Clothing Alterations

Giving your clothes the designer look

No two people have the same shape, it’s a fact! There’s no need to accept how the clothing manufacturers think we should be shaped. A wide range of alterations can be performed to make your garments fit perfectly.

Jackets, dresses, skirts, trousers, shirts, or anything else. You’ll be surprised at what can be achieved.

The perfect fit

Very often, what you’re looking for in the shops isn’t the right size, or if it is, it just doesn’t quite fit as it should. It’s also expensive to have all your clothes made just for you. Don’t worry, we have the answer: a range of services to get that perfect fit. The most common alterations are shortenings, closely followed by alterations to waists, hips and sleeves. Every alteration is discreet and professionally finished.

Need a re-vamp of your wardrobe?

Have you lost weight or put a little on? Wanting to update your look but on a tight budget? Give me a call and we can help, taking in or letting out, shortening a garment, adjusting that revealing neckline to protect your modesty! Shorten the full-length dress hanging in your wardrobe so you can make better use of it. Take up your jeans so they can be worn with boots or flat shoes. Update your look by altering a hemline or skirt design. Alterations to girls’ party dresses so they can be worn more than once, and next year too!

Hand or machine finished

All garments are either hand or machine stitched depending on the fabric and the finishing required. Please give me a call if you have any questions. I hope to give you all the advice you’ll need.
