Everything I have brought here has been handled amazingly. Invitation either I was especially impressed with how he mended the frayed pockets in my wool coat: I bought a piece of soft black leather and he used that to add leather trim to my pockets, completely hiding the frayed bits. Now the coat looks more stylish then it did before! Unfortunately the hours and distance from the metro mean I don’t make it out there often. I have also shown up during business hours to see the store closed without any warning, so I feel the need to call and check that it is open next time I make the trip up.

Great service, fantastic results! I took an off-the-rack Jos. A. Bank signature tuxedo to James. It was a classic cut, but I’ve got a slim-fit build. James was able to make this tux look great on me, and for less than I would have expected to pay. I’m glad to have found such a stellar tailor in DC — he clearly knows what he’s doing.

I had to get a few shirts altered because there was just fabric billowing everywhere(seriously. I am not a slim guy but apparently everything is vanity sized these days). Brought them in, James did a quick but thorough measurement and that was it. Picked them up a week later and was amazed at the workmanship and the improvement in fit. Another important point — I brought in a blazer I’d bought off the rack. I felt it fit me pretty well, but I wanted him to take a look at it. I put it on, he applied his expertise, and let me know that it fit well as it was and didn’t need further alteration. I really appreciated his honesty with that. He also keeps a wide collection of swaths for custom clothing. I’m not in the market for it, but the completed products on display in the store look absolutely gorgeous.

Definitely a great place to go to get tailored. He works quickly and does great work. So far I’ve only done pants here but he listens to what you want. Extremely friendly and easy to talk to.

James is a true professional and does exceptional work. I’ve taken suits, trousers, coats and shirts to him, and all have come back exactly how I wanted them. He listens carefully and takes his time with measurements and pinning, but also gives useful suggestions. Highly recommended.

Best luxury service and tailoring in Washington. Extraordinary craftsmanship in all the garments he has done for my collection. I am a realtor in the luxury market and it is critical to keep my brand looking the very best, he is a great member of my team. I can count on excellent response time and a tremendous value in his services. He understands quality, style, design and value and advises me the correct direction in all my wardrobe. We are so fortunate to have this caliber of tailor in our neighborhood.

Best tailor in DC — excellent tailoring, great service, a pleasure to work with. I’ve worked with tailors in Chicago and Boston and was thrilled to find De Louice when I moved to DC. From buttons to tailored suits, De Louice has delivered consistent, high quality results.
