    Werner's Tailoring

    (26 reviews)

    I just can't say enough good things about Mr. Sarkisian, the owner of Werner's Tailoring. He has…read morenow tailored several pairs of linen slacks, some linen shirts, showed me that my leather jacket did not need tailoring (and showed me how the sleeves were supposed to be folded back, thus saving me at least $200) and more. The last items I left with him are silk velvet shirts that I've had for awhile, untailored, until I found someone I could trust with them. I read the reviews on Werner's and initially took in some of the not-dear pieces to see how they would come out. They came out GREAT that's how. He said he can also work on sweaters, so I have several of those to leave with him now. Others have said he's "a bit more expensive" than other tailors and I would say he's quite a bit more expensive. That said, you won't get handed back a ruined piece of clothing. You take your items in and get fitted and he does the measurements. You go back to get the items and get fitted again to check for accuracy. I'm beyond grateful to find Mr. Sarkisian because he is meticulous in his work. He has old-school manners and a quick wit. I'm so grateful to have made his acquaintance. Mary

    The best businesses are ones with passionate people that enjoy sharing knowledge about their craft…read moreand take their customer relationships seriously. Yuri is an individual who has clearly taken great care in refining his art- twice as long as I've been alive might I add (around 60 years total). In addition to his independent tailoring business, he has spent years working at high end Italian clothing stores (ask him about it!) When I came in to get my groomsman suit done he complimented the fabric quality and explained to me how it would behave with each alteration. We had an enriching dialog during the fitting process, discussion on how he could perform each modification to achieve the silhouette I wanted. Naturally he is knowledgeable on formal fashion and gave me advice on building my outfit including what to look for in good dress shoes. When he sat me down to discuss pricing Yuri was gentle yet firm. What you are paying for here is not simply the labor but the wealth of knowledge accumulated from tailoring suits for over 6 decades. This is a man who knows exactly what his skills are worth and has self respect to never compromise the quality of his work. With all that said, the price was higher than average but still less than I expected for someone of his expertise. If you came in here thinking you could haggle and get a deal, I'm afraid you've missed the point. Take your business to the dry cleaner on the corner so Yuri can spend his time working for people who have a true appreciation for his craft. Finally, you can tell that Yuri has a high level of respect for his customers by his time management. Once he accepted the job, "You will come back here on August 29th", he said. "And it will be ready." Every single other tailor or seamstress I've worked with has at least once not been ready when I came to pick up my clothes, telling me to "come back in a week" or "I'll do it today, come back later". Not very confidence inspiring when your tailor literally rushes to finish your clothes in a few hours. I came back to Werner's on August 29th, and true to word, my suit was ready. For those who care about technical details, I only had him do the hem of the pants, but on the jacket I had him shorten the sleeves by about 3/4" and he did a really nice tapered pinch. I have lanky arms so this greatly improved the silhouette of the arms, and the taper was very natural from the forearm up to the armpit so it didn't stress the fabric at all. To improve the waist silhouette we decided on adding 2 darts in the back. This was more difficult and costly than taking in the rear seam, but doing the latter would have made the vent spacing look awkward and the fabric wouldn't behave naturally around the shoulders. I was apprehensive because the jacket was a double vent, meaning the rear panel looks most natural when it falls relatively flat, so adding darts would mean it would have a contour and be at risk of unnatural tension. When it came time to put on the jacket however, I was absolutely elated. Yuri simply nailed it. Both of us stared at the back of the jacket for a few minutes before he threw his hands up and declared, "It's perfect!" It was almost too good because I had to make sure not to outshine the groom.

    I have never written a review before but the experience I had with Melanie of Details Sewing was so…read moreawful that I feel I need to respond. I had a very special dress I purchased for a cruise ship dinner "Dress up night" on my upcoming cruise. It was a blue satin dress with a blue lace overlay to just below the hips. I took it to Melanie to shorten the dress portion about 2 inches and take the "A" line look off the sides for a pencil skirt look. While I was wearing the dress, she pinned the hem and sides to what I wanted. The cost was $105.00. When I went to pick up the dress I was so shocked I couldn't come up with words. She did not hem the dress or take in the sides, she cut the entire lower portion of the dress off and hemmed it to the length of the lace overlay. I no longer have a dress, I have a lace tunic that I can't wear without a bottom skirt, pants, whatever. She totally ruined the dress. I asked her what was she thinking and she responded "Well, mistakes happen" I, of course, did not pay her. But now I did not have a dress for "Dress up night." My beautiful dress is gone. When I went to pick up the dress, she appeared to be experiencing emotional problems. I think she needs professional help.

    Melanie has done several projects for me: replacing a jacket zipper, repairing a torn pillow…read morezipper, and making a couple of custom seat cushions. She is timely in her delivery, honest with her pricing, and prompt in her communication. With the cushion project, she went as far as to go with me to the fabric store to pick out fabric and even used several coupons to get me a much better deal on all the supplies. Melanie takes pride in her craft.
