Fittings
We will work on your garment for as long as it is required to achieve the perfect fit. It is important that you understand that sometimes, for bridal and complex alterations, in particular, more than one fitting will be required to achieve the perfect result as the margin for an unwanted crease is sometimes just a millimeter. We believe in consistency that is why the same tailor or seamstress you see at your consultation will attend to you during all your fittings as well as work on your garment. All fittings are complimentary.
What if I Need Urgent Alterations?
If you need us to make alterations to your garment on the same day, please inform us of your requirements when you contact us. We will do our best to assist you and accommodate your request.
