Fashion Tailor Shop

Had 2 Maxi skirts I needed hemmed asap for a trip I was leaving on the following evening. The owner was so nice and assured me the skirts would both be ready the following morning by 10am. He had me put the skirts on to mark the length and I was out of there. Although it was the same skirt in 2 different patterns he insisted on measuring both — thankfully I listened because one sat slightly different on me and required an inch less to be removed. I swung by the next morning and my items were ready to go (with a nice pressing complete!). I ran home, shoved them in my suitcase and was off to start my vacation! As long as I am living here I will continue to be a customer.
Only thing to note — they accept cash only! But the owner was great on ensuring I was aware of this when I dropped off the items.
Thank you the quick and accurate turnaround!

I’ve taken two ball gowns into this Tailor shop and both have needed significant alterations. The first was purchased online from China and was a full size too small. Everyone knows that letting a dress out (making it bigger) is difficult if not impossible, but he did it! He even corrected the hundreds of beads that lined the sides of the dress.
The second gown was too large and too long. In less than a week (come on people, take it in with time to spare, last minute alterations are NEVER a good idea), he altered the fit and the length. The second gown also had significant beading and it perfectly was done. I’m getting ready to bring my third gown back to this shop because of the great service and great work they’ve done for me, this one only needs to be made shorter and there isn’t any bead work. I anticipate no issues.

Best tailor shop from coast to coast. He will take good care of you and your clothing, and he will do a great job. COME HERE FIRST. You will not be disappointed. He has been doing this for years. I got seven pants done in one day. Don’t waste your time anywhere else.

Been going to the shop for over12 year, but after today never again. Service, to me is so important in any business.
Requested to have long sleeves be made short sleeve and that from the left over fabric a front pocket be added. Picked up the shirts and noticed the pockets did not line up with the pattern of the shirts. I called this problem to the owner and was told please don’t complain three times. He fixed the problems, but not after he got angry with me. Angry with me for his poor work… Don’t need this for sure. In the end he fixed the problems. But not after my blood pressure went off the chart.

I think I’m going to cry. I dropped off a dress here yesterday and asked him to take the length shorter and the dress in a bit, but I needed it done within a day because my engagement photos were the next day. When he told me he could do it, I was so happy to have found them — should have known it was too good to be true.
I put on the dress, and he measured me and pinned it to where I wanted it — but I realized it was too short — so he moved the pin down more. After he lowered it, It was the perfect length — about 2 inches above the knee. And took the dress in a bit. He said it would be done at 4:00 the next day.
Well, I came today at 4:30 and he said he needed another hour, and to come back at 5:30. Sure, that’s fine. So I came back at 5:35. He’s gone, and the only person there is an elderly lady who doesn’t speak English. Ok, it looked pretty short and the dress looked like it was half the size that I originally brought in, but, I paid the lady and picked up my dress. Went home and figured it can’t be that bad…
Tried on my dress, and it literally looks like a hooker dress — it’s about two full hands above my knee!!! WHAT THE F*CK?! What was the point of even measuring me when it clearly didn’t mean anything! This is at least 8 inches shorter than it should be!!! It literally feels like he went cutting happy! …or he f’d up and tried to cover it by going shorter .and shorter… and shorter
So, after spending $ on the dress + a ridiculous $ 60 for alterations, I ended up spending so much money AND now, I have no dress for my engagement photos. Thanks Fashion Tailor Shop!

I took my pants, shorts, and four pairs of socks to FTS and three days later he had them done at a fair price, too. The socks were all hemmed from tube socks to ankle socks and they look great! The shorts and pants had snap fasteners added to the pockets and they’re also well done! If you’re in a hurry I suggest coming here, he does a great job in a very short amount of time. Prices for the snaps were 10 bucks per pair and each sock was 5 bucks, 10 per pair. 60 total.
On top of the main stuff, he is a very polite, courteous guy, very friendly and professional.
The only thing I would have to say is that he could be a *tad* more punctual on his opening times. I showed up at 10 am and he wasn’t there until 10:15. So keep that in mind if you’re on a tight hourly schedule – come later.
All in all, great experience. 4.5÷5.

Read the great reviews on Unilocal and decided to try this place out to get a few suits re-​sized. Kamal is fantastic! Great personality, does a great job at a fair price. I will be back for all my tailoring needs.

