Formal Alterations

Our tailors are experts when it comes to all formal dress alterations and gown adjustments. Whether it’s for a wedding, engagement party, school formal, or any other special event, it’s our job to ensure your dress fits you perfectly. We provide expert advice on fit, length, measurements, and more. Also if you have an old dress you’d like to wear again, we can help restyle and remodel it to suit your current style.

If you’ve bought a dress online that doesn’t quite fit or isn’t exactly what you wanted, we can alter and restyle it to your satisfaction.

We specialise in shortening formal wear including all types of dresses and gowns, across various fabrics and designs. Please note, it’s important to bring your shoes or heels with you to achieve the perfect length, unless you plan on wearing flats.

Our other services include: letting out, taking in, fixing zippers, buttons, and studs, repairs, adding sleeves, or any other material adjustments.

If you are looking for an expert alteration service in Canberra or Belconnen, contact us today with any questions or queries.
