a hidden gem with these guys. David and the owner are both so friendly and professional. You can tell they care a lot about their family business as well as their customers. Will definitely come back for all of my tailoring needs! read more

I have never in my life been so happy with having alterations and the amazing results as I am with Celeste's...I waited til 10 days before my wedding to bring my dress in to be fitted, hemmed, and have her create a custom low back created along with other details that come along with wedding dress shopping. My fiance brought his suit here as well to be tailored, taken in on the sides, hemmed, slacks tapered, etc. Everything fit like a glove when we came to pick it up less than a week later!! No more adjustments or alterations needed and Celeste was so helpful, sweet, and accommodating. She is a tailoring ARTIST and I will never go anywhere else. Worth making the 45 minute drive anytime. read more

They cannot do what they promise. I took in a dress that needed tailoring for a wedding. Took it in 3 days ahead of time, offered to pay rush price. I was told it would be available in 2 days. No one called or texted. Finally on the 3rd day, 15 minutes before they close for the weekend, I come in and the son tells me his mom did not have time to do it and had already left for the day. I had told her it was for a wedding the following morning! So now I had no dress to wear the next day and less than 2 hours before all the department stores closed to find a replacement. What really bothered me is that she left early when she still had pressing requests. I would have gladly waited for her to finish, but she didn't even bother to try. Unfortunately, this business cannot be trusted to meet their deadlines. read more

They/he - her son don't keep their word. Took a skirt to be expanded Celestine's son was at front, he went to the back showed her my skirt and asked his Mom how much it would cost he came back and told me how much she would charge and that I needed to get one yard of fabric. I go back around a month later with Fabric to have expansion of my skirt done and I reminded him of our conversation and price; he said he never talked to me; they wanted to charge me double the price of what they originally told me. I could be wrong but to me she and her sone acted non-chalant and like she didn't care if she had my business or not . I will find another good honest tailor. I feel like I can't trust them/him anymore - trust is gone. One should always be person of their word, especially when running a business. I am a repeat customer for years. Anyone know of a good tailor in the Venice/MarVista/Culver City area? read more

was affordable and quick. needed an emergency fix for work and they got it done in 20 minutes.

Celestes is a nice friendly lady but her work quality and time management is very poor. I had been going to her and I see her work quality getting worse and worse. Recently went to her for a dress to attend to a wedding party so I gave it to her almost 3 weeks earlier. I had to keep chasing her and called her to see when the dress be ready. Almost every time she would say ' I'm sorry, tomorrow will be ready blablabla.." So 5 days before the party I finally received the dress and i was very disappointed at the way it comes out. I spent $110 for the alternation. The dress was still way too big and it looks like it need alternation. Luckily i found another tailor who could redo it in just 3 days. So I had to spend another $100 to redo it and fix her mess. It was definitely an extremely stressful moment for me. And I had 3 other pieces I left to Celestes for almost a month. She originally said 2 weeks and then she told me her mum was coming so another week. I tried to be very patient and understanding so I waited. Finally I called and she said Wed so I called on Wed she said tomorrow would be ready. I went to her on Friday and she apologised to me and said she hasn't started working on them! Again she asked me to give her ONE more day. I decided to take my stuff back without alternation and go to somewhere else. If you have cheaper stuff and just need basic work like shortening and you have plenty of time you may go to her. But if you have high expectations and the materials are more delicate I suggest you go somewhere else as you may be as disappointed as I am. read more

Celeste is a magician with the needle and thread. She is caring, responsive to your needs. I gave her 2 days to tailor a suit I bought for a wedding. Not a problem for her punctual with perfection. She also did my step-daughter's wedding gown and the final fitting was absolute perfection. If you need tailoring check her out. read more

My straightforward tailoring jobs have never been finished on time and but I keep giving Celeste a chance since we're all human and none of my tailoring needs have been pressing. Now, the shop has been CLOSED OVER A MONTH and I can't get my clothing back. No voicemail available at the phone number listed and no sign on the door to explain. Of course I hope she's okay, but a relevant message on the phone mail recording or a sign would be helpful. My clothing is far less important than what I imagine could be going on with Celeste, but some communication- ANY communication - with customers who have their clothing locked up inside would be a minimum to expect. Celeste - Doubtful you are reading this, but 1) I hope you are okay, and 2) Can I pick up my clothing? I don't care if the work has been done. read more

