How long does it take?
The time needed to complete an order is dependent on the task at hand and can vary from time to time. We do prefer to be given sufficient time to finish your garment to a high standard. However, we do still offer same day/next day alterations service for those who are always Last-Minute People!
If you’re looking for an alteration service then you should be looking at the minimum of three days but if you’re looking for a 'Made to Measure' garment then you could be looking at weeks.
Bespoke Tailoring
We have a 'Made to Measure' tailoring service that includes quality bespoke suits for men and women. This can be with fabric that you provide yourself or fabric ordered through us. Similarly we offer a service of which we can copy the pattern of your favourite garment and make as many copies of the garment as you wish, in whatever colour or fabric you would like! However, if there’s a garment you desire of which is only available in your head as a drafted idea, please get in touch,we will help translating it into reality. Free consultation appointment for everyone one is welcome, fashion students, young and professional designers as well as businesses all are welcome.
Prom Dresses - Wedding Dresses - Bridesmaids Dresses - Evening Dresses Alterations Services
With Wedding Dresses, Bridesmaid Dresses, and Prom dresses coming in almost daily, you could say we've attacked every problem a bridesmaid or prom go-er could possibly come across. With a huge increase in women buying online now as opposed to buying in person, it has drawn many dissatisfied women to our shop. While buying online is a more convenient and cheaper way of buying garments, it is not a safe buy. Many women will come in with their dresses far too big or small, too short or long, poorly made, doesn't fit, match the style or needs a new fastening. We have really seen it all. We are extremely understanding and creative at problem solving. We will not let you leave disappointed. Please ask us for our Express Service if you want to ease the stress of the last minute risk.
