Celestes Tailoring

Great prices, excellent work, friendly owner. Consistent client for years. Highly recommend. Marc

What an excellent experience! Pleasant, Prompt & Professional. I brought in my suit to be altered for a big event (I was hosting the ceremony). The suit needed a lot of work (I lost almost 20 lbs). The suit came back on the day promised and looked incredible. I was extremely proud to stand up in front of a huge audience and felt confident because of how well my suit fit. I will be back with all my alteration needs plus recommend anyone to do business with Celeste!

As one of her original customers, since she opened shop I can say her service is constant.
From tailoring my high school graduation suit to my executive Suit; I have not needed to go anywhere else.
She is very skilled and punctual, I recommend her to all my friends and family.
She is the Best in Town!

Had my pants altered. Quick and easy very nice lady. Thank you will definitely go back

I came in to get some pants hemmed by Celeste. She was very professional and sweet. She got the job done in a timely manner.

I don’t mean to make this into a personal attack, the woman who owns the shop (I’m assuming Celeste) does decent work for the price. On top of that, she’s always kind and friendly. But good Lord, the woman is completely disorganized. She obviously has an issue with time management because over the years, she is always LATE with her work. She NEVER EVER has your items ready at the time she promises they will be.
She always says she’ll have it ready the next week but when you arrive, a panicked look crosses her face when she realizes that she never worked on it. But because she is kind and nice, I try to overlook her tardiness and tell myself, «after this time, never again!» Of course, because she is so close and convenient, I give her another try. But after fighting through traffic on Venice Blvd. to get to the store, finding parking and then paying the meter only to be told «so sorry, next week please» time after time, the experience grates on your nerves and patience.
What I’m failing to understand is why when she clearly has a problem delivering on her schedule (for whatever reason), she insists on repeatedly accepting additional work she cannot complete on time. I just don’t get how she operates.
I imagine her to be the type of person, when she was a child, who was ALWAYS late with her homework. But after this time, I swear, never again!

She tailored one pair of pants for me and the quality of the work was good. However, the pants weren’t ready when I went to pick them up at the agreed time. I returned the following Saturday to drop off another pair of pants and the store was closed, although they had posted business hours for Saturdays. I tried calling the number in the front of the store and it went to voicemail. I found another place a few blocks away that was more reliable.

Very god tailor.

Poor quality, not-​straight hems, work is not done on time.
She is nice, but over her head in this small space.

Re-​reviewing to say that her work was abysmal — poor quality work. It broke the day after I picked up my duvet from her.
Poor customer service (doesn’t have a system and doesn’t keep promises) and uses poor quality materials.
I finally picked it up about a week and a half after she first said it’d be ready (after she kept forgetting to do the work, and neglecting to call me to tell me it wasn’t ready yet — read my first review to see just how bad it was), and the zipper we asked her to put in broke the day after I picked it up.
Unbelievable. Seriously, do not waste your time or money here. So unfortunate, because it would have been nice to have a good tailor in my area. But I’d rather drive elsewhere than come back here.

I’ve always been pleased with Celeste’s work. Working in public relations, a lot of times, more often than not, I’m all over the place, and usually find myself trying dresses on last minute. Today I have an awards show to attend, and didn’t try my dress on until last night. My neighbor said it was too big, and being that I’m working the red carpet, I had to contact Celeste– she always gets the job done, nicely and professionally, and her prices are beyond reasonable. I recommend all the gals in my office to see Celeste when they need alterations

Great job on last minute alterations! Free parking located in the back of the building.

Very nice neighborhood tailor, but the alterations are sub par.
I would not come here if you’re looking for top notch alterations; it’s fine if you’re just looking to fix a zipper, etc. It’s a local shop with good prices, decent service, but sometimes spotty execution.

I tried on the pants that were hemmed with the exact same shoes that I had been wearing to get them «fitted.» The hems go so low that I actually end up stepping on almost ½″ of material.
I’d have her fix them, except that she’s probably lose the item.
I think I’d only recommend her to people I really don’t like…

First I thought this place did good job, quick and cheap. She adjusted my jacket sleeve just fine for $ 15. When I took close look at it, I noticed that the buttons she replaced were not aligned at all. Pretty crappy job for simple work. I also took my jeans to hem and she lost it. She said it should be here somewhere, but couldn’t find it for a week. I asked her to call me when she finds it, but she never called. I called her a week later and she told me it’s ready to pick up. So, I went to pick up, and she showed me two jeans and asked me which one is mine… Ugh… Don’t bring anything expensive.

A super friendly place to go that won’t over charge you. I stumbled upon this little shop near my home and I absolutely love the hem job they did on two pairs of my high end dress pants. The owner just kind of eye-​balled the hem and I must say that both pairs are the perfect length! The best part was that I was able to pick them up the next day AND my bill only came to $ 14 for the whole thing. I will definitely be coming back to use their services again!

Definitely a great place to get your alterations if you need it fast and don’t want to pay an arm & leg. I used to go to Ki’s tailors in Santa Monica but the drive to the location takes forever so I went looking for an alterations shop near my house and thats when I stumbled upon Celeste’s. It’s a small shop owned by a nice hispanic woman located between venice and inglewood. The prices to hem jeans are $ 6 which is pretty much the same price for dresses, pants, slacks etc. It’s definitely a great price and you get your items back fast. Kudos to this mom & pop shop!
