Super nice lady who does a great job. Fast and fairly priced. She even fixed my hem that a different tailor had done-for FREE. Will go back

Custom Tailoring By Fernando

I have been looking for a decent tailor in my neighborhood for years. And I feel like I finally…read morefound one. I've tried other places because Im 5'1 and require a bunch of alterations given my height. I found Fernando's and took a bridesmaid dress there to take in about 2" since I lost weight from the last wedding I wore it in. Fernando's made it easy to obtain my new measurements and they altered it to perfection. Im very happy with the results and will definitely be back to get my other daily wear and suit items hemmed and altered. Thank you again Fernando and team

I purchased an off-the-rack evening gown which was about 2 inches too long. I was only in LA for…read morethe weekend and the party I needed the dress for was only 7 days away. I figured I'd call a local tailor to see if they did same day alterations to save me time of trying to find one back in the SF Area. I called a couple tailors late on a Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and most shops were already closed. Luckily for me, Tailoring by Fernando was still open, and in the area I was staying. I gave them a call an a woman answered, she sounded extremely busy but she said if I could get there before 6 pm (it was already 5:15 pm), then she would take a look at the dress and see if she could get it done the same day. We arrived to the shop around 5:50 pm, she looked at the garment and said she could have it hemmed by 7. I put the dress on and she marked it up, I pre-paid the cost via Venmo (cash only place), and I was on my way. She noted she'd text/call me when it was ready. I got a little nervous when I didn't hear from her around 6:50 PM but just around 7:00 she sent me a message that the dress would be ready by 8:00 PM. The work was great and she also steamed the dress for me. I felt the price ($65) was reasonable for the alterations to this evening gown, which was a rush request. I had my dress altered and steamed within a couple of hours! This definitely saved me time, money, and stress!

I called last minute hoping for a possible same-day alteration on a wrap dress I planned to wear to…read morea holiday party that very evening. From the start, she was honest, professional, and refreshingly transparent. She didn't promise me the sun, moon, and stars -- instead, she clearly explained that with her current workload she couldn't guarantee anything, but if I was willing to come in, she would take a look and see if there was anything she could do to help. When I arrived, she had me try on the dress, and within minutes it was clear she was both experienced and highly knowledgeable. She immediately put me at ease by explaining that the dress wasn't as problematic as I thought and that the design was meant to drape a certain way. At the same time, she validated my concerns about the fit, managed my expectations beautifully, and presented thoughtful options -- including a couple that didn't even require her services. Ultimately, she suggested adding a discreet clasp to provide support and concealment without compromising the cut or flow of the dress. She completed it in under five minutes, using a transparent clasp and perfectly color-matched thread. The craftsmanship was seamless. She charged me a very nominal fee, and when I tried to tip her, she insisted it was too much and even handed a few dollars back. Talk about integrity -- fair, honest, and truly old-school. I absolutely loved the experience and will most definitely be back.

UPDATE! This business is CLOSED - per Alla today via message. Unclear how long. I had come by twice…read morelast week for a hemming, but both times was closed. What a sad loss for the community. I guess I will have to find another tailor elsewhere.
