Services


From everyday repairs to special occasion outfits, we’re here to help.

Whether it’s a pair of trousers that’s a bit too long, a favourite jacket with a worn-out zip, or a wedding dress that needs to fit just right, we’ll give it the time and care it deserves.

Below you’ll find the things we’re asked to do most often, but it’s not the full picture. Every day brings something a bit different, and we enjoy that. So have a look through, and if you can’t see what you need, just ask. Chances are we can help!

A note on prices:

Our prices are friendly, and we agree them with you on each item before we start. We do it this way because no two jobs are the same. Shortening a mini dress is quick, while a multi-layered evening gown takes a lot more time and care. On paper they’re both “a dress”, but they’re very different jobs. So instead of a fixed price list that could lead to confusion or disappointment, we keep our prices flexible to suit every need. You’ll always know the cost before we begin.