Found Fashion Tailor shop by a Unilocal search and wow what a great find!
I was greeted by who I assume was the owner and thinking my jean button was not repairable he took my jeans and said «oh this is no problem and how fast do you need them back»? I didn’t ask for a estimate nor did he offer one. I just had a great feeling that I was being taken care of and it would be worth whatever he ended up charging because I went into the store thinking nothing could be done. My jeans were fixed better than how I purchased them and in a few days time. At only $ 5.00 for the repair, I left him a nice tip cause I was expecting it to be more! I will also comment that on drop off and on pick-​up the small store had people waiting to talk to the tailor. Great little gem in Vista! Will for sure be a return customer!

Seriously love this place!
I have had them tailor my husbands dress pants, my ball gowns and even my wedding dress! They have always gone above and beyond for me and I appreciate how timely they are! I have recommended them to friends and family and they have had as great of service as i have.

Very nice people. I haven’t had much work done before, so it seems a little pricey but I’m sure I’ll adjust. They did a great job on the two pair of pants and dress that I took there. Turnaround seems to be a week.

I’ve been going here for years. The owner is very nice and does a good job! He even entertained my baby while I was in the dressing room.

I brought in a blazer and a pair of slacks to be tailored and they did a fantastic job! My blazer fits perfectly! Sleeves are the proper length finally– I look like a real professional now, instead of a teenager playing dress-​up in her mom’s jacket haha. Blazer and slacks were completed in a timely manner, the prices were reasonable and the customer service was great. What more could you want!

I’m very new to the area and can not travel much. So based on the reviews I came here with my old wedding gown. I wanted it more form fitted and less poofy for a ball I’m attending next month. The shop is small but neat. And it was never busy when I was there.
They put me in it, I explained what I wanted and he went right to pinning it. He gave me his opinion (but wasn’t pushy about it). It was done within a week (I gave them plenty of time to do it). I went in and something didn’t fit right and his wife went right in to fix it. And they didn’t charge me extra for the size mistake.
Over all great experience. I’d go there again. And the prices were good.

I have gotten a few things altered here and have had a good experience each time! The guy that works there is always super nice and the prices are reasonable! I would definitely recommend getting alterations done here!

The best tailor around period and the best customer service. Ive been coming here for about 6 months and would drive an hour to come here. Very happy with the service. Thank you!

Excellent customer service and very friendly. I had a last minute DIY alteration need for an event on a Saturday. I called and was told to bring it in and they could complete the same day. When I came in I was greeted immediately with a smile. That’s very important to me. I showed him my need and he explained what he would do and would have within a couple of hours. When I returned not only was the alteration nicely done but also pressed. Thank you very much! I will be a returning customer

I went in to have the clothing hanger ribbons that are put on strapless dresses and such resewed on as I had cut them off. It’s delicate fabric so I didn’t trust myself to do it. I needed to return it and it was expensive so I wanted to make sure everything was intact.
I go in and ask if he does that sort of thing, he tells me he can begin on it right then. He then comes back out 20 minutes later with it all fixed beautifully. I pull out my wallet to pay him, and he tells me he won’t charge me for it! Couldn’t believe the generosity.
Really great! I’ll definitely be going back with the other clothes items I have that need altering.

This guy will fix up anything. He fixed and strengthened my dogs go bag as well as my sleeping bag and motorcycle vest. Saves me the cost of having to purchase new ones because he does such a good job of fixing them.

I brought a pair of pants and a tank top (under garment) for alteration. It was a simple job just hemming both items. Since the tank top was made of a spandex mixed material, I did not want to mess it up. The guy did a good job. The price was a bit higher than another place for hemming ($ 20 total), but it was still reasonable compared to what I used to pay in SD a few years ago.

It is almost impossible, to find clothes in my size… especially pants. So, I have to take almost everything to a tailor. I had tried several other places that disappointed me prior to visiting Fashion Tailor, but I haven’t gone another place since my first visit here. I have been a patron here for about 10 years now, and I am always satisfied with how my clothes are returned to me.
I hope I never have to look for another tailor, it is a scary thing to trust someone with your favorite new item. I recently moved out of the area and still, make the drive up when I have alterations.
Service: The owner is very friendly and professional. If you are going on Saturday this place generally gets a little busy, so you might have to wait your turn for a fitting. There are two fitting rooms, so two people can usually be helped at once.
Location & Décor: It is located in a strip mall on the corner of Longhorn and Melrose. This inside is clean and plain, painted white with not much decoration, but your not here for the atmosphere anyway.
