    I had an AMAZING experience. I needed a dress tailored for my brother's wedding with a quick turnaround. The dress was kind of difficult. They made it perfect, listened to all my requests and gave it to me at such a great price!!

    Dress bunching by zipper

    I got a bridesmaids dress tailored for a wedding there. Very simple hemming and taking in the bodice. I had no idea what it would cost and feel taken advantage of. They charged me $150 for just that. I'm shocked at all the good reviews which is what took me there. I tried it on in the store and everything looked good but just tried it on again and it's bunching by the zipper in the back. So on top of feeling ripped off I feel like the work was not that great. Would never go back.

    I had a sequin gown altered at the bottom and he did a phenomenal job! I also had a pair of vegan leather pants altered and they were done perfectly. Thank you!!!

    I bought a second hand wedding dress online and needed to get it tailored. I didn't want to go to a wedding dress specific alterations place because I knew the mark up would be crazy. I found JV Tailor on Yelp and gave him a call. I went with my wedding dress same day and he thoroughly looked the dress over after I put it on. He's very detailed oriented and listened to me on what I wanted and didn't want. What he tailored: - the puffy sleeves so that they would hang correctly on my upper arms and not slip down - the front of the bodice that kept wrinkling and not sitting flat while wearing the dress, he tailored the front to sit flat - hemmed the bottom of the front of the dress and the sides a little so that it hit right above the floor perfectly Price: The price he quoted me was fair considering all the work he put in to altering my wedding dress over several appointments. Overall I'm super happy with the finished product. When I first tried the dress on, I didn't feel good about it because it didn't look good on me. But after he altered the dress, I really did in fact love the dress since it was fitted to my body after his alterations. He also worked quickly and timely. Highly highly recommend! Added some after photos.

    Reasonable prices and great tailoring. Tailored my civil wedding dress to fit like a glove! Took off the train it came with, brought in the waist and shortened the halter drop to fit my body.

    Wonderful affordable tailor. I had my wedding dress tailored and it fit perfectly. I let the dress venue convince me to go up in size but quickly realized the mistake I made since the dress had to be completely reconstructed. Jose did a great job altering the dress without compromising all of the beautiful detail. Went through 3 fittings, even up until a few days before the wedding, but he made it fit perfect. Highly recommend

    Jose is the BEST. He is kind, patient, communicative, incredibly talented and a hard working father to top it all off. Jose was able to help me with a special sewing project that required fabric cutting, patten edits etc and he did it better than I could have imagine and also did it so fast it blew my mind. I walked into 5 places before going to his store and I knew just from his demeanor that he was legit and if you can't tell from what I wrote above...this man is the truth he is literally HIM. Can't wait to go back to him with my next project :)

    Custom Tailoring By Fernando - Sizing alteration on the skirt

    Custom Tailoring By Fernando

    I purchased an off-the-rack evening gown which was about 2 inches too long. I was only in LA for…read morethe weekend and the party I needed the dress for was only 7 days away. I figured I'd call a local tailor to see if they did same day alterations to save me time of trying to find one back in the SF Area. I called a couple tailors late on a Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and most shops were already closed. Luckily for me, Tailoring by Fernando was still open, and in the area I was staying. I gave them a call an a woman answered, she sounded extremely busy but she said if I could get there before 6 pm (it was already 5:15 pm), then she would take a look at the dress and see if she could get it done the same day. We arrived to the shop around 5:50 pm, she looked at the garment and said she could have it hemmed by 7. I put the dress on and she marked it up, I pre-paid the cost via Venmo (cash only place), and I was on my way. She noted she'd text/call me when it was ready. I got a little nervous when I didn't hear from her around 6:50 PM but just around 7:00 she sent me a message that the dress would be ready by 8:00 PM. The work was great and she also steamed the dress for me. I felt the price ($65) was reasonable for the alterations to this evening gown, which was a rush request. I had my dress altered and steamed within a couple of hours! This definitely saved me time, money, and stress!

    Alterations costs have skyrocketed over the years, with the quality actually going down. Not by…read moreFernando! As a petite girl I always need alterations on newly purchased clothing. Fernando always gets the job done right with my dresses and jeans. Other alterations in the area typically cost $10-25 more. I highly recommend Fernando.
