Foroogh is absolutely amazing! She's incredibly kind, attentive, and truly talented at what she does. My dress was very loose, and I needed significant alterations--but she made it fit flawlessly. It honestly feels like the dress was custom-made just for me. Every interaction with her, both over text and in person, was such a positive experience. I really appreciated how she offered thoughtful suggestions while still making sure my preferences came first. She made the whole process feel easy and collaborative. If you need alterations for your big day, you can trust Foroogh completely--she will exceed your expectations. Thank you so much, Foroogh! read more

My partner brought in an athletic long-sleeve shirt that was too long and too loose, and Foroogh (the owner) was incredibly polite and respectful both over text and in person. She initially quoted $60 to shorten it with professional-quality work, plus an additional $70 for alterations to improve the fit. He decided to go ahead with just the shortening, and Foroogh promised a two-day turnaround which she delivered right on time. To our surprise, she completed the additional fitting services at no extra charge after learning he is a college student. The craftsmanship was flawless, you genuinely can't tell the shirt was altered at all. Excellent service, exceptional quality, and a truly thoughtful business owner. 5/5, highly recommend! read more

I reached out to Foroogh through Yelp regarding a dress I needed tailored for a ball I was attending. I only had about 6 weeks to get my dress altered and ready for the ball, so you can imagine how stressed I was about the whole situation. She was really quick to respond to my inquiry and really easy to schedule with. With very little time, Foroogh turned a dress I found at the mall into a dream gown that I felt so beautiful in!! She is so sweet, has such an eye for detail, and such professional. She gave helpful suggestions and saw aspects of my dress that needed to be adjusted that I couldn't see myself. (This is the first time I have gone to a seamstress for anything aside from my wedding, so I don't have a trained eye.) Foroogh gave me really helpful suggestions that made wearing the dress the night of much more comfortable because I didn't have to worry about all those things she considered at my fitting. I was able to enjoy my night not having to worry about how my dress looked or if it was fitting right because I knew it was tailored with care. She also hit my really urgent deadline and made sure I had my dress on time. If she was frustrated at the time constraint, she never even showed it because she is SUCH a professional. I cannot sing her praises higher, she is the only one I would trust with the gowns I wear to special events. Foroogh is such a dream to work with. She's currently working on another gown for me and I'm excited to see it when it's ready! read more

Faroogh worked on my tuxedo for my wedding - this is the 2nd suit I've entrusted with her (the first being a suit I bought in Italy). She always treats my suits with the utmost care and pays attention to details that I've never seen any other tailor do (I've used 3 or 4 other ones in the bay area). You know that dream suit that makes you feel like a million bucks? Faroogh's superpower is making that a reality. 100% would recommend her for getting that suit perfect for your next event. read more

Foroogh did an amazing job on alterations for my TWO dresses for a destination wedding. She is meticulous. She made suggestions on how I should wear the dresses and how they should tailored to fit my body. I'm so incredibly happy with how they turned out. This wedding was stressful enough to prepare for so it's wonderful to find someone who is so meticulous and talented. Knowing they'd be done correctly alleviated so much of my stress. Thank you Foroogh! read more

Nice and quality service. I had a small job but it was done per schedule & quality workmanship.

I cannot begin to explain how grateful I am for Foroogh! She worked on both my mom's beaded gown as well as two of my wedding looks. Foroogh is honest, communicative, and overall so wonderful to work with. I had a last minute gown change and came to her 2.5 weeks before the wedding with a very complicated new dress and a mini dress for her to work her magic on. Her attention to detail is beyond and everything turned out perfect! Thank you, Foroogh! read more

I cannot rave enough about Foroogh and her quality design! Foroogh was such a pleasure to work with designing my custom tailored wedding suit. From the very beginning she took the time to understand my vision. She explained her ideas, the timeline and created a versatile design if I wanted to ever change the look of my coat. She not only delivered quality work but she exceeded all expectations for the final product. On my wedding day, I was wearing a one-of-a-kind crafted suit and felt so proud and happy wearing it. She perfectly tied in my cultural elements to a modern suit. I received so many compliments that day and even after our wedding day because of all our pictures. Lots of people asked the question, "Where and who made that suit?" The artistry of Foroogh is unmatched and I can't wait to work with her again in the future. I appreciate her talent and I highly recommend her! She won't disappoint. Thank you Foroogh! read more

She calmly explained the changes that were needed and completed the task efficiently and in a timely manner.

