We love coco! Have been going here for years. coco never disappoints and always does a great job

Coco did an amazing job altering my scrubs! She was able to fill a very last minute request for me and I can't thank her enough!

I was pretty happy with this alterations lady and have used her for years when i need something fitted on me! But lately I think her workmanship is sliding...and as I know how to sew, I am very disappointed in the last thing I picked up! Why do I find people not wanting to correct garments the right way and sew them, fix them properly? I fear the art of caring about your sewing work is being lost as the generations move on to fast fashion...very disappointing read more

I rarely use alteration services but needed a bridesmaid dress altered for a wedding. It needed to be taken in in quite a few places, hem, shoulders, etc... so it was pretty involved. They did a great job and completed it quickly for a lower price than others in the area. If I need anything else altered I will definitely be back. read more

OMG! Hands down the best seamstress in the Southbay!!! I have taken so many different types of clothes to her to alter and she is the best. You can't even tell it has been altered! From jeans, tops, to dresses!!! THE BEST! read more

Coco's Alterations - Before and after!! From Meh to fun and sexy! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Friendly and efficient service. I had a loose and flowy dark blue and below-the-knee bridesmaid dress hemmed to above my knees. Alteration appointment was super quick. I literally put on the dress and she pinned it to where I wanted and paid. She even gave me the option of picking it up the next day, but I just opted to pick it up in a few days. The total cost of the alteration was 28 dollars, which to me seemed a bit steep...but then again I don't really have much to compare to since I don't really get things hemmed all that often. Overall, the quality of her work was decent and I am pleased with her work. I would probably come back here again for future dress alterations. read more

Coco is very good at what she does! I've take n dressed skirts with broken zippers . I won't trust anyone else altering my clothes. Thanks coco! read more

Have used Coco a few times. Never blown away but satisfied with her work, until my most recent experience. I took a few suit pieces in for alterations...pretty easy stuff...taking in skirts and lengthening jacket sleeves. When I went to pick up my clothes, there were three other customers waiting, two of whom were unhappy with her, one of whom told me that Coco lost the material she brought in to have a dress made. When she got to me I let her know I was there to pick up and handed her my debit card. She rudely pushed the card back, told me she only takes cash and moved in to the next person. After running back in with cash, I took home my clothes, only to find that the $280 suit she was supposed to alter (for which I paid $52) was not done. In fact it still had pins in it Took it in and picked it up a second time. Wore the suit for the first time today. The skirt is still huge and the jacket sleeves were let down too far and are uneven. Worse...she made a black ring around the hem of both sleeves with her iron. She is so unfriendly and unaccommodating that I'm just going to eat the $52, rather than go back in a third time. I hope the dry cleaner can get the black out. For what she charges and the fact that she insists on cash, she should be better and nicer about what she does. Never going back read more

Super fast, good quality repair on my favorite jeans. The lady here is really nice and funny. Definitely recommend

Heading to Coco's tomorrow to stitch up the crotch in a few pairs of shorts and boxers, a big pillow case, hoping to get everything back to new. Praying that Coco lays down the Moco !! and c noomes through like a champ! read more

Cocoa is amazing! I purchased a bridesmaids dress at a bridal store, and although I gave them accurate measurements, it was difficult to zip up. Since the wedding is out of town, it's nearly impossible to go back to the original store and get it altered. I was so nervous because I wasn't sure what to do. When I came in to show Coco, she told me it wouldn't be a problem and she could help me. My dress was ready in a timely manner and her prices are great! I'm so thankful I found Coco! :) read more

coco is the best! I trust her completely... and she has a heart of gold.

This place is amazing!! The owner is detail oriented and inexpensive! Best place to take my daughter's prom dress! Definitely would recommend this shop!! read more

Waste of a week. I would give ZERO stars. I came in early on a Monday leaving two new pair of jeans for just a hem. Didn't mind the ridiculous $12 per pair price and didn't mind a Friday pick up. Five days should be enough right? Well Friday comes and they're not only not done, but she now wants to do a rush job and for me to waste my time coming back in 2 hours. What a crock of sh*t. I want them done right and I'm going somewhere else. Add to that this business owner has zero personality and seemed completely annoyed at all times. Lady, you need to get some customer service skills and get your business organized. I'm not going back and I won't recommend her to anyone I know. EVER. read more

The bottom line is, I'm a hard to fit girl. I'm broad shouldered and muscular but my lower body is about half the size of my upper body. With that being said, pretty much nothing fits me. Nothing. Well, a fancy occasion is coming up and I was forced to be a big girl and go dress shopping. Hello torture. Anything that fit my shoulders could have easily fit a few of me in the bottom of the dress. At my wit's end, I searched Yelp for alterations places - hoping for magic. I saw the mostly positive reviews for Coco's Alterations and I headed down there as soon as I got off work. Coco pinned like crazy and I started feeling like she was making me a whole new dress. I was also nervous that the dress would be skin tight by the time I returned. But I told myself she's the expert and I needed to trust her. Coco was very professional and helpful. She saw how overwhelmed I was by this whole dressing up thing and she gave me advice and suggestions. She said I needed a belt with this dress and when I told her I didn't know where to go get a belt, she said Ross. I went to Ross after I left her store and ended up finding a perfect belt for $1.49. Score! Today, I went to pick up my dress. I was scared it would be too tight and I'd be disappointed. To the contrary, I loved it as much as I am capable of loving a dress. Thanks to Coco, I finally see the light. This is the end of me wearing ill fitting big girl clothes because I don't know what else to do. Thank you, Coco! read more

