So happy to have found Deepa! My sister in law purchased a sari and matching blouse fabric for me, but it was my first time attending an Indian wedding so I was clueless on what to do with the fabric. Deepa completely took care of me. She measured me once and created a beautiful, perfectly fitting blouse. She chose the perfect trim and embellishments too. Note that this is a lovely home business, so not to take any lack of good phone etiquette as a sign of anything negative. You're in good hands with Deepa! read more

I know this review is a departure from the other reviews. But I would like to share my experience. I called to speak to the tailor. A man answered the phone. He did not answer as a business, he just said hello. I asked him if this was the tailor shop. He said his wife is a tailor. I asked if I could please speak with his wife. He responded as follows: "Why, what do you want?" He was very kirk and rude. From the moment he answered the phone, I found it difficult to talk to him. I don't know how this tailor stays in business. In any event, I terminated the conversation after this gentlemans abruptly asked me "What do you want?" It should be obvious. I wanted to speak to a tailor about my tailoring needs. read more

I went to Deepa because I needed to have two saris fitted for my brother's wedding. Her work is exquisite and beyond detailed. When I went to the wedding, all the women were blown away by the work she had done with the pleating and blouse...all of it! It was truly above and beyond. Lovely family and I cannot wait for my sister-in-law (who is Indian) to visit because she was so impressed, she would like to have some saris of her own tailored by Deepa. Great family owned business. read more

Deepa and her husband were very accommodating and her work is impressive. I took two sarees I ordered from Amazon to have the unstitched blouse pieces made into blouses and Deepa completely transformed both sarees into ready-to-wear dresses. She not only made blouses out of the fabric provided, but she lined the blouse and the skirt piece so I don't need to wear a petticoat or cropped tank top underneath. She also sewed the pleats in permanently so all I need to do is hook the skirt in two places and pin the throw to the blouse. No need to watch any tutorials on how to to put on a saree! I purchased the sarees from Amazon for about $25 each and the tailoring was $85 each (cash only), but the cost is completely worth it! She can turn things around within a couple days, but I was in no hurry so I picked them up about two weeks after dropping them off. I will need one more saree for the Indian wedding I am attending and I plan to go back to Deepa if I need alterations. Contrary to other, probably slightly older reviews, Deepa does speak some English. We were able to communicate just fine when I was trying on the sarees and her husband was not in the room, but his English is superb so it was helpful to have him there for the consultation - I didn't try anything on when I dropped the sarees off, but she did take my measurements and explain what she would do. She works out of her apartment so send her an email to schedule an appointment. Even though it looks like there is parking on National right out front, it's actually a no parking zone so park on a side street. read more

Deepa does extraordinary work. She has an eye for design and embellishes her saree tops beautifully! I had a piece of Indian material that needed to be created into a Saree top, and she transformed it beautifully and even added some gorgeous embellishments. It also fit perfectly. If you are looking for a tailor for Indian clothes, this is your best choice!! It is a lovely family business and the work is top notch- support family business and have the best tailoring work done at the same time... what more can I ask for? Highly recommend this business! read more

Deepa did such an amazing job making a blouse and adding false to a sari my mom had given me from India. I've had pretty bad experiences with blouses being made in the U.S., so I was a little nervous, but I was blown away at the quality and attention to detail of my blouse from Deepa. Not only did her blouse fit perfectly, but it was higher quality than all of the blouses I've had made in India. I highly recommend her! read more

I don't even know where to begin - this was an amazing experience from the beginning to the end. It was very easy to get an appointment. The work was beautifully done. The choli and ready-made saree fit me amazing... perfectly. The workmanship was phenomenal. Her turnaround time was so fast. And the price was very low. I would definitely come here again. read more

They clearly advertise that they do blouse stitching, but when I called the man was instantly dismissive and said he didn't do anything like that and he didn't know anyone who did. I happened to have him on speaker phone and someone listening suggested it might be a racial thing - I don't know. I'm not Indian, so maybe he only works for Indian customers, but it was very strange and gratuitously unpleasant. read more

Loved the detailed work and high quality that Deepa provided. I had 5 saris finished (added the fall and did the finishing), 3 petticoats ordered (Deepa color matched, purchased the material and stitched the petticoats), 3 blouses altered and 1 blouse stitched from scratch. Everything turned out perfectly and I am very specific about the fit. As well, I felt very comfortable getting measured and working with Deepa. It was very easy to be honest with her and tell her exactly what I wanted. And she was helpful in guiding me in designing the sari blouse too. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

They did an excellent job altering a difficult Indian outfit for me. Deepa tailored the top which was completely oversized and had no shape. Her fit was perfect, I was impressed. The price is very reasonable and the work is neat and precise. They are very accommodating and flexible with scheduling. I am sure her skills extend beyond Indian clothing as well. Thank you Indian Ladies Tailor! read more

