I've had several garments altered and/or repaired here. The work is beautifully done. Their selection of evening wear is unique, and exquisite. They also offer wedding jewelry, shawls, and accessories I haven't seen anywhere else.

I had my wedding dress tailored here and I was very happy with the service! The dress originally was too long and a little bit loose, after tailoring, it fit me perfectly.
I’ve also gotten several other pieces of clothing tailored here (mainly pants which were too long). The pricing is very reasonable and the turnaround time is pretty quick.

As a visiting dressmaker from North Carolina, I stopped in to ask a favor. The owner was kind and extended a fellow artist a courtesy in a moment of need. I am grateful for her help. I must say the shop is beautiful, he designs and work are beautiful! Suzanne

Amazing! She made an overlay skirt for me in less than 2 weeks. She also hemmed my dress! Will definitely be back!

BRIDES! Stop looking elsewhere for a bridal tailor because Marina is IT. Firstly, as a type-A overworried kind of bride, I'm weary about where to get my dress(es) tailored, and did a ton of research. I read through every single reddit thread that mentions any bay area bridal tailors, and Le Caprice/Marina kept coming up. Then I found out my friend got her Berta dress tailored here and the dress fits her like a glove!! That's when I know, fantastic, I need to take all my dresses to Marina from now on. I first brought two rehearsal/welcome dinner dresses to Marina and she did a fantastic job. One of the two dresses is a mini dress from Katherine Tash I'm obsessed with, but the fit was never quite right. This dress has gone through the hands of two other tailors until Marina finally fixed it for me, once and for all, and I'm SO beyond happy! For example, there was a piece of the lining that was showing on my skirt, and Marina brought out scissors and started cutting the fabric while I was still wearing the dress! You could tell she's incredibly confident because she's competent. For this other longer silk satin dress, she's meticulous, and pointed out details that normal ppl would not have noticed but these details matter: "those hooks on the back are showing! they aren't supposed to show!" I got both of these dresses back only a little after a month and she did an epic job on both. I am coming back for my actual wedding gown alterations in a few months, and will for sure write a happy update with photos after the wedding!! Thank you Marina! I can't wait! :)

What a lovely job Marina did on my wedding dress!!! I was recommended by THREE brides to go to Le Caprice and I'm so relieved I did. For starters, my dress was originally purchased as 3-4 sizes too large and she magically made it fit like a glove!! She also did a hem and added a bustle and with quick turn around. I was worried about the detailed lace at the neckline and waist of my dress, but she did a great job making sure to preserve all of the lace. I had also lost weight during the process and she made sure to go back and take it in more to make me happy. Marina is a no-nonsense owner who gets it done and done correctly. Her experience and talent is unmatched. When it comes to an important piece like your wedding dress, you want to go to an expert and that is exactly what Marina is. Thank you Marina and team for making me feel beautiful!!

I brought my wedding dress here to be altered. Everyone who worked there was lovely and very quick with getting it ready. It took about a month for me to get my dress altered here (I wasn't in a hurry). I also ended up getting my necklace here as well. It was so beautiful. The prices for alterations were reasonable, and the work was amazing. Highly recommend!

Marina helped me on the fitting and hemming of my wedding dress. I highly recommend her service for a few reasons:- Professional and very good at what she is doing. She listed the areas that need to be fixed and figured out the solution with one glance. Other tailors told me it will be a very long turnaround and an expensive job.- Quick turnaround, it meets my tight schedule.- Very fair price- It fits well on the first try, and saves the travel time.- It looks like the original even if I need some alterations in the embroidery material

I recently brought in my wedding dress for alterations. The price was reasonable for shortening the dress, taking in the bodice, and adding a bustle (I had checked with two other places beforehand). The dress looked great and fit well, and the overall process was easy and painless! Definitely would recommend going to Le Caprice!

I took a bridesmaid’s dress to embellish it with appliqué. Marina did a great job, and it transformed the dress. Her work is meticulous.

Le Caprice is amazing. They are always fantastic and are willing to make all the adjustments I’ve asked for. She did my wedding dress and another formal dress. She is honest and kind and knows what she’s doing. Definitely recommend this place for all your alteration needs.

Getting alterations at Le Caprice was a straight forward process. Marina is really no-nonsense (which can sometimes feel brusque) but overall the dress fit well and the bustle was easy to use. I am deducting a star because they lost my dress bag that had extra buttons in it. They also put the dress and veil in a plastic bag that was very difficult to transport.

Marina is amazing! She worked magic on my vintage dress from the 1970s and I started bringing all my other tailoring projects to her. Don't miss out on such a good wedding dress tailor!
