What to Expect from Everyday Alterations
Everyday alterations start with a garment inquiry and a workshop intake, so the work can be assessed properly before anything is agreed. We review the fabric, construction, condition, and requested fit to decide what can be adjusted and how the garment should be handled.
Common requests include trouser and skirt hemming, waist and side-seam adjustment, sleeve-length adjustment, zipper replacement, and seam or lining repair. For each item, the scope is explained clearly and the price is confirmed after inspection, not before.
Clear assessments, careful adjustments, and a final fit check.

Our standard fit-alteration package includes one fitting appointment, with a typical turnaround of four to eight business days depending on the garment and the work required. If any additional work becomes necessary, we ask for approval before proceeding.
At collection, the garment is checked again so the fit can be reviewed and any final adjustment handled carefully. We also review customer-supplied materials where needed, and we can discuss care and pressing notes for the finished piece.
