What does a clothing alteration include?

Your seamstress or tailor is skilled in working with textiles, but especially clothing, to create, repair, and alter clothes. Here are some of the most popular alteration services and what you can expect when you book them:

Clothing alteration service - sewing

Need some custom sewing work to create a design from scratch or custom-fit to your size? Hire a seamstress or dressmaker to create or customise your dress or garment with great attention to detail. They’ll start by measuring your shape and size with a soft tape measure to ensure the perfect fit. They’ll consult with you on designs and fabrics, like selecting between chinos or khakis, before choosing or customising a pattern and cutting out the pieces. 

Then, these clothes or dress alterations near you will sew your garment or dress, taking care to finish off any edges with an overlocking stitch. Most dressmakers will request you to come in for a final fitting where you can try on the (mostly finished) garment and they can make final adjustments.

Clothing alteration service - formal wear alterations

When you want to look your best, it’s so important that your clothing is tailored to perfectly fit. Whether you need bridal alterations, school graduation alterations, bridal alterations, formal pants repair near you, corporate wear alterations, or suit alterations near you, a professional tailor can help. They’ll take your exact measurements and then ask you to try on the outfit or dress, ideally with the shoes you plan to wear. Then they’ll note or mark up any parts that need taking in or loosening, and where the hem needs to sit based on your shoe height. They’ll use a mixture of machine and hand-sewing techniques to alter your clothing and finalise everything with a final fitting before your event.

Clothing alteration service - clothing adjustments

Most clothes you buy off the rack won’t fit perfectly, or you might need your favourite clothes adjusted for your body shape over time. Book clothing alterations near you to help with dress shortening, garment shortening, and even school uniform alterations for those kids who won’t stop growing. 

Clothing adjustments and shirt alterations usually involve taking seams in or out and adjusting the hem. Most hems have a few centimetres of extra fabric, so you can add extra length, or take it up for the perfect fit.

Clothing alteration service - clothing repairs

When your favourite dress or your slim or skinny jeans break, you don’t have to throw them away. Get professional clothes repair services near you to take a look and see if they can save your clothes with techniques like zipper repair, seam repair, new lining, hole patching, button sewing, and more. 

Extend the life of your clothes - it’s better for the environment and much more budget-friendly, too.

$150

Baulkham Hills NSW 2153, Australia

3rd Mar 2025

Hi, I am trying to teach my disabled adult child where his "calm zones" are to go to when he is upset. I need you to make 3 cloth machine washable and tumble dry proof logos out of cloth that can be sewn or preferably ironed on to three couch covers ( the symbol is in the attached photos below) Three need to be about A3 size paper in the landscape view ( 30 x 42cm )with folded under and blanket stitched edges or what ever you think will prevent fraying in the wash and I also need 3 cloth machine washable and tumble dry proof logos out of cloth that can have 2 pieces of wide (about 2cm) elastic sewn to them to enable them to go over the back of the bucket seat of a car so my son can see it when he sits in the seat behind the bucket seat. This should have machine washable black elastic and the size should be about an A4 sheet of paper in the portrait view ( 21 x 30cm.) It would be great to have them as soon as you can manage. They need to be the correct colours as shown in the photograph. I am in Baulkham Hills but can't drive at present
