    Tuxedo from Golden Needle Tailoring provided excellent
    Anjelle L.

    John @ Golden Needle Tailoring provided excellent service, quality and value for my son's Junior Prom. He was skilled, efficient, and professional. Our first experience renting a tuxedo. We loved that it was local. Besides the impeccable service they also gave us an amazing deal- $250 prom package, we got a custom tailored designer Michael Kors Tuxedo for my 6'2 son, that included tuxedo, vest, dress shirt, cufflinks, bow tie and dress shoes (size 13). Highly recommend John and Golden Needle Tailoring for your tailoring and formal wear needs. See you next year for Senior Prom John!

    The Ritz Gown in caviar by Selkie. Im 5'3" and not wearing any heels. Dress looks exactly the same, just shorter.

    Very happy with my tailored dress. It's a Selkie dress, the caviar Ritz gown. It's made for taller people, and Im 5'3 inches. The tailor made sure to clarify where I wanted the dress cut, and did not start until he was certain about what I wanted. I appreciate that. He was able to finish it the same day. Definitely bringing all of my Selkie dresses here for tailoring.

    The proprietor of this long standing local business customized a suit for me in 24 hours. I couldn't be happier.

    I collect vintage clothes and I've taken a 40's tuxedo, a double breasted suit, and a 30's belt-back suit here.

    A very reliable tailor near Berkeley, and the only one I'll be going to until I move!…read more I got my dresses hemmed and it was done perfectly. The stitching was on point! It looked as if that's exactly how the dress came in. At the appointment, the owner takes the time to understand how it's supposed look, and how you want it to fit. After the appointment, it was very easy to communicate with the owner. He responded promptly and was transparent. I had to schedule a last minute hemming request and it was done on time! If you're in a pickle, just call and see if he can do it. He will not schedule an appointment if he knows he cannot get it done on time, which I appreciate for being direct. I'll definitely come back but this time without any last minute requests!

    Gabriel is truly the best there is. I've taken countless items to Gabriel from traditional vintage…read morePalestinian thobes, evening dresses, pants, etc and he always approaches each item with care & attention to detail. He's very kind, understanding, and is a master of the craft. Below is a recent before and after of a vintage thobe I thrifted that needed some love. It was originally way too large for me and I wanted to convert to short sleeves & lose the 70s shoulder poof without removing any of the handmade cross stitch embroidery. The after picture speaks for itself. The thobe fits perfect with all the right details I wanted Thank you as always for the excellent work!
