I had such a great experience here! I needed my prom dress altered last minute, and even though she was extremely busy, she still made time to help me and got it done so quickly. The dress turned out absolutely perfect and fit me so well. She really cares about her work and her customers. I'm so grateful for how kind, professional, and talented she was. I would come back here and highly recommend! read more

So expensive but did a great job. I paid more for her work than I did for the product (Poshmark) LOL. It's always nice to support a small business. read more

Sima is efficient and does great quality! I ordered a bridesmaid dress in a size 0 thinking it would fit. With only three days before the wedding upon delivery, It was too big. She got it done quickly and even pressed it for me. Thank you Sima! read more

I highly recommend Sima's Tailor and Tuxedo to anyone looking for a bespoke suit that combines elegance, comfort, and personal style. I received a lot of compliments.. read more

Sima's Tailor & Tuxedo - Custom-made suit. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

Excellent tailoring service at very reasonable prices! Sima is the real deal. My hemmed pants look great and fit perfectly. Thanks Sima.

Not sure what I love more the tailor or her tailoring! Sima is so sweet and her work is great. Just moved into the area and had a whole bag of clothes needing some fine tunning and she got it all back to me in record time. I would trust her with anything - she's even reconstructing a pair of pants for me and they're looking amazing, cannot wait to wear them. read more

My husband lost weight and didn't realize his tuxedo was ill fitting until the day of an event. He ran the tux over to Sima & Sima called in 2 extra tailors to get the job done. The jacket never fit that well, even when it was the appropriate size. Sima worked tirelessly to make sure it was done right and on time. Thank you Sima! read more

Sima did a great job steaming my dresses. I came in just 2 days before the event and she was able to get it done in time for me. Definitely recommend. Great customer service. read more

I had a pair of pants from Dubai that tore, and even my mother--who sews--told me they were beyond repair and should be thrown away. But knowing I couldn't replace them, I was determined to find a way to restore them. A friend referred me to Sima, calling her the best tailor in the world. From the moment I walked in, Sima was incredibly kind and welcoming--it felt like talking to my own mother. She assured me the repair wouldn't be an issue, which gave me peace of mind. When I picked them up a week later, I was absolutely blown away. The craftsmanship was flawless--you couldn't even tell they had ever been torn. I am beyond impressed and grateful. If you need a tailor you can truly trust, I highly recommend Sima Tailor & Tuxedo! read more

I needed to get my jacket tailored ASAP. It was memorial weekend. I was happy to see that Sima's was open. She takes her work seriously. She showed me how she tailors a suit. It's no easy fix. She had my jacket done when she said she would. And she said it WILL look nice. I am forced to buy clothing bigger than I am because I'm tall and lean. XL in the arms & medium in the torso. I was happy with my results. It fits perfectly. Thank you for your work. read more

I just had a rush job on a seersucker suit that needed alterations. She was able to get it done in plenty of time for my trip and special occasion. I have had many suits, sports coats, and pants altered or repaired at Sima's. Top quality work and while not the most inexpensive, it shows in the workmanship. This is definitely a top notch tailor shop that also does custom (bespoke) work. I highly recommend them if you need tailoring work done. read more

I can't get over how satisfying my experience here was! I had two pants - one taken in, and the other taken out. Both were done in such simple yet effective ways you can barely tell there was any work done on them... but they now fit great! Highly recommend! read more

Wonderful work. Bring cash if possible. And double check time. Otherwise Sima does great alterations.

Sima has excellent reviews, and she was introduced to me by one of my favorite boutique owners. She has high standards and a keen understanding of current trends. Unlike other tailors, she takes pride in her work. I love her positive attitude toward clients of all ages read more

Wow! Just picked up a suit Sima did some alterations on. Hemmed pants and waist. Hemmed sleeves of jacket. I got gouged! If you patronize her it would be advisable to ask how much she intends to charge. Unreasonably expensive. read more

Sima is the best!!! She did a fabulous job on my ho to suit and perfectly tailored several shirts as well. She is an absolute joy to visit and work with!!! read more

Even if I didn't work just across the street I would STILL make the drive to see Sima - she is absolutely wonderful, a joy to deal with, and she does EXCELLENT work...always on time and extremely reasonable as well...bring cash if possible and please support this wonderful business and person!!!! A+A+A+A+A+A+ read more

Once again, Sima has outdone herself (which I didn't think possible). I was leaving on trip to Europe for a month and about 2 weeks prior, I walked in with quite a few things, including 2 gorgeous dresses that needed to be hemmed but that have multiple layers of fabric and are made of very delicate material. I told her I knew it would be so much work and that it was totally ok if they didn't make the deadline and somehow she managed! And let me tell you that what the quality and craftsmanship of her work was impeccable as always. I was soooo incredibly happy and grateful. Thank you once again read more

I was referred to this business while purchasing a suit at a retail store. After communicating by phone and text with Sima, my wife and I visited her business. Sima quickly assessed both my wife and my needs, advised us of the price, determined the exact date we needed the tailoring competed by, and sent us on our way. We were very impressed by Sima and were confident we had made the right choice. After picking up my suit and my wife's dress, we were extremely pleased at the quality of work, and could tell we had made the right decisions to place our trust in Sima's Tailor and Tuxedo. Sima is truly a master at her craft. We will refer anyone crossing our path that is in need of tailoring. read more

I went to Sima when I realized the tuxedo for my best friend's wedding needed to be updated. However, I realized this 6 days before I was to depart for the wedding. Sima got me a beautifully tailored custom tuxedo and shirt in 5 days. I am so grateful for her. I felt so much more confident and got many compliments on my tux throughout the evening. I will definitely be returning to Sima for further suits and alterations. read more

Love Sima! She is very talented as a tailor and very helpful. She is funny too. Highly recommend!