Coco's Alterations - My altered dress from Coco's Alterations - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Ladies (and some men), don't you hate it when your pants drag on the floor and you can't bend down with out flashing your chonies??? Run for Coco's alternations ASAP! She is direct, to-the-point and doesn't rip clueless girls( like me) off. Shoot, I can't even sew a button so I am pretty much at any kind of tailor's mercy. This place is affordable and has never messed up my clothes. She has fixed zippers on a skirt and shortened a dress. Recently, she hemmed three pairs of pants and took in the back of the waist in one. I just remember the three pants were $35 total. A steal. read more

You know that song, "I'm in love with the coco"? Well that song is about her because she is the best! Haha! First, I'd like to preface by saying that I am a very short girl and need almost everything altered, so upon moving to SoCal, it was necessary to find a tailor who did quality work at a reasonable price point. This is the place! I travel a lot for work, and Redondo beach isn't even my home, and yet I still make it here to get anything altered. Coco is a genius when it comes to altering dresses. She altered a very expensive Ted baker dress for me. It was too long, and she was able to utilize the zipper on it and hide it in the dress. How amazing! Since then, she's altered several dresses, and even rushed my scrub pants for me because I needed it for work the next day. Excellent service, quality work, and so cheap! Thank you for everything Coco! read more

I had recently purchased two pairs of uniform pants (airline pilot) at the crew store at DFW airport and had them hemmed there at the airport store. Well they turned out to be a bit short and I didn't have time to have them re-hemmed. Back home, having had a bad experience with Joseph Mattucci Tailors in the past, I decided to give Coco a try. She did a perfect job, same day, for a very reasonable price. The next time I went to see her was for my uniform jacket. The lining was in bad shape but the exterior was fine. I was thinking about just buying a whole new jacket but I called Coco and asked her if it was possible to replace the entire lining. She said no problem and had it ready for me in just a few days because she knew I needed it for work. So thanks to Coco I have a jacket that is like new for under half the price! The next time you need something tailored, give Coco a try. You won't be sorry! read more

Coco is the BEST in California. She is MAGICAL. I wanted my school jacket fixed and other dry cleaners ruined my jacket or they told me they couldn't do what I wanted. SUPER FAST COMMUNICATION! Coco is naturally skilled. She's amazingly talented. She fixed my jacket in ONE DAY. Wow! She made my Christmas. I wish I could give 1000 stars. THE BEST! read more

Finally I have found a good alterations person who charges a FAIR price. Took a dress in for something that required a creative fix. Other tailors told me it could not be fixed. I was BLOWN AWAY!!! at what a good job Coco did It was perfect, well exceeding my expectations. Also, left jeans for hemming and waist and the price charged was very reasonable. I am so happy to finally find a good alterations person. read more

They are great, no nonsense, and a fair price! Even when I brought a shirt back in to be adjusted more than I initially told them(wasn't on them to fix or they did it no problem. I bring all my shirts here for them to tailor. Update: Still 5 stars!! I brought in a shirt for Valentine's Day last minute and asked if she could have it for me the next day and she got it done. Thank you Coco and her team! read more

I had a pretty an overall good experience with Coco. I listened to the Yelp reviewers and decided to give Coco a try. She's easy going and has a dry sense of humor. She was very helpful and fast!. She sews very well and great with alterations. She has a keen eye for how to make the garment look great on the wearer. Please be sure to bring only cash or check for payment. Credit or Debit cards are not accepted. read more

I went in to have two items altered. She was very friendly and said she would have them done in three days. I asked if she could have them done a day sooner since I was leaving on a trip and she finished them by the next morning. Very pleasant, Very fast, excellent work and very good price. Take note, she does not accept credit cards. Cash only. I'm really glad I found Coco's'! read more

Coco is amazing !! I needed to get a fancy beaded evening gown altered . I got quotes from several tailors and the alteration cost as much as the dress . I was referred to coco's by a trusted friend . Coco's pricing was way better . But I worried that would reflect in the handiwork . But I had nothing to worry about , the alteration was impeccable!!! I am also short in stature and she has altered everything from Pants to lab coats . Wonderful work for reasonable price . read more

Coco you are a gem! Thank you! Very decently priced alterations, quick turn around time, and reasonable with her suggestions on the fabric and what is doable! My husband has brought his older suits and she turned them around! I have used her for my dresses, and romper alterations with great quality results! Thank you Coco! Xo read more

