Tl;dr: If you have a thing for clothes and want to experience the "best of the best" (in every…read moreregard), Jerry and Ivan at JB Clothiers are the guys to see. Period. From the first call to the final fitting - and their post-delivery followup - every aspect of my experience with them was aces. In too much detail: Absolutely fantastic in every regard - JBC isn't merely the finest tailoring Los Angeles has to offer - it's literally a "Destination Clothier." This is going to be a long review - but then again I had a really wonderful experience, and in so many ways, that I can't sum it up quickly. Personal background - I have 25 years' experience selling exotic cars to very high net worth clientele in Los Angeles, and I am very aware of a what a luxury experience looks and feels like. So I sort of walked in the door "loaded for bear." My other experiences had the veneer of luxury, but not the substance of luxury nor the quality of product. A glass of wine doesn't overcome the fact that the end result is a disappointment. Anyway - I could no longer find clothes "on the rack" that were made of fabrics I wanted (sport coats and suits in particular). I had tried two "made to measure" clothing stores (Suit Supply and Indochino) and been disappointed with the results, so I searched for a literal in-Los Angeles custom tailoring service (where I could consult *directly* with the tailor - not just an on-site rep for a tailor half a world away). After much deliberation, I made an appointment with JB. I must admit I was somewhat skeptical by this point, when I arrived for my first consult, even after all my investigation. The feel of JB Clothiers is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find when I walked in for my first consult. After meeting Jerry (the founder/proprietor) and his partner Ivan, I had great confidence that my research had paid off. The conversation about what I was looking for and how they could achieve it was quite in-depth (and I actually learned a few things about my taste). Jerry and Ivan suggested subtle ways of "expanding my taste envelope" while still well within my taste bandwidth. There are myriad choices to make - and with each one I was getting more excited to see the end result. The measuring process was thorough and precise, having me adopt different postures and re-measuring many times. I was there for the better part of an hour. About a month later, Jerry called to set up the first fitting appointment. I about died when I saw my coat for the first time. It's gorgeous and not so much a coat, as a garment, I think. The details are exquisite - and they are everywhere, beyond the special embroidery you'll be offered. It is quite literally a work of art. We tried it on, and made various adjustments, and I left not sure I'd be able to wait until it came back. Long story about how I Dunning-Kreuger'd the first alterations, which were literally put back on the 2d fitting. Sorry I wasted your time, guys. But by this time, I was so hooked on both the product and the experience, that I added a matching pair of slacks to the coat, turning it into a 2-Piece Suit. Going back the third time, I picked up the pants - they are not only gorgeous with the same attention to detail as the coat, but they fit me unlike any pants I have ever owned IN MY LIFE. They are utterly incredible. Fantastic! At the last fitting all of this was immediately and obviously worth every penny and every second of time. And admittedly, I'd added considerably to the time by the alterations I thought I wanted in the first fitting. I have tried this suit on with nearly every shirt/tie combo I can put together - it it so wonderful! This experience was very much a splurge for me - and I plan to do it again as soon as I can. Yes - I spent about 50% more than I would have for a Canali suit off the rack. But I got 5x the suit as a result. I'll never again waste money on clothing - what JB made for me is a lifetime investment, and no clothes I've ever had fit that description. Really not sure how to better convey my enthusiasm than to say I can't wait for the next time I decide to tread myself and add to my wardrobe. At the end of the day, the expenditure at JB will actually saved me in the long run - no more wasted money on clothes that are sorta "close enough" but never right. And no more wasted time trying to find them, either. Did I mention I love this suit? I love this suit! And I had a total blast along the way! Thanks guys!

This place is nice but maybe a little overrated…read more Jerry's not a bad guy and probably not a bad salesman. I thought I was coming in for a consultation, and I liked the fabrics and patterns we came up with, but he was disappointed that I was not ready to throw down $4,000 for the custom suit that day. (He convinced me that anything cheaper in his shop wasn't worth my time.) I can see why he likes to close the deal the day of. The more I thought about it, the less comfortable I felt throwing down than much for this suit... I had a few other reasons, too. Anyway, I sent a message to the store the next day, politely explaining why that I appreciated Jerry's time, but the shop wasn't for me. Jerry ended up calling me, and I wish I hadn't answered. He started trying to get me to get his cheaper stuff that had already talked me out of. He was pushy, dismissive of my reasons and all around unpleasant. I think they have some off the-rack suits available, too, and I believe they offer tailoring, but I am no longer interested. He'll probably respond to this and be dismissive again, but those are my two cents. He has a nice assistant. I won't pretend it's bad quality. Still three stars.

I didn't have time to order another one, so I went all over--to Men's Wearhouse, Friar Tux, and Macy's--but couldn't find the right tuxedo the same day at a reasonable price. Before giving up, I called Hollywood Suits to ask if they had tuxedos available. I was lucky that Oscar answered my call. He went out of his way to text me photos of what they had in stock. I went over about four hours before my event, and they had several great options. Oscar helped me find the right size, and they even offer alterations right in the back for an additional fee. I found a tuxedo in about 15 minutes, and they altered the pants in 30 minutes. They truly saved the day.

