The Most Trusted Tailor North Lakes Has To Offer

Tailors restyle, remodel, modify, and improve your dresses and suits to fit your shape and match your preferences. Our expert tailors in the North Lakes will take your measurements, discuss your specifications and requests, and make necessary adjustments to achieve your desired fit.

We transform store-bought suits into tailor-fitted outfits that emphasise your best features and make you feel comfortable and move easily in your own skin. Choose from our range of alteration services with a bespoke appeal and quality from pre-loved clothes.

After taking your measurements during the initial fitting, we’ll meticulously make necessary adjustments and shape within a quick turnaround time. Why throw away used dresses and give up on suits of the wrong fit? Our tailors can restore them to their best quality and tailor-fit to your size.

When you visit us at our shop in North Lakes for an initial fitting or suit alteration, we recommend bringing the footwear you plan on wearing with the outfit.

While we can also take accurate measurements on baggy clothes and everyday casuals, our master tailors recommend wearing a dress shirt or the appropriate shapewear that goes with your suit, dress, or garments above the waist.

Wearing garments that match the outfit helps us measure the perfect lengths and fit. Once alterations are made, you also get a good look at the outfit.

The time it takes to alter, restyle, and dry clean a suit or garment depends on the complexity of the adjustments and a few other relevant factors. However, most alterations, including dry cleaning, are completed within a fast turnaround time.

Our quick turnaround ensures that we’ve covered your style, whether you’re running last-minute outfit preps for a date, a night out at the Boardwalk, or a work gathering. Visit us at Shop/1015 N Lakes Dr, North Lakes, or contact us at (07) 3048 3477, to learn more about our turnaround times.

We’ll first evaluate the suit’s overall condition and discuss your special requests before we can provide a quote. Our alteration costs depend on the following factors:

Type of Alteration
Altering a wedding dress or multi-piece suit should take longer and more work than tailor-fitting and modifying casual garments such as pants, jackets, and casual outfits. Moreover, taking in and shortening the clothes is easier than lengthening or letting them out.

Number of Alteration Jobs
An alteration that only requires hemming or shortening will cost less and has a faster turnaround than a job that requires multiple refits and adjustments to achieve your desired fit.

Condition and Age
A suit’s age and condition also affect the cost of repair. Simply put, heavily worn-out clothes that are ripped, torn, and have holes will require mending.

Fabric Type
The pattern and fabric material used in your suit will also depend on how easy or difficult it is to alter it to your size. Premium and delicate fabrics such as silk and lace are fragile and will require careful alteration from our expert tailors compared to other materials.

Extra Details
Unique details, popping highlights, and embroidery enhance the overall look of your suit or dress. Visit our North Lakes shop today and let us know if you want extra details sewn into your outfit.

Seamstresses sew clothes, dresses, and garments for a living. On the other hand, a tailor restyles, fits, remodels, and alters a suit or outfit to a customer’s body shape and preferences in style or comfort.
