In the initial consultation, she explained how everything is made, the differences between the types of fabric, and helping me choose the selections for my tuxedo. I had lots of fun going through all the options, and she made sure all of my measurements and fitting was perfect to the tee. Not only did I look great, I felt great. I will definitely be coming back to Balani and Daphnie again in the near future!

I am told by my eye doctor that I have perfect color vision. I am told by my wife that I have no…read morecolor sense whatsoever. Both are correct. My life is one series of "what ARE you wearing?" I felt doomed when it came time to have a suit made for my son's wedding, but doom turned to immense relief when I met Ebony Taylor, stylist, at Balani Custom Clothiers. Ebony Taylor's encyclopedic knowledge of fabrics, styles, bits and pieces, buttons and more, combined with her vast experience reduced what appeared to be an impossible task to simple decisions. Grey or blue? Grey. Wild or tame? Wild. Sunroof? Sure. The result was not only a suit that fit perfectly first time, but an entire outfit including shirts, ties and a top coat. But, Ebony Taylor wasn't finished. She kept in touch with me throughout the wedding days, and periodically checks in to see how we're doing. Extraordinary service and more a partnership. My vision, her taste! Perfect.

Can't even begin to say the amazing five-star experience I received from Imparali!! I had found…read moreImparali through Yelp and so glad I did because Matt Imparali and his dad are absolute gems!! A long-time Houston family planted in Houston and have been in business for prob over forty years or so! Father and son business and I came to them to have some jewel appliqué embellished jeans hemmed because I'm a petite 5'1 girly and it's hard to find jeans that fit! I called them on Easter weekend and they were about to close shop early for the holiday weekend but I caught them right before closing and they agreed to stay open just long enough for me to get there and drop off the jeans. I arrived and Mr. Imparali (their dad) stayed after just to measure my hem and then the tune around time was quick! Just a few days later we picked up the jeans and they even expedited it for us. Excellent customer service, above and beyond, and precise, dependable work on the hem! I'd highly recommend them and use them in the future! Just the sweetest family honestly!

After years of going to random tailors to get my jeans, shirts, dress pants, etc fixed.. I have…read morefinally found a tailor that has earned my permanent business. These guys are top-notch and know exactly what they are doing, I came to Nick Lopez to have a tuxedo completely cut re-cut and fitted to my body. I'm a short guy and so finding a suit in store that fits me just right is near impossible. I came in contact with almost every single person at the shop, and they were all so welcoming and pleasant to work with. They remember my name when I come in for services and always double check their work when I try my pieces on. I was most impressed with the work they did on my tuxedo, I came to pickup my tux on a Thursday, one day before the gala I was expected to attend. After trying on the tux, just when I thought it was perfect.. these guys were not happy with the final outcome. I didn't ask them to re-do the work, they asked me if they could take it back and make the necessary changes they felt were needed. I was a bit worried about dropping it off since the event was the following day but I gambled and trusted them with my pieces. Most people probably do not have the time to go back and forth, time is precious, but I was able to work around my schedule because I needed this to fit just right. I came back the following day, just a few hours before the gala and I do not regret having them take it back for some more work. The tux fit perfectly! Snug in all the right areas (DAT ASS!!). Of course everything that is done with high quality care also comes with top dollar costs. NLT is a bit more expensive than any other place I have been to but the services are so amazing that I am willing to pay whatever it is to look on point!

She was very friendly and said that she could get it done by the weekend if I took it to her that same day I live in ROUND ROCK. She's in North Austin.

She's very nice and very accurate on her measurements to alter my suit. Her pricing is very reasonable and she did it quickly. When I went back to pick up my suit. It was Taylor perfectly just in time for the wedding. I was in. Well, I don't recommend waiting until the last minute. If that does happen, Sarah is a perfect shop to go to.

I brought in four pairs of jeans to have the inseams shortened and paid extra for original-hemming…read moreservice. This was intended to be a test run before bringing additional tailoring work to this shop. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with the quality of the work. While the original hem appears to have been reused, the execution was sloppy and did not meet my expectations for a paid original-hemming service. Issues I observed: * Multiple loose threads left untrimmed throughout the hems * Thread bunching and messy stitching at several locations * Rough finishing and excessive bulk where the side seams meet the hem * Visible inconsistencies in the stitching and reattachment seam * The hems do not hang naturally and tend to flare or stick out at the bottom, giving the jeans an uneven appearance when worn * Overall workmanship appears rushed and lacks attention to detail For an additional charge, I expected a cleaner, more professional result. Instead, the finished product looks noticeably altered and falls well short of the quality I expected. After my experience, I read through other reviews and noticed that several customers appeared to report similar issues specifically with jeans and denim alterations. Had I seen those comments beforehand, I likely would have chosen a different tailor for this work. It was disappointing to find that my experience did not seem to be an isolated case. I considered returning to discuss the issue, but ultimately decided it was not worth the time and effort. My time is more valuable than pursuing a correction for a relatively small dollar amount. This review and taking my future business elsewhere is sufficient. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this tailor for denim alterations, particularly if you are paying extra for original-hemming service. I would recommend looking elsewhere for a tailor.

Messed up my $400 Japanese selvedge denim. I wish they would have not touched my clothes…read more I called earlier in the day asking if they could do a chain stitch hem. The man who answered assured me they could. When I arrived, I asked the front desk attendant to confirm if the chain stitch hem could be replicated and 1.5in be shortened from the inseam. She confirmed with the tailor that it was possible. When I came back I was very shocked to see the 'original hem' job they performed. They folded my 21oz denim onto itself and sewed three layers together to shorten the inseam. I have no idea why they would think this would be appropriate for the thickness of the denim. It looked ridiculous. After I expressed my dissatisfaction, they cut the stitches to undo the hem and refunded my money. Unfortunately, they left all the threads for me to remove by hand. The stitchwork they did also ripped up the denim in a very ugly way- I now have 3 lines across the bottom of my jeans: at the hem, 2in, and 4in height. These jeans were a special Christmas present from my wife but now I'm just sad when I look down at them... I sincerely wish you would have called to confirm with me what you were going to do once you realized you could not do the hem as requested.
