The Best Tailor in Doncaster
The best dresses and suits perfectly fit your shape, highlighting your best angles while concealing trouble areas. With a lot of flourishing fashion hotspots, you have an infinite range of options to choose from.
Scour the oasis of big fashion brands at Stockland Townsville Shopping Centre and Centro Townsville on Ross River Rd and Nathan for brands like Ally, Best & Less, Myer, Factorie, Connor, and more. Local boutiques also line the suburb, including House of Zia and Red Cross Shop, from curated fashion selections to high-quality thrift options.
But it’s often difficult to find the perfectly fitting piece off the rack and in major shopping centres and boutiques. Either store-bought pieces are too short, too tight, or loose on the leg—all common yet easily fixable issues!
That’s where expert tailors from LookSmart come in. Our Aitkenvale team can transform any off-the-rack garments into cosy and tailor-fitting pieces that make you look and feel good wearing.
Professional Dry Cleaner
When you’ve invested in high-quality clothing, proper care is essential to maintaining its longevity and pristine condition. The best way to keep your jeans or top looking vibrant, soft, and perfectly fitted is through the expertise of professional dry cleaning services.
At LookSmart in Doncaster, we specialise in the delicate art of dry cleaning. Our technical expertise ensures the proper handling of fragile fabrics such as silk, cashmere, suede, lace, velvet, satin, chiffon, and wool. Entrusting these delicate materials to a household washing machine risks irreversible damage from shrinkage or stretching.
Instead, allow our tailored dry cleaning services to meticulously clean and care for your investment pieces. This includes specialised treatment for formal wear like wedding dresses, suits, and evening gowns, ensuring they stay looking their absolute finest. So, when you make the home jump left for your dry cleaning needs, LookSmart is here to provide the highest level of care for your wardrobe.

What customers say about LookSmart Doncaster
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a tailor do?
Tailors are expert garment alteration specialists who use their extensive knowledge of fabrics, construction techniques and fit to modify clothing for a personalised, flattering appearance. They can shorten or lengthen hemlines, take in or let out seams, adjust sleeves, and perform a variety of other alterations to ensure a garment fits the client’s body perfectly
How long does an alteration or tailoring take?
The time it takes to alter a garment or suit depends on the complexity of the alterations and our current workload. Simple suit alterations and bespoke tailoring are typically completed within 24 hours, with our expert tailors providing fast turnaround for most services.
Whether you need last-minute alterations for a special event or a dinner celebration, or you’re looking to have an entire bridal party outfitted, LookSmart Alterations offers swift and expert tailoring services to help you look your best.
How much will the alteration cost?
We assess your suit or clothing and consider your requests before determining the cost of the alteration. Here’s how we do it:
Type of Alteration
Altering everyday clothing is simpler than altering a wedding dress. Shortening or taking in a suit is easier than lengthening or letting it out.
Number of Alterations
The more jobs needed, the higher the cost. A suit needing only one alteration (like hemming) costs less than one needing multiple adjustments (like fitting, taking in, and shortening).
Condition and Age
The condition and age of the suit affect the cost. New suits are easier to alter, while older, worn-out suits might need more repairs. Matching fabrics for lengthening or letting out old suits can be challenging and costly.
Fabric Type
The type of fabric influences the cost. Delicate materials like silk and lace are harder to work with and may incur extra costs.
Extra Details
Adding details like beading, tulle, and embroidery enhances the look but adds to the cost. The complexity of these additions will also impact the price.
What is the difference between a seamstress and a tailor?
Tailors and seamstresses both work with fabric and garments, but their areas of expertise differ. Tailors specialise in altering existing clothing to achieve a custom fit, while seamstresses typically focus on sewing new garments from scratch or performing highly detailed sewing tasks such as embroidery or intricate pattern work.
Can a tailor make my suit slimmer?
Yes, a skilled tailor can definitely take in the seams of your suit jacket and trousers to achieve a slimmer, more streamlined fit. This is one of the most common alterations tailors perform. By carefully removing fabric from the sides, back, and shoulders, they can carefully refine the silhouette to better complement your body shape. The key is maintaining the original design and proportions of the garment while slimming the overall appearance.
What type of alterations do you specialise in?
A seamstress sews clothes and fabrics, while a tailor focuses on altering outfits to fit a customer. Our Doncaster tailors also offer dressmaking services, creating tailor-fitted clothes, though most of our work involves hemming and mending.
We specialise in bespoke suits, dresses, and ball gowns, as these often require custom alterations to achieve the perfect fit for your body shape.
Will my alteration be noticeable?
Loose threads and seams can ruin your style and confidence, especially in front of an audience. Our seamstress and master tailors not only alter your suits but also perfect every detail to boost your confidence.
We restyle and repair all types of garments without leaving a trace. With our services, your pre-loved and off-the-rack clothes will fit perfectly, making you look and feel great.
For valuable dresses or suits needing flawless repairs, we offer invisible mending at many locations. Our technique involves reweaving individual threads from the garment’s interior to seamlessly fix tears, rips, or holes.
Is dry cleaning included in the alteration service?
Once we’re done with the alteration, we can dry-clean your garment as an additional service.
We can offer dry cleaning for delicate fabrics like suede, silk, velvet, satin, premium wool, and cashmere. Trust us with your perfectly fitted suit, and pick it up within days in fresh and pristine condition.
Do you offer any guarantee on your alterations?
At LookSmart Alterations, we’re proud of our stellar reputation for high-quality work and exceptional service. We offer a quadruple guarantee on all your garments and alterations to ensure your satisfaction:
- Re-alteration Guarantee: If you’re not satisfied with the alteration, we’ll redo it for free. If we can’t finish it on the spot, we’ll deliver it to you at no extra cost. All hems are guaranteed for the life of the garment.
- 100% Money Back Guarantee: If you’re still unsatisfied after the re-alteration, we’ll refund 100% of the cost.
- Competitor Guarantee: SNot happy? We’ll cover the cost of altering your garment elsewhere, as long as it doesn’t exceed our prices.
- Damaged Garment Guarantee: If your clothes get damaged or lost while in our care, we’ll reimburse you the fair value.
Remember, claims against these guarantees must be made within 4 weeks from the date of receipt.
