Frank Young Tailors

Terrible! I came to get an alteration on a dress shirt and a sports coat. The lady that works there told me to fix the shoulders on the coat, she did it and it would scrunch up at the shoulders. I took it back, she tried to fix it but then after I tried it on again, she tried to bs me saying it’s the style. Second, she made my dress shirt too short at the sleeves. Very bad at what they do, definitely not recommended.

Don’t waste your money. I came in with a pair of work pants and asked the lady to reduce it to size 32. I kept repeating it to make sure she would understand the measurement thing but she just kept saying «okay, okay». Obviously she did not listen to me because when I went to pick up the pants, to me it looked as if they were the same size as before. My friend tried it on and it was still huge on him. It was definitely not a size 32. By the way she made me pay 25 dollars for that in advance — which was more than the pants had cost. When I went to tell her that and complain not only did she not offer to give my money back, but also she told me that to fix it, she would have to charge me again! Another 25 dollars! So I had to take it somewhere else and ended up spending more money. Don’t go there. This lady obviously does not listen to what the client wants and only cares about your money.

I am a vintage dress fanatic and I take all my dresses here to be altered — usually shortened and/​or taken in at the waist or bust. She does great work, but yes, is a bit on the expensive side. However, with a 60-​year old dress, I’m willing to pay to have it done right the first time. She is also great with accents, like putting ribbon around the waist, things like that.

Jenny is very kind. She is hemming my brides dress. I was referred to her by one of her loyal customers. My wedding dress came out really nice. Thank you, Jenny!

I had a bridesmaid’s dress altered here and was not happy with it. When I went back in to pick it up, I tried it on to make sure it fit and noticed it was still too big. I pointed out where I needed it taken in more and she didn’t even pin it and paid very little attention. When I came in again to pick it up, she clearly had not made the additional alterations and told me that I just «didn’t need it.» What’s more, there was a stain on the front of it that wasn’t there before and she told me that since the dress had a lot of fabric, people might not notice it.

Expensive, but decent work. I had a dress altered and the tailor did exactly what I had asked. The alterations cost more than the dress though! Also, over a few months some of the stitching has pulled and started to create a hole under the armpit area…

i find it hard to believe that anyone would rate frank young tailors with less than 5 stars. my wife and i moved to LA 5 years ago and after finding FYT, we never go anywhere else. she’s tailored all of our suits, blazers, slacks and even bridesmaids dresses; we’ve spent a significant amount on these clothes and FYT has never failed to disappoint. The only downside, if there is one, is that the prices are a bit on the high side. …but hey, you get what you pay for.

I get my off-​the-​rack clothes altered there for a better fit. Good price. Good work. Definitely worth it.

I search all over the place for good tailors. Got this one off citysearch because it was close to my house. What a mistake. I brought 2 pairs of pants in: asked if they could shorten with the same stiching as it came with – the lady took one look and said yes, «of course, exact same». I come back 2 weeks later – totally different stiching. She then tells me: «no need to try on, it’s perfect». I go home – guess what – 1 leg is a full ½ inch shorter than the other. When I brought it back, she didnt even seem to care. I will NEVER go back. Stay away, it’s not even cheap – no better than dry cleaner alterations.

I went there for the first time to get my suit tailored. The tailor seemed very friendly, but you don’t get stars for just «friendliness.» She seemed to know what she was doing and even offered to have my other suit pants hemmed for free because one leg needed repair. When I went to pick-​up the suit, I was surprised to see that the buttons on the sleeves of the suit had been moved (which I knew), but the stitching around them had been completely removed. When I asked why, she just told me she had to do that way (not very good reason). To top it off, the pants that she was going to repair for free were now going to cost me additional $ 20 because she did both legs. I told her she had said the other pants were going to be free, but she did not remember saying that. BOTTOM LINE, THEY GOT MY MONEY ONCE, BUT I WOULD NOT GO BACK THERE, OVERPRICED AND SEEMS TO CUT CORNERS. I’ve had suits tailored for less and with much better results.

The woman here was so friendly and kind, which I appreciated because this was my first visit to a tailor and it was for work. I had to get two large pieces of fabric hemmed and pressed. The total was just under $ 100 and I have no idea if that is a competitive price, but this place is close to home and I felt well taken care of. I will be back with some ill fitting clothes soon to what kind of magic she can do.
