All items are designed and made specifically for each customer. The process begins with a photo, sketch, idea, existing pattern, favorite item of clothing or any combination of the above. We then draw a sketch of the design. After the purchase of material and a number of fittings, the item is ready to wear.

Our designs include;

  • Wedding  & bridesmaids dresses
  • Debs dresses & other evening wear
  • Suits; skirts, jackets, trousers, dresses etc
  • Coats
Alteration Service

The key to the perfect alteration is to have an understanding of the original garment design. This knowledge comes from a formal qualification in pattern making and over 20 years experience altering clothes.

Typical requests include;

  • Taking in; possible through side seams, waistband, zip, shoulders and sleeves
  • Letting out; similar to above but requires seam allowance
  • Shortening & letting down hems
  • Altering the neckline of blouses and dresses (lower or higher)
  • Completely downsizing an item due to weight loss (trousers, skirts, jackets, blouses, dresses etc)

*This list is a guide only. We welcome all types of alterations.