Fantastic wedding dress fix in a rush. Sima is talented and has a wonderful personality. She saved my day! I will be returning to her for all of my alterations read more

Sima did a great job, I had two suits that needed extensive tailoring and she knocked it out oddly the park. I also had a pair of pants that had a major rip in them I thought they were a lost cause but Sima was able to fix them good as new! I highly recommend!!!! read more

I procrastinated getting my tux for a wedding and Sima was able to get my Tux ordered and super altered last minute.

Sima is in a league of her own. She knows exactly what to do and her quality of work is incredible. She was able to turn something around quickly and beautifully! So lucky she's close by. read more

I was hesitant to leave this review but I don't want anyone to experience what I experienced. I was referred to Sima's by a reputable bridal shop locally. The second I walked in I felt uneasy. I stated I was Afghan, like her and I got no emotion. I continued to tell her that I got a dress from LA that I needed altered. She told me to try it on. I proceeded to tell her I want to make the dress more modest. She said "we're not in Afghanistan". I asked, what do you mean by that. That I don't have to cover up. I said I don't care about people, I like to be covered. By covered I mean covering my chest and adding sleeves or straps.. I told her I couldn't afford her pricing ($600 for simple mesh sleeves), respectfully and she started to get defensive and thought I was saying she wasn't worth it. I left the shop uncomfortably and kindly and she aggressively pulled me back inside. I said there was a difference in someone not affording a service versus not respecting your time and quality of work. I didn't like the way she treated me, was unprofessional, and she practically begged me to lower her prices and leave my dress and in her own words not ruin her relationship with the bridal shop. I have worked in customer service for over 5 years and I have yet to come across someone so blatantly disrespectful, aggressive, and unprofessional. I am trying to pick up my dress today during working hours and she is with a customer. I asked for my dress back and she said she started working on it. At least she did the courtesy of letting me pick up my dress. I will pay top dollar for both quality and customer service. Especially for an occasion where I simply want to look elegant for my sister's wedding. And no she did not start working on it, she lied. read more

I get all my alterations done with Sima. Quality work, good turnaround time. highly recommend.

Love love love Sima! She's honest and articulate in her work. She's done so much for me from simple hems to making a couple of things a bit larger lol out of thin air! She takes a size 12 and makes it a size 4. I cannot rave enough about Sima. She goes out of her way to take care of whatever your needs are. read more

I have had hems shortened and vents added at 3 other tailors around OC and Sima does the best job by a far margin. Check out the inside and outside of the vents in the pic below read more

Sima is not just a Tailor, she's also a personal shopper for me. What a great find and treasure Sima is. You Probably drive right past her shop every day on PCH in Laguna and wouldn't even notice her shop. It's in the heart of Laguna and I always appreciate very easy. I tell her what I'm looking for and she finds beautiful choices and usually has other recommendations as well. She tailors them to fit me perfectly and helps me look even better when I dress up and go out. Stop by her shop, talk to her and look through her catalogs with her and she'll get a sense of what you like and what will look good on you. Thank you so much Sima, I can't wait to see how nice my next purchase will be. read more

THIS IS A REAL REVIEW FROM A REAL CUSTOMER. READ THIS ENTIRE REVIEW to understand why you don't want to go anywhere else. I had this emergency situation with my company's uniform (it did not arrive on time) and was forced to modify all the older pieces I had in order to get back to work. It was imminent that my pieces be ready before 11 AM Thursday in order for me to catch a flight later in the afternoon so that I could go back to work on time. Some of the pieces have extensive work to be done, including a special treatment that my uniform required. So, not only Sima produces them on time and before my deadline the night before, but she also had to drive to LA and back to install that special detail. Then waited for me until 9 PM to come pick it up. The garments were done within the finest European tailoring standards and certainly surpassed any and all quality that I have seen to date. Many thanks! Devan read more

Absolutely love Sima! Came to her with a last-minute tailoring need for my suit and shirt for a friend's wedding. Dropped it off to her on Thursday and my flight was on Saturday morning. She not only had the suit and shirt ready for me Friday afternoon, but also had everything pressed and even took out a stain on the shirt that I had forgotten about. 10/10 would recommend her! read more

Sima is such a nice person and amazing tailor! She tailored pants and a shirt for me for a party that looked awesome. Then she completely repaired a suit jacket of mine that the main back seam had fuzz and had been broken. The collar had been shrunk because of bad dry cleaning and she was able to repair that as well. In addition to that she also purchased and tailored a shirt for me for my wedding. Again can't recommend her enough. She is so nice and everything I've ever taken to her has turned out perfectly. read more

Sima was fantastic. I needed a dress fitted for a black tie event in less than a week. It wasn't an easy dress either! Probably two sizes too big for me, Sima perfectly kept the shape of the dress and it's elegance but made it fit like it was custom for my body. It was a Giorgio Armani dress that I couldn't have trusted with any other tailor! She's a magician. Look no further! read more

Sima did an incredible job tailoring the lehenga I wore as a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding. The skirt and top were both far too big but Sima made them fit perfectly. Despite the intricate beading, she hand-tailored both pieces seamlessly. Thank you! read more
