Frequently Asked Questions
What does a tailor do?
Our expert tailors in Mt Gravatt will modify, restyle, rework, repair, and alter your suits, skirts, dresses, and other garments according to your unique body shape, preferences, and specifications.
Visit us at Westfield Garden City, and we’ll take your exact measurements, arrange fittings, and give you style advice on which adjustments should bring out the best fit.
We will tailor-fit your dress or suit to achieve your desired fit and complement your measurements and body shape. You don’t need to throw away pre-loved garments or brand-new suits that don’t match your fit. Entrust them to us, and we’ll breathe new life into them so you can wear your tailor-fitted garments elegantly and confidently.
What do you wear to get tailored?
Feel free to wear comfy everyday clothes when you visit us for fitting and alterations. We are located at Level 2, Westfield Garden City, near Big W, so you can simply visit us after shopping from your favourite fashion retailer.
If you have the time and room before your visit, you can bring the footwear and dress shirt that you plan to wear with your outfit. This helps us measure the perfect lengths and gives you an idea of how you should look once alterations are finished.
Wedding dresses and garments above the waist are best fitted with proper bra and shapewear. We recommend wearing them during your fitting to get an idea of the fit for your big day.
How long does an alteration or tailoring take?
Simple alterations such as hemming and shortening have faster turnaround times and can be done within 24 hours, excluding dry cleaning. Larger tasks, such as bulk alterations and complete restyling may take longer. That includes altering several suits and fitting out bridal parties and wedding entourages with bespoke tailoring.
Get the best quality and a stress-free experience with our quadruple guarantee. At LookSmart, we are your tailoring partners for last-minute wardrobe preparations and fitting adjustments, whether you’re preparing for Mt Gravatt’s renowned cultural festivals like the Pacific Island Cultural Festival and the Mt Gravatt Show, refining your race day attire to cheer for your bets in the Melbourne Cup, or just to have your off-the-rack piece from David Jones, H&M, or Myer altered to your size.
How much will the alteration cost?
We will first assess the condition of your garment as well as your requests before providing a fixed and transparent quote. The following factors affect the cost of altering and repairing the clothes:
Type of Alterations
Simple jobs such as hemming and shortening will cost less and take less time to finish than complete restyles, resizing, letting out, and lengthening.
Number of Alteration Jobs
Jobs that require more alterations will cost more and take more time to achieve a seamless result and the desired fit. Those include taking in a dress and shortening its sleeves or letting out a suit and lengthening it at the same time.
Condition and Age
Newly bought pieces in pristine condition are easier to work with than heavily worn-out and old pieces. Besides, repairing old fabric from tears, rips, and holes may require more careful attention than patching new garments with easy-to-source materials.
Fabric Type
The type of fabric matters. Versatile materials such as linen, cotton, wool, and denim are easier to work with since we have accumulated hundreds of hours working with them. On the other hand, Delicate fabrics will need a more intricate and careful touch, like working with chiffon, cashmere, and silk.
Extra Details
Adding stylish details such as embroidery, beadings, and tulle fabric can definitely improve the style and look of your piece. You can request our team to add extra details that you want for an extra cost.
Can a tailor make my suit slimmer?
Definitely! You don’t need to throw away valuable pieces and high-quality garments just because they don’t fit you at all. After all, your clothes should fit your body, and not the other way around.
With the help of our Mt Gravatt team, you can walk home with a suit or dress that showcases the perfect look and perfect fit. We have worked with bulk alterations for wedding entourages, business suits for your next big career break, and dinner outfits to leave a lasting impression on your date.
LookSmart Alterations doesn’t stop with altering or hemming your suits. Our clients have unique preferences and, therefore, different fitting needs. If your suit is too tight, loose, short, or bland to stand out, we’ll fix it.
Our in-house stylists provide style advice on achieving your desired fit and giving a lasting impression and well-executed style wherever you go.
What type of alterations do you specialise in?
At LookSmart Mt Gravatt, we provide professional alterations for the following:
We also provide dry cleaning services. For an extra fee, you can request our staff to dry clean your garments after alteration so you’re ready to wear them as soon as you pick them up from our Westfield store.
Will my alteration be noticeable?
All alterations and repairs will leave minimal seams and near-zero imperfections that you won’t notice it was repaired or altered at all! We pay attention to detail to create a seamless masterpiece that boosts your confidence and makes you look your best!
By choosing LookSmart for your alteration, your pre-loved and off-the-rack clothes get that extra TLC that will make you feel confident in your own skin. There are no seams, no loose threads, no imperfections, just exquisite craftsmanship—that’s the LookSmart difference!
Here, we’ll take individual threads from the fabric’s unseen interior and meticulously reweave them to the damaged areas.
Is dry cleaning included in the alteration service?
You can have your garments dry-cleaned after alterations for an extra cost.
At LookSmart, we are experts in handling delicate fabrics such as velvet, satin, silk, cashmere, suede, and wool, preventing any risk of shrinkage and stretching. Entrust your valuable garments to us and pick them up fresh as new.