She was patient as I tried on other styles and even gave us an extra hour to make sure I found the right one. I ended up with a unique gown featuring straps, a square / curved neckline, and a dramatic train with a petticoat underneath. Chloe's mom, the owner, was equally amazing. She picked the accessories, crown, and veil me that fit my vision on the first try. The whole process felt seamless. You really know a place has expertise when they can read your vision clearly and quickly. They seemed to know what I was looking for without dragging things out. It's clear why this family-owned business has been around for so long. Thank you so much again!

My first day wedding dress shopping, Bella Wedding was only my second stop. I had already tried on…read morea number of dresses that day, and while there were some beautiful options, I hadn't found the one or even one that felt close. I knew exactly how I wanted my wedding dress to feel: timeless, classic, simple, and with a tasteful wow factor without too many frills. Fortunately, Chloe was the one helping me that day. I described my vision to her, and she said, "I know just the dress." She still brought me several other options first to make sure she truly understood what I was looking for. Then, the last dress she brought out was the one she had in mind. It was exactly what I had envisioned. When I put it on, I had a feeling I honestly can't describe "it was just perfect". I purchased the Maggie Sottero Giselle Lane with the overskirt, which gave me two beautiful looks in one dress. Chloe truly has a gift for this. She listened to what I wanted, understood my vision, and somehow found the dress that was in my head before I even knew which dress it was. Every time I returned for a fitting, Chloe's mom took wonderful care of me. She always made me feel comfortable and at ease, and she gave me such thoughtful words of wisdom about the dress and the wedding day itself. That kind of personal attention made the entire experience even more special. If you are planning a wedding and shopping for your dress, Bella Wedding absolutely needs to be one of your stops and I have a feeling it may be your last. The level of bridal support, knowledge, and service here is something special. They have truly refined their craft, and you can tell they know exactly what they are doing and most importantly they love doing it. Chloe and her mom are the ultimate wedding dress duo. I'm so grateful that Chloe was the person who helped me that first day and that Bella Wedding became part of such an important experience in my life. Thank you Ladies!!!

They've altered two long-sleeve barongs into short sleeves (one of which I purchased from their shop). I've also had shorts hemmed and a zipper replaced. Overall, I'm very happy with their work.

This business is great for standard tailoring, hemming. However, if you're looking for creativity,…read moreskill, and time management do NOT come here. If you're looking for typical and traditional barongs and boleros they're also great, however if I had known what I knew before coming here i would have been better off ordering from barong world and barong warehouse, etc, and yes I am pinay. My reason for a low rating is I researched Filipino dressmakers and signs pointed to this business. I brought my request and vision to FDM in March 2023, my wedding was December 2023. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and we drafted a plan. First red flag was she suggested satin for my top, to which I was thinking it would just be used for the filipiniana sleeves. My inspo pic that I wanted did nit have satin. Anyway Before i left my initial appointment she said it would be "ready" around June. I text her in July and she said theyre not going to start on my clothes (and my moms) until August. 2nd red flag. Come October she texts me my top is ready and i'm excited because FINALLY. I went to try the top and its all satin. Definitely not my vision; the top is thick and i cannot move in it because satin is unforgiving and non breathable. And i told her from the beginning this will be the outfit i will be changing and dancing into after my wedding gown. By the way the pants are not ready yet. Also I need to buy more liner for them. So i return weeks later (as im driving back and forth norwalk to hollywood) to drop off the material. At this point this is now a mercy project because even though I came 7 months earlier they did NOT start on my wedding clothes until now. Im hoping for the best for my pants. 2nd week of December my pants are ready. My wedding is also 22 days away at this point. It's a nightmare. The crotch was too high and the waist was tight. I also lost about 20 pounds from my initial measurements so that was confusing. I also asked her to put an elastic waistband as the design is for a palazzo wide leg with pleats look. There wasn't any of that. I tried to make suggestions to see if we can add/ change the pants but of course "theres not enough time." I return 15 days before my wedding and they make some changes but it's still terrible. No matter how many times i put it on, trying it with leggings and shapewear the quality is just poor with bad stitching and i'm scrambling in my head how to rescue my vision. Because I was already worried about the result of my outfit I ordered white pants online from various retailers as a substitute, and thank GOD I did. They came in on time, but remember the stiff satin blouse? That also became a nightmare to work with. Here is why I was furious: 1. I trusted a professional, yes she's a boomer but I still put faith in her experience but I should have been more specific and made detailed suggestions and maybe even show MORE photos. Or maybe even took more direction, but I'm also not the professional dress maker here. ALSO, in my experience constructing a tailored dress from scratch takes time! This is why I came to her in March/April. If something didn't work out, we could make changes to the material or design. The fact that my items were NOT fitted 1-2 months before my wedding is not excusable. Her excuse was that they had other orders that needed to be finished before mine and my moms. (fortunately i was able to suggest another added piece to my moms fit that made it look better than the original.) 2. My money, time, and gas were wasted. For my pieces alone with the fabric I spent around $700. Also driving from Norwalk to Hollywood each time to be disappointed was not fun. Thank God I was able to find another seamstress in orange county who could fix my satin filipiniana 6 days before the wedding. I'm ready to close this review and not look back. I will add that my husband's custom barong ($300) mom's clothes (all satin ensemble costing $500) ended up fine, and nice, but my mom is older and forgiving. I hyped her up a lot lol. As for my vision and those who want something modern, be warned and very careful coming here. All I will say is this, thank the Lord for Shein. Still give this business a try. However this was my honest experience for the services I was seeking and I will not be returning.