I was a block of granite and she sculpted me like Michelangelo. read more

Foorogh did an amazing job on my graduation dress! The top of my dress was too loose, to the point where it would have been very noticeable in my pictures and graduation ceremony. I felt nervous about getting my dress altered, but I immediately felt comfortable when meeting Foorogh, I knew my dress would be in good hands. My dress fit perfectly when I tried it on and it looked as though the dress was purchased that way. Thank you for helping me feel beautiful for my pictures!! read more

Foroogh did a beautiful job altering both my wedding gown and my moms adorable walk through jumpsuit. I had a lot of alterations to do after a mishap with custom changes made when I ordered my gown (it arrived with a fit and flare skirt versus column skirt... there was no time to get a new one). So I went to Foroogh and trusted her to transform my gown back into what I had envisioned. She snatched it in and reconstructed the skirt exactly as I wanted and I felt like a goddess on my wedding day! And my mom looked so chic, everything tailored to perfection :). read more

I needed my bridesmaid dress altered on short notice. It had to be taken out a couple of sizes at the waist and bust, and hemmed to the right length.

The dress fits perfectly, and I received so many compliments on how well it looked. I'm so impressed with her work and attention to detail. Highly recommend! read more

Foroogh did great work on creating an inner lining for my Supreme North Face Windbreaker where the previous material was peeling. Completely fixed the issue and actually made the jacket more cozy and wearable again! Charged a very fair price for the great work and it came out better than before!

I couldn't thank Foroogh enough for helping make my curves shine in all the right ways. I bought my dress at a sample sale and it fit decently off the rack, but I am not as full below the waist as I am above, but she made some magic happen. Although unexpected, I was pleasantly surprised she finished 2 weeks earlier than I thought! Came in for a fitting and was able to take it home! Also, she designed a 13 point bustle for my giant train AND helped me make a mini tutorial video for my bridesmaids to study so that they knew how to pin it up (with narration might I add). Prices were comparable to others, but service and quality was outstanding. Thanks so much for helping me feel the most beautiful I've ever felt and probably will ever feel. read more

I've been waiting for my wedding to post this review; we ended up postponing our wedding for about a year so I'll update with pictures once we do get married! Foroogh was quick to respond and incredibly professional, when I brought my dress in I mentioned my concerns and she knew exactly how to fix them; my dress also came with a shoulder cape and NO way to attach it. She created loops for me and walked me through the process of attaching the cape, she made sure to do it in a way that added extra strength as well. Her turnaround time was about a month; I've heard horror stories of people having to wait a long time for their alterations to be done so I got my dress in pretty much as soon as it arrived, when I had about seven months until the wedding (at that point). It was such a quick and affordable process, I'll be bringing any other clothes that need alteration to Foroogh! read more

I contacted Foroogh on Yelp to get a quote to make some alterations on my evening dress. She asked that I come in-person so that she can give me the price. She is a lovely woman, very gentle with great ideas. I did not use her service due to the fact that it was more costly than I wanted to spend on the dress. But I bet she does lovely work for your costly outfits which need better fitting. read more

I brought my suit here for alterations and Foroogh was very professional and responsive. She was able to tailor my suit to perfection! I can tell by talking to Foroogh that she has a lot of experience with men's suits, and it also shows with her work. Thanks, Foroogh! read more

Foroogh does beautiful work and she is a kind person. However she took my too-big dress in way too much and it wouldn't zip. She said I gained weight, but in addition to losing weight I lost 2.5+ inches. She worked on the dress over the next few days to get it to zip, letting it out as much as she could but the fit was still too tight. In addition the bra cups she added made the fabric gather and buckle in the front rather than laying flat. When I pointed it out to she replied that I hadn't told her before implying there was nothing she would do...and charged me full price ($50 for bra cups?!!). At that point I needed to be done and sensed she did too, so I didn't push it. Thinking positively, i figured the stress of the situation was clouding the way I felt about the dress and once I had the wedding, I'd feel differently. Now months after the wedding I'm still bothered and saddened that the awesome dress I found was altered to fit poorly. Every time I look at the photos I'm reminded of this. I was uncomfortable in the dress and am disappointed with the tight fit, making me too busty and squeezing my back fat to spill over. I hate writing less-than-positive reviews so to leave it on a positive note perhaps Foroogh could take measurements and use a fabric marker (rather than relying on using fabric clips, which could move) and have fittings before the fabric is cut to ensure the proper fit. read more

I am so so so happy with Foroogh's work on my wedding dress!! I ordered my wedding dress online and it was wayyyy too baggy and not flattering to my body at all. It was easy to message Foroogh and I got an appointment with her the same week! Her attention to detail and professionalism is what I appreciated the most. I am so thankful for Foroogh as she was flexible when had to pick up my dress a few days earlier due to scheduling conflicts and she easily accommodated. When I came back for my fitting, the dress fit so well and was so flattering on my body. She added a discreet bustle to my dress which was so helpful during our off-site wedding photoshoot. Thank you so much Foroogh!! read more