Deepa is amazing! She works out of her home in west LA, and seems to be able to stitch or alter anything. She stitched me a maxi dress and made a kameez/kurta for my daughter (2 months old). The work was neat, her prices were reasonable, and she completed everything promptly. She also hemmed a dress for me. Deepa doesn't speak English but her husband does a great job mediating. I will definitely come back when I need shalwar kameez or anything else made/altered. read more

Deepa is easy to get an appointment with, responds promptly, and provides very high quality work. Every stitch is perfect. You will not find anything at this price point in the US. I will now be trying to convince my in-laws to use Deepa instead of their overpriced tailors in the valley and Artesia. read more

Deepa does a great job. She and her husband are very responsive to emails and calls. She works out of her home in Palms and is very flexible with appointment scheduling. I asked her to stitch three sari blouses for me and all of them fit very well - you can tell she pays a great deal of attention to detail. I had to get a couple of the blouses altered slightly after trying them on, and she did so on the spot during my fitting. She returns the items in a very reasonable timeframe, so if you need something urgently, she will likely be able to get it to you. Her prices are very reasonable, especially compared to tailors in Artesia who charge twice as much for the same service. A great option for those who are local and don't want to make the long trek to Pioneer! I will definitely go back in the future if I need other items tailored or stitched. read more

Deepa did an amazing job stitching my sari blouse. She completed it on time at a reasonable price. This is a young husband wife couple that keep very flexible hours. Thank you! read more

Deepa did a beautiful job tailoring my gorgeous sarees and chutidars. She did it quickly and charged a very fair price for all of the hard work she had to do in order to maintain the integrity of each delicate strand of fabric. Her husband was also very joyful and kind. I highly recommend deepa for your tailoring needs. She also makes custom blouses and sarees; check out her collection when you visit her. read more

Deepa is really awesome - very friendly and professional. She stitched 4 blouses for my saris and also did hemming work on the saris. She made sure that the blouses fit me perfectly. The prices are reasonable, and she had them ready in less than a week's time. I totally recommend her to anyone looking for a nice tailor for Indian women's clothes. She went out of her way to make sure she had the right materials for my blouse. I am very satisfied with her work. read more

Got my bridesmaid dress altered here (just shortened) and it was half the price quoted elsewhere (cash only). The business is a young Indian couple with very flexible schedule and they are very responsive and do a great job. read more

I needed a sari blouse stitched for my baby shower, and didn't want to go all the way to Artesia to get it stitched. I was happy to find that there was a tailor in the LA area who could do the job. Deepa did a wonderful job of stitching my blouse per my measurements. She is super fast and her pricing is way more reasonable than what they charge down in Artesia. She's also very sweet, quick to respond to emails & texts, and it's easy to get an appointment with her. read more

quality tailoring, reasonable price, professional service, and a less than 24 hour turnaround. highly recommended for a quick fix!

Both husband and wife and pleasant and go out of their way to provide exceptional help and service. I would definitely revisit them for tailoring related needs. read more

Deepa is great! She made a blouse for me in just 4 days. Prices were fair and work was impeccable.

Deepa is amazing with Indian clothes. What she made, fit like a glove. She also altered some ill fitting tops for me. She finishes the work in 48-72 hours if she knows you're in a rush. So glad I don't need to drive down to Artesia for this stuff! read more

I was impressed with how quick and easy it was to have my measurements taken, and custom sari top made. Quality work at a good price.

Deepa and her husband are very responsive to calls and were very accommodating with my busy schedule and continual changes. The work was completed quickly and perfectly with one of my sari blouses adjusted on the spot. Very nice people, spectacular work - she takes great care in her work. I will only be coming here and highly recommend her. read more

We were unfamiliar with Indian tailoring before this and not sure what to expect when our beloved bride-to-be sent my daughter (soon to be sister-in-law) a packet of yardage with instructions to get it stitched! YIKES!!! But when I saw my daughter in the finished sari, I got all teary eyed with happiness; it was absolutely perfect in every way. Deepa lined it, color matched everything, created a beautiful ready to wear sari that fit exactly to measure, somehow made the pattern show to its very best advantage. Best of all, my daughter can get in and out of it without assistance and it drapes beautifully; not sure how Deepa was able to get all those yards of fabric to fall JUST SO, but she did an amazing job. Communicating with her was just fine -- easy, accurate and comfortable and her husband is lovely as well. 100% recommend her; we live an hour away and there are closer ladies' tailors, but if we ever need Indian tailoring again, I will be happy to make that drive again. Totally worth it! read more
