Murat’s

I have had all my suit tailored at Murat’s for years now. Murat really knows how to make me look like a million bucks.

Best tailor in LA hands down! Factory quality alterations. Even the original manufacturers wouldn’t be able to tell the difference! Top quality-​5 stars

Being very petite I pretty much have to have everything tailored. Many of the pieces I get are pricey, made of nice fabrics and often complicated to alter. Murat’s to my rescue. I know my items are in good hands here and the tailoring is truly impeccable. Their attention to detail spot on. I recommend brining in the garments in advance giving at least 2 – 3 weeks for them to work on them. I also like to bring a photo of the garment if I have one to give a good reference point for how it should look. If you need a rush job this is not the place. But it’s certainly worth the wait and the pricing (which is on the expensive side)

I happened upon Murat’s by accident about 5 years ago and would trust no one else with my clothing. There is a camaraderie between Murat and his associates which makes your most dysfunctional family seem quite normal.. .but.. this is part of the charm of the establishment. No one is hustling anyone and the banter is better than any «scripted» reality show. The shirt maker, Ted, is the best in the business. What I like most is to be able ask opinions about clothing and have the tailor tell me what should be done to make the article look better.. .no more and no less. If nothing needs to be altered, Murat will tell you!
If you want a rushed job, this is NOT the place for you.. .I would suggest your dry cleaners. If you are looking for a skilled and sensitive method of tailoring, look no further!

If you are looking for the cheapest place to get your pants hemmed, stop reading now and start looking elsewhere. If you want a tailoring place that does nice work and knows how to treat worthwhile clothing, then go to Murat’s. When I try something on for fitting, I value their opinion in terms of length, sleeves, etc. They keep their eye on fashion, much more than I do. They also do superb custom tailoring such as suits, pants, etc., with the caveat that it sometimes takes awhile before it’s ready.

I just got my wedding dress altered here on recommendation of the brand I bought it from. I don’t live in LA, so I was relying on travelling into beverly hills for appointments.
The first appointment was fine. The second was a complete nightmare — it was three weeks after my first appointment but the minute I walked into the store Ted informed me the first alterations on the dress wasn’t finished and I would have to wait another four hours for the appointment to take place. I hadn’t even received a phone call about it. There wouldn’t have been much time before the wedding to fly in twice more so I changed my flight that afternoon costing me hundreds of dollars. I came back and 2pm and had the length fitted (the body fit well). I then waited another four hours for the length to be taken up because I made it clear I wanted to take the dress home that day — no matter how much they had or hadn’t done on it because of the stress of the situation. When I came in at 6 to pick up the dress, Ted and Murat were busy serving other customers and in the end I took my dress and left without trying it on for a final time because I would have missed my rescheduled flight.
All in all, the tailoring seems to be done well and they were accomodating to a certain extent by making sure the work was finished that day, as I made it clear I wouldn’t be coming back again. If you are happy to come back several times, have a relaxed schedule and are happy to pay a significant amount, then this should be a great place to get your wedding dress tailored. If not, it could be a very frustrating experience.

I have been going to Murats in Beverly Hills for years. Their work is fabulous. The tailoring is perfect

I’ve been using Murat and Ted for 15 years. They are currently making my suit and shirt for my brother’s wedding. I get everything done there. They are 100% worth the price. I have recommended everyone I know and never had a disappointing experience. If it doesn’t look right — to you or to them — they will fix it until it does. These men know clothes, and they know customers. Five stars PLUS!

I LOVE this whole family! I cannot tell you how thrilled I am with my wedding dress! Murat and Ted are beyond talented and they recreated a dress for me that still has people talking. They took my size 12 sample designer dress and made it into a size 2! They are lovely people and I highly recommend working with them. Plus Ted’s sister is very personable and helpful. When you leave their boutique, you feel like a million bucks. Thank you guys! I am still smiling!

Net of it is, this rude Iranian tailor ruined over $ 10k worth of my clothing and billed me nearly $ 2,000 to do so.
When they try to sell you and explain to you why they charge $ 250 to alter a jacket they will claim to not cut corners and in essence, that they will have to rebuild your coat to alter it, and that takes time and costs money.
They don’t. They cut the same corners but bill five times as much.
When you get your suits back you will not only find they have cut all the same crude corners on your expensive clothing as the cheap alterations place in a strip mall and have left your clothing unwearable, but that they wont even fix the errors or admit to them. I honestly thought I had lucked out and found a tailor to depend on when they worked on my pants, but when I got my suit jackets back, not only is half of the work not even done, but the half that was altered had simply ruined thousands of dollars of my best and most expensive clothing.
Then when I asked to be refunded or preferably, for the work to be done as they agreed and as they sold, the soft spoken, nice guy who takes your measurements is replaced by some bald, creepy old Iranian weirdo in glasses and that god awful accent who then yells, swears, pretends to be insulted by your contention that you are not accepting ruined clothing at $ 250 per item — and then in what one can only described as a comical twist of blurred logic, yells that you should never return. As if thats some sort of punishment, as if ripping people off for thousands will inspire repeat business.
Absolutely out of his mind.
I would laugh my ass off if not for the fact that 4 of my Canali suits, 2 Pal Zileri jackets and 2 Armani coats are ruined and I am down over $ 2,000 to boot, with Murat insisting that while I should now leave, my $ 2,000 should remain with him but my now unwearable, ruined clothing remain with me. They refuse to fix their mess or refund my money. In any other description, not doing the work and keeping the fee — is plain theft. Not in his mind.
Maybe this is acceptable custom in Iran, but have no fear — I will never, ever be back.

