Before providing a quote, our skilled tailor will examine your item to ensure the best customisation and alteration prices, which are influenced by the following factors:

Type of Alteration

Adjusting or lengthening a dress or suit is much easier and quicker than creating custom wedding dresses or altering their style.

The total cost will vary based on the specific changes needed, like lengthening, shortening, taking in, or letting out.

Number of Alteration Jobs

You can save more money by having your business suits hemmed, patched, or taken in, rather than getting them lengthened and restyled. 

Our seamstress team in Newcastle will have a friendly chat with you to understand your perfect fit and figure out the alterations required to achieve it.

Condition and Age

Repairing new and worn-out garments requires different levels of skill, but for a flawless finish, it can be a challenge to find matching materials and patterns for patching up older suits and dresses.

Fabric Type

Fancy materials like silk, lace, velvet, suede, wool, and cashmere can be pricier and require extra care than more versatile and budget-friendly materials.

Extra Details

By adding tulle fabric, embroidery, beadwork detail, and custom laces, your outfit will be embellished with lovely highlights and accents. While these extra details may add complexity to the task, our skilled couturiers can handle them.

Both can make clothes and can sometimes do hemming and mending.
