Designer Tailor

I have used them over the months to alter 3 items. The first item was promised 5 days later. It was very important I received it on that date and never thought «they just wouldn’t be done». But it wasn’t. So, things happen and I gave them the benefit of the doubt and used them again. Exactly the same thing… saying I could pick it up on the 6^th day but from some other store nearby that would be open. Obviously something they do a lot. I did it… and my pants were done wrong! So again, could not wear the item promised. When I went back to have them corrected, I brought another item (how stupid of me!)… again thinking things happen and no one is perfect. I have had it… 5 days later, went to pick up the 2 times and of course they were not done… There was no more than 2 inches of sewing! So, I picked up my items and went to another alterations place. Guess what… I have my items and they were done beautifully! Don’t use them… or be weary of mistakes and not being done on time.

Truan is the best. I have most of my clothes altered and have been using her services for 20 years. Always fine work.

DO NOT GO TO THIS WOMAN IF YOU VALUE YOUR CLOTHES!
Not only is she never done on time. But she has ruined every item I have brought her!!!
90% of everything I buy has to be altered because I’m curvy… Simple alterations like putting a dart an a dress or taking a top in a little on the sides she can’t do it she has ruined countless brand-​new expensive Nordstrom dresses because she twisted the seam on the dress! Making them unwearable!!! And she even made me pay for the alterations of the 3 brand new dresses all with the tags still on them, even though I would never be able to wear them.
Final straw was today I went to put on a dress I had taken it on the sides and the side to hem by the bottom of the dress is coming apart she wasn’t even supposed to be down there.
What’s even worse is she’s always so busy she can’t allow you to try on your clothing when he pick it up to confirm that everything is OK see if you take it home and hope that she did it correctly.
Needless to say I will not be coming back here!!!
I am not one to leave reviews but I couldn’t let this one go sorry good luck Unilocalers!

I’ve brought many items here for alterations, turn around time is good.
Alterations are done well.
And YOU CANNOT BEAT THE PRICE.
Really nice friendly folks.
Seems she can work any fabric.

I love Sumi’s but she’s closed for a while and used Designer Tailor instead. Very simple job of hemming a pair of unlined slacks. When I went to pick them up at 3pm on Thursday, they couldn’t find them, barking at me ‘wrong name, other name’ (uh, I think I know my name!) and worse, they were not ready as promised at 2pm. No call, nothing. Two people in the shop, neither sewing, it wasn’t like they were swamped. Treated very rudely, ‘come back in an hour’. Well, I was leaving for vacation and that wasn’t as easy as it sounded to them. NO APOLOGY, paid full price. Mind you, this was after a week of waiting. Terrible, would never go back, not because they screwed up, because they are rude and ungrateful of business. And parking is a nightmare in that little lot. Sumi. She’s wonderful.

I have a pencil dress that had to taken in in the waist. It took just a few minutes for Thuan, the shop owner, to mark where the extra fabric had to be taken in. The work was done with impeccable quality. I was very impressed with Thuan’s sewing skills.

Love this spot– super convenient, across from Safeway. Easy parking, same day tailoring. Excellent job on the tailoring services. FYI cash only (no big deal, most tailors are– just good to know before you go!) love this spot!!!

I’ve been going here for years. Alterations, repairs and even some custom work. They are friendly, do excellent work and are fairly priced. Give them a try.

I have taken many pieces of clothing there, everything from bridesmaids dresses to jackets. Everything they have worked on comes out fitting perfectly and done to perfection. She shortened a bridesmaids dress that was made of shear fabric with an uneven hem and it looked amazing. Could not tell it was ever altered. Price is right as well. Highly recommend them for anything you have that needs altering.

My husband and I just went there last Monday, got fitted and dropped off 7 things to fix, she had them all done by Friday and they were all perfect fits. the price was excellent too! We can always count on them.
