If you are looking to get a garment altered whether a wedding dress or a pair of trousers then we can help.
We offer a full alteration service and pricing is detailed below. There is nothing we have been unable to accomplish yet, and will do our best to achieve the desired look you require. Whether you need a consultation to discuss your requirements prior to any alterations or are looking to arrange some alterations then we charge £15 for an appointment to cover our time and valuable advice (30 mins), alternatively this can be a 30 min Virtual Appointment if you prefer. The alteration appointment fee is refundable against your alterations at the time, but not for an advice appointment as this is a payment for our time and invaluable advice. The appointment fee is non refundable if the appointment is cancelled less than 48 hours prior to the appointment or no further appointment is required. We can also steam your dress for the big day or even your bridesmaids should you just wish to get the creases out. A dry cleaning service is available for wedding dresses only. Gowns can also be stored in a white box in tissue paper for an extra charge if you prefer this option (boxes available in three sizes). Please note wedding dress cleaning takes a minimum of two weeks to complete. Please do not hesitate to contact us to book your appointment or should you have any other dressmaking or cleaning requirements that are not listed as we can discuss this with you and provide a solution. Steaming and dry cleaning pricing on request. Please note if you require a Saturday appointment for alterations then there is a 9am or 9.30am appointment only. |
