The Sculpted Fit: Expert Blouse Modifications.  

Exquisitely designed blouse can be the most significant feature of your wardrobe, yet it can only shine in case it fits you perfectly. Blouses are also difficult to fit perfectly, due to its small folds, good seams and light material, which make them pretty. This is addressed by our blouse alteration service. We do modifications to maintain the appearance of the designer and tailor the blouse according to your body. You’ll feel as good as you look.

 

You begin with a personal, in-depth consultation, when it comes to your blouse. You will have the blouse, and our tailor will take the trouble to watch the way the stuff fits and feels upon you. We dislike the issues that irritate the fit and fashion: revealing button holes, awkward armholes that reveal undergarments, sleeves that restrict movement, or a body that is tight at the bust or loosish at the waist. We hear about your unique comfort issues and fashion choices and develop a personalised modification programme.

 

Our expertise spans the full gamut of adjustments to the most frequently occurring—and difficult—fit issues:  

 

Contouring the Body  

We gathered side seams and reversed darts, shaping the blouse in such a way that extra fabric is eliminated however the garment is comfortable.  

 

Armhole & Sleeve Refinement  

We create and tailor armholes to look more presentable and comfortable and trim or slim sleeves as much as they can be.  

 

Neckline and Placket Repair.  

We sew holes that open keyhole, V-neck or button-top buttons so the shirt appears neat and clean.  

 

Hemline Adjustments  

We trim or trim a crooked hem in order to fit your height and how you wear the blouse.  

 

The real art of our service is our prudent work. Blouses are frequently fashioned out of sensitive silks, fine cottons and difficult jerseys. These fabrics are not pulled or frayed and our tailors use special techniques and needles to work with them. We also layer thread and leave the original finish, and all modifications blend in. The overall outcome is a flowing blouse, very comfortable and behaving like it was a natural fit. You are sure that all the details have been worked on, and such a simple top turns into a significant element of your style.

Here are some of the most common questions we receive about clothing alterations:

FAQ

Average time: Most custom dresses require 1-2 weeks; the time of a bridal gown can vary based on the level of difficulty and alterations. We will provide a definite schedule during your consultation.

Yes - we are bridal dress specialists, and those kinds of elaborate alterations, such as installing bustles and structural modifications.

Absolutely. We will be able to use your cloth or assist in finding the high-quality ones with reliable suppliers.

The prices will be different depending on complexity and materials. After a first session of consultation and measurement, we present itemised quotes.

Tailoring is an entirely custom practise. An exclusive paper is hand-written, depending on your actual measurements and posture, and can be personalised in any manner with respect to style, cloth, and fit. Made-to-measure is a tailoring of a standard base pattern to your measurements, which does not give as much flexibility in silhouette as ready-to-wear, but provides a more customised fit.

In case of a new custom clothing, we tend to plan 2-4 fittings to make a gradual improvement of the fitting. With normal changes, a single fitting may be enough to hold the changes, then a last attempt of trying on to be certain of the changes being perfect.

It is easy to take clothes in, but it is only possible to take a garment out when there is enough excess cloth in the seams. In your consultation, we will consider the seam allowances and give you a fair judgment.

Absolutely. Our master tailors and seamstresses spend all their life working with a great variety of materials, both delicate silk chiffon and lace, and heavyweight leather and fur. We employ special methods and equipment that are used to produce the perfect outcome without destroying the fabric.

Depending on the complexity and time taken in performing a particular job, prices are set. A basic hemming service begins at a cheaper rate and more sophisticated restructurings such as acquiring a suit jacket are more complex. Our prices are clear and straightforward, and we do not give any surprises since we do not want to be caught unawares.

Please bring the shoes and under garment you will be wearing with the garment. This is essential in coming out with the right hem level, posture, and general silhouette. In case of suit fittings, take a shirt that you are going to wear.

We provide express services upon request in case of urgent changes. We will never lie on what is possible to do within a tight timeframe and will discuss possible ramification to the cost. Please call us as soon as you can get a slot.

Yes and we offer a complete list of repair services, such as zip-per repair, seam repair, patchwork repair and coat or jacket re-lining that returns the functionality and wearability to the pieces you hold dear.

Yes, we can. Most of our clients include inspiring photos or sketches of their own. These serve as a starting point to a consultation where we talk about how the design can be modified to suit your figure and be made reality with the help of the right fabrics and construction.

Any custom commission or large alteration order will need 50% deposit to start work on the project. The balance balance is payable on finishing fitting and collection. In case of smaller modification work, it is paid at once on completion.

We offer both options. Our selection of high-quality fabric swatches varies widely and we have a range of fabric swatches of famous mills. Alternatively, we welcome you to find your own fabric, and we are glad to advise on its appropriateness to your intended garment.

Every garment is given individual aftercare guidelines when collected. We usually suggest professional dry clean only in cases of need and steamer instead of ironing the clothes to preserve their integrity and shape, especially tailored suits and delicate objects.

We know that schedules are altered. We just require a minimum of 24 hours notice in order to rearrange or cancel a fitting appointment. This will enable us to give the slot to a different client. Bespoke project deposits are not refundable after pattern drafting or cutting of fabric has started.