My sister and Mom recommended Coco, my family has been going to her for years. She is kind, professional and does incredible work! She worked around my deadline. I got my wedding dress and multiple pants done by her, and I was shocked by how amazing they turned out. read more

Coco is very kind and accommodating. I got a pair of work pants and the first tailor denied me and said he can't fix the pants. I found Coco's and she immediately said we will alter them until they fit perfectly. Highly recommend read more

I have had a good experience w/Coco in the past (except for her political complaints about democrats). I had taken jeans in to lower the waistband which Coco did, not realizing that the waistband would be larger when fit around my waist, rather than higher up above my waist. I was willing to just wear a belt but she told me to bring them back in. I had already paid about $30 to lower the waistband and then she wanted another $20 to adjust the waist. I thought she was going to comp the second adjustment since it was an oversight, but she insisted she told me that the waist should be adjusted and I refused, which makes no sense. Why would I refuse? I offered to pay something, but instead she said she wanted nothing and that I was not to come there again! She always seems cranky and unhappy, like the weight of the world is on her shoulders so hoping my new tailor has a more pleasant attitude. Her work is good but her attitude stinks! read more

A neighborhood gem! No nonsense, fair prices, timely turnaround, and most of all, fantastic skill. She fixed an awkward gap at the top of a very fancy dress super fast and beautifully! Same for a few pairs of linen shorts. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Whenever I need to get an alteration done, I come here. Coco is honest and quite funny once you get to know her. The previous time I came here to get a dress altered for a wedding, she told me it would take longer because she has a lot of prom and wedding guest dresses to alter. I wasn't in a rush so it wasn't a big deal but I'm glad she was up front about it. Honesty is important in my book. This time I came to get a bridesmaid dress altered because the top was too loose and the bottom was a bit too long (even if I were to wear 3 inch heels). The dress was ready on the date she told me it would be (which was about a week from the time I dropped it off) and when I tried it on, it fit almost perfectly. Coco did a great job! Alterations here can be a bit pricey though and she only accepts cash or check, so make sure to bring your check book in case you don't have enough cash! read more

I absolutely love Coco's! I take literally everything I buy to Coco and she works her magic. Prices are reasonable too! Thanks Coco for being a rockstar! read more

I bought a cute dress at Terranea, knowing I'd never be able to fit into it as it was. But I just could not resist the beautiful fabric. Coco altered it for me... changed the tiny dress into an amazing skirt. She did an absolutely beautiful job. The fee was reasonable and I am very happy. read more

Coco is so creative. For example, I love when I bring say a dress in that's not quite working for me any longer. She can look at it and quickly determine what to do. So I end up with the dress for another season or two. read more

Coco is amazing! Always makes you look and feel amazing! I always get compliments when I am wearing something she has custom tailored to me

I see mixed reviews about Coco but I absolutely love coming here to get all my tailoring done. She has been doing tailoring for my husband and I for the past 8 Years. Prices are always reasonable, everything done on time and you can pay with cash or check. Coco might not come off friendly initially but she is actually very sweet and does a fantastic job. I once came in with a hole in my skirt and she fixed it for free since it only took her a few minutes. My husband had a suit tailor made that was butchered and coco brought it back to life! I highly recommend her to all my friends and family. read more

got jeans hemmed here. great job. only thing they dont take credit cards, cash and venmo. read more

Coco did an amazing job altering my dress for my sisters wedding. She altered my high-low prom dress into the perfect maid of honor dress. I asked her to take the extra fabric from the high-low and make cap sleeves. I have her the freedom to make it look nice. She did an even better job on the dress than I expected. I highly recommend her for any of your alterations needs. Pricing is very reasonable too. Take a look at the before and after on my dress. read more

I've taken things to Coco, my cute and friendly tailor from Romania before, she has always done an excellent job for me in getting my clothes to fit just perfect! This time around, I needed to have a black suit jacket repaired because the sleeve needed redoing as the thread holding the sleeve to the suit was coming undone and you could see the white fabric underneath. She said she would have to remove the sleeve and pull out the extra material underneath and resew it. As I came back to pick up the finished product, I was going over in my mind whether I had enough cash on me to pay for it. I was hoping the cost would not be over $26 and was reasoning with myself the max it could be is $36 and if so, I'm covered! She then said to me "that'll be five dollars." I had to bite my tongue from blurting out "that's all" for fear she would raise the price!!! Coco is great! She does great tailoring and she is also a very friendly and amicable person! Go see Coco for your tailoring needs as she does a truly excellent job! read more

Coco is magic! I'm on the petite side so I find myself constantly frustrated when the clothes I buy are just too big! I took in a Nicole Miller dress and a Guess jumpsuit, both of which were made for someone taller and bigger boned and Coco adjusted both of them to fit on me PERFECTLY. She had them done on time and with attention to every little detail. I will definitely go back. She is THE tailor to go to. Thank you Coco! xo read more
