Designer Tailor

Ando is the definitive expert tailor. Bring in your suit, sports coat, or blazer. Don’t say a word. He’ll know what to do.
I brought in very nice wool sports coat from Brooks Brothers, and he sewed on new buttons, took-​in the waist, closed the vent, and lengthen the sleeves: all at his own suggestion. What makes him an expert is that, in addition to craftsman skills, he knows how suiting should fit & look and is able to make it happen.
Of the five tailors I’ve tried in the Sacramento area, he is the best and I will take in all of my jackets and suiting to him in the future.

Ando did a fantastic alternation on a business suit. I was very happy with the result and at a fair price. He was very professional — producing the exact results he planned. I highly recommend Designer Tailor for alterations.

Found Ando today after going into my long time tailor and being completely blown away by the price I was going to be charged to add a piece to a dress I purchased. Ando worked with me on the price and I ended up saving 15 dollars. That’s a lot for one garment in savings! Glad I found him. He did a lovely job with my simple fix and I am very pleased with his work. Thank you Ando!

Ando recently saved the day for me when I brought in an altered mother-​of-​the-​groom dress from another tailor that had not been properly fitted. Given the special occasion I was quite upset, but he immediately knew what to do and turned the alteration around quickly to meet my deadline and at an unbelievably low price. I am so thankful I found Designer Tailor and will definitely be taking my business here in the future, and referring family/​friends!

This shop is AMAZING! Reasonably priced and this gentleman really knows what he’s doing. Recently had my wedding dress altered and while I was a nervous wreck he made me feel comfortable with his handiwork and confidence. The work was done quickly and I had no issues at all which as I understand is pretty unusual for wedding dress alterations. No matter, my experience was great and I highly recommend this shop.

Ando recently altered my wedding dress and a few other dresses for me. He was so kind and helpful. His work is top notch and I’ll be going back there soon I’m sure!

Ando is hands down one of the best tailors in Sacramento! He takes the process of tailoring a pair of pants or a shirt to a whole other level. It is a science to Ando because he has been doing it for so long and he will fit any garment exact to your body type and style. My body type does not allow me to buy fitted jeans or pants straight off the rack, when I found Ando he was able to give me advice on what to look for and buy and then bring in to him to get the desired look I was searching for. I recommend Ando to everyone who needs tailoring done!

Twas two nights before Christmas and all through the hou, I worried about not having the holiday trou. Alas I called Ando right out of the blue. He invited me in for the measurements to do. Within the hour he had me sized. Within 24, I had new tailored trou. and was ready to dance to any old band. The cost was fair, the result a delight. I’m one happy customer on this Christmas night.

this guy is absolutely amazing. I had a work function to go too and I needed an extremely long dress cut for a 5“0 person. Went in and he assured me it would be done in 3 days. And it was really cheap. Only $ 100 unlike every where else I went they wanted $ 300+. He even got done with my dress a day early. I would highly recommend this place to any one.

I’ve been going to Designer Tailor for a couple years now. I can honestly say that Ando by far does the best work that I have seen. Everything I need tailored goes to him.
The prices are very reasonable and Ando is professional and very skilled in everything he does. If you’re in need of a tailor, don’t hesitate to visit this place!

I’ve been in a lot more since my last review! Had a custom sash added to my wedding dress that was perfect! Have taken in more jeans too and always get them back looking like they weren’t even hemmed!

I am so thankful that I found Ando! I have an out of state interview next week and needed some minor alterations done ASAP! He was able to give me 100% attention and prep my pants for a very important interview! Highly recommend!

Ando did a great job altering my wedding gown which consisted of hemming 6 layers of fabric, tightening the straps, adding bra cups and taking in the hips. He got this large task done within a week of me bringing the dress in for $ 350. Awesome job! Great service! I’ll be back :)

I took my wedding dress to Ando for alterations.
I bought my wedding dress from a bridal website.
When I got my weddong dress it was one size too large!!#!# I was freaking out. I took it into Ando’s shop and he put me at ease. My dress turned fitting so nicely. He even added cup’s in the dress so I didn’t have to wear a corset!.Very professional & courteous.
Thank you Ando to you & your wife, for a beautiful job!

I needed some quick adjustments and advice before my Oscar weekend. What incredible service!

I just moved to Sacramento from San Francisco and I needed to find someone to take in a high end designer jacket for me in the area. It was either finding someone here or taking a trip down to SF to see my tailor down there.
After much search I found Ando online and absolutely had the best reviews on here. He knew exactly what I needed done and was very familiar with high end tailoring.
Reasonably priced and great costumer service. I’d recommend Ando to anyone that needs a qualified tailor in the Sacramento area!

Ando is Great. He’s so fast and does a great job. Also his store has nice items as well. If you need to get anything altered see
Ando specially when you need it fast. I know him ever since he’s been working at Nordstrom as Taylor.

I found Ando two years ago when I needed alterations to my bridesmaid dress. This was my first experience with a tailor and we sure lucked out! He ended up doing my dress, another bridesmaids and the brides! His fees are MORE than REASONABLE and way below competitors! The bride’s dress required taking out a bone, adding chest padding and hand stitching all the beading when he had to shorten the dress.
I am now in another wedding and knew just where to go! I made the bride come here and his prices were a 3^rd of what alfred angelo/david’s bridal would have charged and the quality of work is phenomenal! the man cut 4 inches off 5 layers and spent 2 hours hand stitching the final lace layer. It took him a week to get this and a few minor things done– the bride was shocked. Bridal shops request 6 weeks in advanced and he can do it in 1 week.
I recommend him to anyone, if you want it done right, come to him. No one can beat this man’s price, talent or love for making your clothing fit!

I had bought 2 suits from Zara in San Francisco which I loved the fabric and style. However, it did need some alterations to make it perfect. I am not used to the modern Euro slim cut pants but I think with some time I will get used to it. Anyhow, Ando, the owner did a fantastic job on the alterations of tightening up the waistline on both pants and shortening the sleeves on one suit jacket was both professional and on time. His fees are also very reasonable for the quality work that he does.
I will be taking in some older suits that I have which I love the material and have him modernize the cut/​style to fit today’s fashion.
I would recommend him to anyone interested in great quality work for a reasonable price.

Where is the 6^th star button? This place is amazing! The owner Ando is so good at what he does. Seriously this guy kicks major butt. He is courteous, quick and has serious experience (he was a tailor at Nordstrom for 14 years prior to having his own shop).
I stopped in today to have him alter an article of clothing for me and I thought I was pushing my luck when I told him I needed it by tomorrow. He called me back TODAY! I arrived and took one look at what he worked on and I was so happy that I almost hugged him.
Too big? Too short? Too long? Want it custom made? Give him a call. I don’t mind sharing him, just know I saw him first! hehehe
The place is very pretty, very clean and very up to date.