I can’t remember if I was referred to Murat by a talent agent at a big agency or when I found out that the Gucci store on Rodeo uses him exclusively. Murat really is the best of the best. If I have any major alterations or on my nicer items in my wardrobe I bring them here without question. He is at the top of his game and really knows what he’s doing and gets the items finished in a timely manner. There have been times where I have brought in an evening gown or a nice pair of jeans and just told him it didn’t look right and he would have a solution – often little things I wouldn’t think of that made all the difference in my clothes looking perfect on me and making me look more put together.
He is on the pricier side for repairs but again if it’s an important /​nicer item or a major job I would not take it anywhere else

I’ve been going to Murat’s for several years. I was referred to them when I tore the lining in an expensive coat getting into a cab. After Murat’s repair, you could not tell that it ever happened. That’s why I stuck with them initially. Over the years they’ve been consistently good, but now I feel compelled to write a review.
I recently got married and I considered getting a made-​to-​measure tuxedo. However, I decided to go with an off-​the-​rack tux from a good designer. My gamble was that Murat could tailor it so well, that it would look like it was originally cut just for me. It paid off. My tux was tailored perfectly! Everyone at the wedding (and I mean everyone) complimented me on the tux.
Murat patiently worked with me through multiple fittings to get it just right. And it wasn’t just the tuxedo; they altered my shirt like a surgeon — opening up the sleeves to make one longer, altering the french cuff and moving buttons. I thought that I was going to get charged a pretty penny for this level of detail and effort, but Murat stuck to his original quote (with the exception of a couple of additional requests made by me).
If it’s at all important to you, and you want it done right, go to Murat’s.

Best place (Beverly Hills shop) to make your newly purchased clothes look like they were made just for you. Very warm service and reasonable prices. I drive over 15 miles for their quality and fashion sense.

Very Rude people who work here. They sit in the front in these easy chairs and when I walked in they go «What do you want?» in this really uncouth way. No smiles, and I marched my butt a few doors down to the other tailor.

The best alteration service so far in Los Angeles. I was recommended to this store by Confederacy (who uses Murat’s for alterations) to alter button up shirts: shortening sleeve length, body, and arm circumference.
All three shirts were returned to me altered perfectly: they paid very close attention to the inner cuff details and preserved them upon return, and the finishes were expertly completed.
Also, the staff at Murat’s are highly knowledgeable about fit and dress, and lend a good second opinion to the way your clothes look on you.
Yes, they are relatively more expensive than most alteration places, but the level in knowledge and expertise is well worth the value.

This place is fine if you have the time to wait for your garment to be perfected. I have no complaints with the workmanship, but the wait is a bit long. It usually takes two weeks to turn around, but I got a phone call to extend the time once (kudos for the call) and had a three week wait on my next visit. I also found it to be pricey. Nice people, but I switched to Lizon and I’ve been really happy I did.

I have to agree with Sarah K. I took my wedding dress to Murat’s from the recommendation of the bridal salon where I bought the dress. They could not give me a quote up front. I ended up having to go back for 3 fittings before they made a single change to the dress because they kept on forgetting to do the work. They promised they’d make it up to me. When I finally got to pick up the dress, it fit but they slapped me with a bill for $ 900, at least double what I would have paid somewhere else. This was not a complicated dress, no beading, no lace… all they had to do was take in the sides, take up the hem in the front and sew cups into the bust. Apparently they think it’s fair to charge $ 150/​hour.
I definitely would not recommend them for wedding gowns.

I honestly lucked out when I found this place upon moving to Beverly Hills from San Francisco. In SF I had two old men that would sometimes do an okay job, and more than often do some old-​man variant of what I really wanted done to my clothes.
Now that I’ve given a contrast, let me review Murat’s. I ALWAYS go in there in some big rush, and tell him I need it done in like 3 days, and he ALWAYS fits me in. Not only does he fit me in, but my clothes are always PERFECT. He has a sense of style and knows how things should fit properly. After Dior fitted my suit incorrectly, he altered it and fought with Dior to charge them again, so that he didn’t have to charge me anything.
Jean alterations are the best I’ve ever had, and it is the only place I’ll bring my shirts. Everyone there is courteous and professional, I give them 5 stars!

just when i thought the search was over by finding the perfect wedding dress, it all began again here when murat’s quoted me $ 2,500 (yes, two thousand five hundred dollars!) to ALTER my dress.
i understand that the location is in beverly hills and i have a high-​end designer gown. moreover, i have no doubt they do a quality job. nevertheless, i think it’s a crime to charge $ 2,500 for altering (bringing down couple sizes) a white dress!

If price is a big concern for you, please disregard this review. If QUALITY is most important to you, and you need some tailoring done, you have to go to Murat’s. He has several locations on the Westside, but he’s usually tending to the flagship store in Beverly Hills.
Fine craftsmanship, fine artisanship. Murat is there and does the work. There’s an accountability with the work and that makes the price worth it. Murat is a kind, friendly guy. Murat’s is the place for tailoring in LA!
