Got my pants tailored here. Quick turnaround when nobody else could do it in the timeframe I needed which was great but don't think it's the best fit or exactly what I was looking for. $60 which is what I was quoted or slightly higher compared to the two other shops I went to read more

John is an amazing tailor and has very reasonable prices! And he works fast. My whole family loves to work with John! We bring every type of clothing to him and they always come out great! read more

Seem like all good reviews are for the previous ownership. Very unprofessional, very sloppy work and very rude. Don't recommend!

Took a pair of jeans here for a simple hem. Got them back and they're too short with one leg shorter than the other. I took the newly altered hem out myself to see if they were salvageable. My poor jeans are a mess with the original fading on the left hem line completely cut off. Ruined my pants. See pic read more

John Custom Tailoring - Seriously...? - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Quoted me one price, when I came in the price had then doubled. Incredibly rude and unhelpful. Immediately left, will not do business with someone like that. read more

John's like a hidden gem!!! He does the best job and will get it done as soon as you need it. I'm not sure how he gets it done so fast and still does the best job and on top of it his prices are great. My sisters recommended him and now we all go for pretty much everything :) thanks! read more

Incredible work! He (John?) was able to fix a broken zipper on a beloved dress and alter a skirt to fit me perfectly. I am very impressed. I highly recommend this place! read more

Isabel is absolutely amazing!! I've had evening gowns altered, pregnancy clothes modified, jackets taken in.... she can do it all!!! My husband also loves her work and he's extremely hard to please. Highly recommend her. read more

I've took a few simple things here for a hemming earlier this summer. Came back for a two jumpsuits that were a little too big and fit funny. Alterations were perfect, quick and priced right! Highly recommend! read more

I recently found Isabel - and I have to tell you that she is absolutely amazing! She is VERY detailed and extremely talented. In addition to tailoring a few tops for me, she recently altered my twin daughter's ballet costumes. The costumes needed to be taken it, and the back of the costume came up too high... what looked like a complicated alternation was very easy for Isabel! She did an absolutely beautiful job!!! I give Isabel my HIGHEST recommendation! read more

My mother and I have been Isabel's customer for a few years now and she has consistently been so great ! Her job is very neat and she always has great ideas that have made many of my dresses, blouses, pants, skirts and even my office white coat look great on me. One time she turned a size 8 dress (bought on sale;) into a size 2 that fit much nicer than the actual size 2 out there ! She has the knowledge and the touch ! She sure knows what she is doing and is great at her profession. Thank you Isabel ! read more

John Custom Tailoring - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Isabel is amazing & can tailor anything you need. I had a pretty tricky dress situation- fabric was very fine so I was worried about hemming it but it turned out amazing & exactly what I wanted. Efficient and reasonable pricing. I suggest everyone go to Isabel!! read more

Isabel has been altering our family wardrobe for a few years now and she is a true artist. She does everything from simple alterations to a complete transformation of dresses. I had a sequin evening dress that had an open corset back that I wanted closed. Isabel took piece from the bottom as the dress needed some shortening and used that piece to close the back. It honestly looked like that dress was made that way! I couldn't believe how great it looked. She also altered my friends wedding gown. My friend got a dress that did not fit right and Isabel managed to alter that dress to look perfect. Honestly if you need a tailor this is truly the absolute best place to go! read more

I am looking for Isabel. She did amazing custom work. I know she moved locations in Brentwood a couple years ago but now I think she moved again. If anyone knows where she is or how to locate or do at e her please let me know. Miss her custom work! Thank you! read more

Isabel is the best! I had her alter my wedding dress last year and the fit turned out perfect! I brought in photos, she listened to what I wanted and made it happen. I now go to Isabel for all of my alteration needs. She does great work and her prices are very fair. My husband also goes here to have all of his pants and shirts hemmed. No complaints! Thanks Isabel! read more

The only place I'll go to. She's so sweet and quick. And such an amazingly decent price as well. I drive from Hollywood to go see her. Isabel's my favorite read more

Very kind woman. She is helpful and listens to what the clients needs. I would recommend her to friends and family, definitely a 5 Star experience! read more

I found a Paul Smith men's blazer that I absolutely loved and decided to buy it even though I'm a slim but curvy woman and therefore the jacket fit a bit boxy. I took the blazer to Isabel and in 24 hours she transformed it into the perfect jacket and she did it without disturbing the uniqueness of the blazer (the fabric has sashiko embroidery in places). I intend to bring in a handful of button down shirts next. Her expertise turns off-the-rack into bespoke. Fantastic! read more

I have been taking my clothes to Isabel for years and she has never disappointed. Her talent with anything from haute couture to homemade is impressive. She has fixed pants, dresses, shirts, suits, sewn curtains, and even made 22 Jedi costumes for my son's birthday party. She's fast and friendly and affordable. Don't hesitate to trust her with your items. I sent my friend there for a mother-of-a-bridal gown fix and it turned out perfectly. I wouldn't trust anyone else. read more

I brought a comforter to Isabel and asked her to stitch it down since the inside was getting bunched up. Without asking, she cut it open and threw out the inside of it. Then she told me she would be able to get a fabric for it the next week to fill it, and that she would give me a call. I never heard from her stopped by after about three weeks. She said she hadn't gotten around to it and would give me a call soon. Again, I didn't hear from her, so I went in again over a month later and still nothing. Then, she told me I could go downtown, buy the fabric, then bring it to her. She couldn't actually tell me what I needed or where to get it. Isabel had my comforter for over two months. I ended up just buying a new one and will not be returning to Isabel. read more

I'm so glad I found Isabel! It's like I a have a new wardrobe! Isabel updated so many of my best pieces that I thought I'd never wear again. Most of my pants, dresses and jackets were either too tight, too short, too long, or damaged, and Isabel fixed them all beautifully. I'm pretty fussy about my clothes looking good, and now I recommend Isabel all the time for great tailoring and alterations. read more

Isabel is hands down the best tailor I have ever been to. She's extremely talented and well priced. Her ability to do either a simple hem or complicated alteration is impeccable! I highly recommend her. read more
