  • Clothing based on Japanese anime, manga, or video games.

  • Japanese gothic lolita-style clothing.

  • J Rock fashion and clothing.

  • Authentic, traditional Japanese clothing.  This includes hakama, kimono, yukata, and happi coat.

  • Non-Japanese, Western-style clothing.  This includes any original costume or non-cosplay outfit you may have in mind.

  • We do wigs.  Well, we don't personally make them ourselves but we're business partners and friends with a professional wig shop in Hollywood, California and we can get it done for you.

  • Armor and weapons.  This includes prop swords, helmets, jewelry, etc. we don't make!  Well sort of.  If it's something simple like arm guards, legs guards, round pieces, etc. we can probably make it.  Anything major such as full body armor, probably not but we'd have to see what you have in mind first.  Ask us for details!

  • Most gloves and footwear.  This includes shoes, boots, and gloves that go over each individual finger.  We can however, get authentic Japanese tabi socks, zori sandals, waraji, and the like.  Ask us for details!

  • Pre-made cosplay costumes.  All the cosplay costumes and wigs shown in our gallery are 100% custom made by us or by our wig shop.  We may sell vintage kimono but we do not and have never sold pre-made cosplay costumes.  These costumes are usually mass-produced in China and then resold by other vendors or by the mass-producers themselves.

  • Our return policy is simple:  we don't accept returns or offer refunds!  Every costume and wig that's made for you is unique and tailored to fit just a specific individual.  All sales are final.

  • We don't mind if you use any of our costumes to compete in any events you may attend!

  • Be sure to find out what your event's policies are regarding commissions and competition in masquerades though.

  • You bought the costume and/or clothing, it's yours, you can do what you want with it.

  • We'd appreciate any acknowledgement for any event you may win, should you choose to do so.

  • Any personal information that you share with us will remain strictly confidential.  We will never give out that information to anyone and we will never solicit you for anything.  Except if we find your cosplay picture somewhere and ask for your permission for its use on our site that is : ).

  • We have a physical store located in Los Angeles, California, in the Little Tokyo area.  We're located inside the Little Tokyo Shopping Center, at the intersection of Alameda and 3rd Street.

  • You can visit us, but we prefer it to be by appointment only (we might be out to lunch or busy with another appointment).  By visiting us, you can place your order in person, have an existing outfit altered, get your measurements by Naomi herself, or pick up an order in person and save on shipping charges.

  • We don't take any wig orders here, we only do those online.

    Naomi Alteration Service

    Los Angeles, CA 90013
    (213) 680 -1284

    12:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M.     (closed Wednesdays)

  • Seamstress with 23 years of sewing and alteration experience.

  • Owns clothing and alteration store in Los Angeles, California for the past 19 years.

  • Specializes in Japanese clothing such as kimono, happi coat, and yukata.

  • Native of Japan, resides in Los Angeles, California.

  • This site is maintained not by Naomi herself, but by her staff.  She does all the sewing and clothing design, we do everything else.  Any email we receive the contents are explained to her, we show her pictures of commission requests, and handle payments.  We speak, read, and write in fluent English, it's just that Naomi doesn't (she speaks it but is not fluent), and is why we do things this way.

  • Yup, we're cosplayers ourselves.  We also watch anime, read manga, and play videogames and therefore are familiar with many characters and games that we all know and love from the mentioned media.

  • Naomi's first online store after 19 years of running her Little Tokyo business.  She always wanted her own online business, but didn't know how.  We decided to help her out though :).
