Reweaving Studio

This place is amazing! I was blown away by the quality, talent and service of Soon Choi! She does beautiful work — and is a beautiful person. I highly recommend her services.
For my wedding, I decided to borrow a friend’s dress, which was four inches too short and more than two inches too big. My budget was tight, but like every bride, I wanted to look for a million bucks.
I first took the dress to one of those fancy places near down town Palo Alto and was treated pretty badly. The tailor actually ended up detaching some of the lace from the satin, and sent me home with a dress that was in worse shape then when I entered the store. She then informed me to essentially trash my friend’s dress and buy a cheap one instead [just a note that my friend’s dress cost in the $ 5000 — $ 7000 range and made with beautiful fabrics].
A very good friend who visits Soon often recommended her, and I’m so lucky she did!
In extreme contrast to the other tailor, Soon Choi welcomed me to Reweaving Studio with open arms and was more than happy to take on the challenge of helping me out. Altering a wedding dress — in a short time frame with a lot of issues — is no small task, and she could have easily turned me away due to my budget.
For an extremely reasonable price, she completely transformed the dress in a beautiful gown that fits perfectly. I came in for multiple alterations and she wouldn’t let me leave the store until it was perfect. She actually went out of her way to call me to remind me to come in so that there was enough time for a perfect fit. She also went out and bought matching lace to help repair the dress, and I am so excited and proud to wear it on my wedding day. Not only did she help me with my dress, but she listened to my wedding planning problems and gave me some incredible advice.
Thank you so much Soon!!! You helped to make my wedding day one of the most memorable days of my life.

I brought three sweaters here in early Jan to have some holes fixed. I was told the repairs would take three weeks. I returned after three weeks and the shop was closed, even though it was during posted business hours. Went back two weeks later and was told my sweaters were still not ready. Another month went by and I never got a call about my sweaters, so I finally went back and nothing had been done to them. I made a total of four trips to Reweaving Studio and waited over two months, and in the end took my sweaters home with the holes still in them.

I took in a tailored suit that had a small hole (1/​8″) in the jacket sleeve that I wanted fixed. It was not very noticeable, but enough to cause me concern. I had read a lot about reweaving and had my expectations quite high, and maybe unreasonable. But while I did expect a small repair not any larger than the hole I started with, I did not expect the results I got. Unfortunately, I now have a ¾″ square patch that looks like a puffed up portion of my jacket that stands out like a sore thumb. So much for this jacket, but I guess I can still use my slacks…
I cannot in clear conscience recommend Reweaving Studio to anyone with a nice garment that they want to use in a social situation…

I had some moth holes in a very beloved cardigan. It’s one of those sentimental pieces that I just can’t let go. Ever. I’d prolly like to be buried with it LOL. The lovely lady here worked wonders on it and fixed the holes– her work is refined and skilled, I had to really look to see that the holes were there previously. Prices are reasonable and turnaround time is fast. Bring your sentimental pieces to her!!!

The knit baby blanket that my dtr loves accidentally got damaged and had a hole in it. They did a wonderful job – the mended area is only visible if you look carefully and most importantly, it will prevent further damage from happening.
The seamstress there seems to really know what she is doing and I plan on bring alterations (esp more complicated ones) here in the future!

I had a major moth infestation and had a lot of damaged sweaters. Took them here for a ‘french weave’. They did a great job, and the price was less than what I used to pay in LA.