See all

I've had a few things tailored by Celeste and overall she does a decent job. However, I feel the prices are a bit high. For example, I had an Indian skirt tailored that just needed altering in the length and slight fit in the waist and it cost me $105. if you are OK with these prices, then I feel that she can get the job done. read more

I have been coming here for many years. Celeste has helped me get extra years out of my work clothes by professionally fixing up all the little rips and tears. She and her son have also helped me out by fixing zippers, sewing on patches, hemming pants, and even putting new velcro on an old pair of sandals. I would definitely recommend Celeste and David for all your tailoring needs! read more

Ms. Celeste saved me and made me look good at my son's wedding. I had to get my suit altered within one day, I brought it in on a Wednesday at closing time and the suit was ready on Friday morning. In fact , she was just about to close and waited for me to get to her business location in Mar Vista to evaluate and see if it was even possible to alter it. Upon arriving, She opened the hem on jacket saw there was enough material to provide me the little extra space to button my jacket. Then she looked at the pants and saw there was available material and advised me she could to it and have it ready in one day. I highly recommend her, she did an excellent job and was very reasonable price. She was definitely an angel who saved me. Thank you Celeste! read more

Great service. Fast and friendly. Stumbled upon this place needing alterations done in a hurry and Celeste did bit disappoint. She was helpful and kind and did an excellent job with all of our alterations. read more

I love coming here, I love a female tailor + they are open 7 days a week. My stuff always is done so freaking fast 10/10

I have been going here for about two years, I have had to ask them to redo almost half of the pieces I've brought in, the pieces are never done on time. I kept going back because it's a small family run business and I as a small business owner I love to support. Yesterday I picked up some clothes I had dropped off and when I tried them on at home they were so tight I couldn't breathe in them. These were both expensive vintage, irreplaceable items. I went in today really sad and upset about it and she said "I don't know how this happened" did not apologize until I was about to leave. She offered to try putting a panel in of the fabric on the entire side of a dress which would've looked terrible. There were threads hanging off allover the garment where it was sewn. I had to ask for a refund, and I was shocked that she did not offer to pay me for the piece she ruined. I was supposed to wear the dress to a wedding and am now in a crazy pinch to find a dress. Extremely disappointed with the solution. read more

I hate leaving negative reviews but I took two items to be tailored and both I cannot wear. The dress and skirt I had altered are too short and too tight that I am unable to wear them. When measured I was I very happy with the fit and length. I am not sure what happened between fitting and the alterations as the items are too short and to tight. I took the dress back in to see if they could let the hem out to give me a half inch back and they missed the deadline. I had to call several times before being informed the dress was ready, the alteration took over a week and a half and I don't see any difference from the original short length. read more

I never had a tailor I liked, but everything changed with Celeste's Tailoring! It should speak volumes that I've been to her 3x in the past 3 weeks! She is kind, fast, hardworking, and I've received so many compliments on the pieces she has altered for me (3 pairs of men's pants recently). Celeste is a local businesswoman who should not be overlooked by folks in Mar Vista. Do yourself a favor and check her out! read more

Celestes Tailoring ... such a talented, efficient, pleasant, reliable and punctual operation. I am always very confident that I will be pleased with the results. Try Celeste's - you'll be happy you did ! read more

To the one-star folks, please try her again. This spot has really improved with the help of her son. They text you when your item is ready. They are more organized and responsive and have a good system now. It was just her for years trying to do it all. As a business owner I know that struggle. This is a neighborhood spot with a great family that works really hard. Yes, it can sometimes take a little longer than I planed but I am happy to support them. She does good work and I hope to see the shop continue to improve. read more

Pricey and rude lady , I ask some questions , she was not friendly at all , not to mention how expensive she was charging

Pro: Great price ($35) to shorten the sleeves of my rented tux. Con: Got charged $35 for absolutely nothing (i.e. they left one sleeve pinned where they were going to shorten it and the other sleeve was still long). I found this out after I flew to New York at the groomsmen photo shoot. Being the laughingstock of the groom and groomsmen? PRICELESS. This was after they missed their first eta and they swore it would be ready in time. I could not have known this was an issue since my wife had to pick up the tux the day before my flight. I would give this 0 or negative stars if possible. The 1 star may be justified simply because they were so gracious to refund the money they clearly never deserved. Save yourself the stress and heartache and support a different company that actually works for a living. read more

Our entire wedding party trickled one by one in theweeks before wedding with a suit and dress needing major alterations in 2 days.
