Vouched by the leading fashion retailers, our team in Westfield Chermside Shopping Centre focuses on resizing, repairing, restyling, and dry cleaning all types of garments, so you can rest assured knowing you have the most capable hands around.
When you visit LookSmart, rest assured that you are in the care of the most capable hands. Whether you need simple alterations, a custom creation, tailoring bridal parties for your wedding day, or dry cleaning your delicate garments, we can help.
We can accommodate all styles and alterations. Whether you want to resize your trousers, take in a suit, lengthen a skirt, or restyle your favourite dress, we cater to all of your fashion needs and provide the fit you desire.
No garment issue will prevail with LookSmart Chermside’s meticulous repair services for rips, tears, broken zips, holes, fraying, and seams. Just leave the items to us, and we’ll fix them.
Delicate fabric dry cleaning? No problem. Our dry cleaners carefully handle silk, cashmere, suede, laces, velvet, satin, chiffon, and premium wool. We’re fully aware of the damage household washing machines can do to these fabrics, and shrinking or stretching is the least of your worries with household detergent. Let us clean it for you instead.
Looking sharp, elegant, and beautiful while feeling great on your memorable day is non-negotiable, and we want you to experience that feeling. LookSmart Alterations is your go-to fashion and stylist team for suit and wedding dress alterations in Chermside.
As the most trusted tailor Chermside has to offer, we lengthen, shorten, or let out wedding dresses and suits in all the right corners to provide you with a perfect fit and confidence. We’ve provided bulk alterations for bridal parties, including bridesmaids, flower girls, groomsmen, and the bride and groom’s outfits.
If you’re not happy with your choices, we don’t stop at alterations. Our team of expert seamstresses can design and create custom-made wedding dresses from scratch, catering to your specific requirements and body shape to turn your dream wedding dress into a reality.
LookSmart is the world’s largest tailoring & dry cleaning company in Australia & New Zealand. We also offer clothing alterations & dry cleaning services in Sydney, Canberra, Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane, Hobart, Adelaide, & other areas across Australia.
Some of our other services include:
Most of our customers are on the go and sometimes only have time to visit during public holidays, so wearing your work clothes or everyday casuals is okay when getting measured for tailor-fitting. But whenever you can, we advise wearing appropriate shapewear or dress shirts you plan to wear with the suit or dress so our stylists can measure the perfect length and size.
Bringing shoes or footwear that goes with the outfit is a good idea for anything below the waist. That way, we can take the perfect length and give you an idea of how you should look or walk once the alterations are finished.
All our alteration and dry cleaning services have a fast turnaround time. Be it dresses, suits, or garment alterations, we’ve got you covered.
More complex jobs, such as fitting an entire bridal party or entourage, will take a bit longer than casual repairs. Visit us at Westfield Chermside Shopping Centre or contact us at (07) 3359 6627 and check out our full range of alteration services.
We’ll first assess your garment before providing a fixed price. The following factors impact the alteration and tailoring costs:
Type of Alteration
Quick jobs like shortening or hemming a dress/suit are easier than restyling or creating custom wedding dresses. The type of alteration involved (lengthening, shortening, taking in, letting out, etc.) will also affect the overall cost.
Number of Alteration Jobs
Business suits that only need quick hemming, patchwork, or taking in will cost less than lengthening and restyling. Our team at Westfield Chermside will discuss your desired fit and determine how many jobs are required to achieve it.
Condition and Age
Working with brand-new and worn-out clothes, while not night-and-day, will involve varying workmanship. Damaged suits and garments will need invisible mending to achieve a seamless result, and finding matching fabrics and patterns for patchwork may be hard to source for older suits/dresses.
Fabric Type
Sourcing premium fabrics such as silk, lace, velvet, suede, wool, and cashmere adds to the cost and may require more delicate handling than versatile and cheaper fabrics.
Extra Details
Adding custom laces, tulle fabric, beadings, and embroidery creates accents and highlights for your outfit. These accessories and details all add to the job’s complexity, but nothing our expert tailors can’t handle.
Seamstresses are experts in sewing clothes and wedding dresses from scratch. Conversely, tailors precisely adjust, fit, and restyle suits and garments to match your exact specifications. We hem garments and adjust clothes, mending damaged areas in our Chermside shop at Westfield. You can also choose us for high quality dry cleaning services.
Yes, and in no time! We turn off-the-rack suits and pre-loved coats into tailor-fitted masterpieces. Visit us at Westfield Chermside, and our expert tailors will take your measurements and make the necessary adjustments to achieve your desired fit.
Leave your business suits and trousers in our shops, and have our stylists tailor them to your specifications. Whether you want to look defined and charming as you walk the aisle or present your proposals, we have the answer to your style needs.
Every client has a different fit and style they want for their garments, as some are bought too tight, loose, or plain to stand out in a crowded event.
LookSmart offers fast expert alteration services in Chermside for the following:
You also get a dry cleaning service for all your alterations and hems (additional cost), leaving you with high quality and style-ready garments when you pick them up.
Maintaining a high level of workmanship means paying attention to the smallest detail. Our master tailors leave no trace of seams and alterations in our services. Loose threads and improper seams can result in a low quality finish and an improper fit that could ruin your confidence and affect motion when performing or presenting yourself in front of an audience.
Our invisible mending service is useful and highly proven when dealing with damages, tears, holes, and rips in suits/dresses. Here, we carefully take individual threads from your garment’s interior and meticulously reweave them onto the damaged areas for a perfect finish.
You can request to have the garment dry-cleaned after altering them so they’re style-ready as soon as you claim them back.
