What customers say about LookSmart Woden, ACT

Really great experience at this particular LookSmart. I had a pair of pants tailored, taken up and taken in at the waist. The knowledge of staff is wonderful and very considered. The fit of the pants when I picked them up was perfect! Thank you for the service and professionalism. It’s very hard to find a good tailor these days so I am feel very happy to have found this place. Julia I - GOOGLE
Asked if I could have a jumpsuit taken up within the hour (because I was running late) much to my delight, they were able to accommodate and were so lovely about it ! Rate the team, service and quality really highly. Thank you again ! Sophie M - GOOGLE
My son’s trousers- pockets at the back frayed awfully. Ready for the rubbish bin but took them to these ladies and once again they look good. A fantastic repair job! Thanks once again ladies - saved our old favourites. 10/10 Alison B - GOOGLE
Ali was absolutely fantastic, I cannot give him enough credit for his work! I am from Sydney and had a wedding to go to the following day. I ordered a dress online and it sat too big and the size smaller was too small. Ali helped me immensely, his customer service was wonderful and so professional. My dress was fixed within an hour (if that). He saved me a world of stress, absolutely wonderful wonderful person, could not recommend him enough! Daniela M - GOOGLE

Hear Why 1 Million+ Customers Use LookSmart Every Year

My wedding dress was initially altered by a home-business who completely and utterly ruined the design, stitching, size of my dress and even machine oil on it. I took my dress into Looksmart in Modbury and they unpicked every panel on my satin, fishtail gown to re-stitch it all back together after making the necessary changes. Thanks to LookSmart I had my dream dress back. LOOKSMART Modbury (SA) – Caitlin B
Had an absolutely amazing experience. I came here to alter my dresses as a bridesmaid a year ago... and the last few months have been back to alter my own wedding dresses! They are well experienced, has great attention to detail and followed through with my job from beginning to end. I’ve been here 6 times now and the service is just impeccable. Highly recommend this place! LOOKSMART Chatswood (NSW) - Michelle W
Amazing service! One of the "best" places in Perth said what I wanted couldn't be done. I went to Mona under a recommendation and will definitely be a return customer. She spent a whole hour pinning my wedding dress and it was perfect. She even did a fitting and made the tiniest adjustments. So worth the money if you want something done properly! LOOKSMART Gateway (WA) - Lana D
Had my pants altered with original hem done in 30 mins! The work was professional and the staffs were friendly. I will be getting all my alterations done here from now on. LOOKSMART Chadstone (VIC) – Joseph C
Miracle workers. Had a dress that needed some serious work done due to sunlight damage. It required one of the panels to be removed and reversed. This dress is made from a variety of materials and required skill, attention to detail and extreme care, both of which Looksmart in Glenorchy provided. Thank you so much to the incredibly talented seamstress. I also had 4 items dry cleaned. 10/10 Highly recommended. LOOKSMART Northgate (TAS) – Elise T
Claremont team in WA are very good at what they do and so focused on customer care which is rare today. They rescued a garment of mine, Karen Millen skirt. Since then I have not only had several items altered by them, I've also had one shirt made from scratch. Their technical expertise is of a very high standard. I would rate them all A+. Thanks for being so amazing. LOOKSMART Claremont (WA) - Alexsandra G
Hi, just wanted feedback given about some sewing i had done at Charlestown NSW. The staff was a delight and sewed my top beautifully. I gave her a prepaid satchel and she was able to post it to me, as I couldn’t pick it up, as I lived an hour away. She did a lovely job and was very. LOOKSMART Charlestown (NSW) – Mandy T
I’ve been to both Erina Fair and Westfield Tuggerah shops, amazing work from both, but extremely happy with erina today. I dropped off my pants on Thursday and it was ready on the Sunday, they did a great job with how much I needed my pants to be altered and in such a short amount of time! LOOKSMART Erina (NSW) - Bianca
I just wanted to let you know the service I have been receiving at charlestown is amazing! Ashley has saved me before and has now come to the rescue with my wedding dress after someone else stuffed it! She has amazing service even though you can tell she is flat out! LOOKSMART Charlestown (NSW) – Brianee L
I bought a new business suit, which I had to wear to work the next day as I was starting a new job. Despite having only few hours at hand, they did an excellent job by altering my suit before end of business day. You guys have me as a customer for life now just because of the exceptional service extended by this employee of your company. LOOKSMART Modbury (SA) – Mukesh I

Frequently Asked Questions

Our Westfield Woden tailors will thoroughly alter suits, dresses, garments, and outfits to perfectly fit a customer’s body type and desired fit. That includes processes such as letting out, taking in, hemming, lengthening, and shortening, or a combination of any.

Visit us at Shop L09, Level 1 near David Jones, Westfield Woden, ACT and we’ll take your measurements and provide style and fashion advice to achieve your desired fit.

As a tailoring shop catering to people on the go, we’re totally fine if you visit for an alteration wearing your casual clothes or work attire. Our stylist tailors will still take accurate measurements and make perfect hems no problem.

If possible, we advise wearing the dress shirt, shapewear and footwear you plan to wear with the suit or dress to be altered. That would help us measure the perfect lengths and give you an idea of how the outfit should look once alterations are complete.

Our turnaround times will depend on the number of alteration jobs you need, the quantity of garments you drop off, and the capacity of our Westfield Woden shop. Busy wedding seasons and year-end rush leads to higher demand and slower turnaround times.

At LookSmart, our years of experience and expansive reach with over 120+ stores across AU and NZ helped us develop efficient processes to ensure fast turnaround times for dress and garment alterations. Note that more complex restyle jobs like fitting entire bridal parties with bespoke dresses/suits will take longer than most basic alterations.

Visit us at Shop L09, Westfield Woden, ACT or contact us at (02) 6170 3404 for enquiries about our full range of alteration services.

The cost will depend on the garment type, the alterations required, and your special requests, if any. You’ll get a free and transparent quote with full disclosure on the processes we’ll perform to turn your off-the-rack suit into a custom-fitting piece.

Besides, the cost will also vary depending on the jobs required, such as:

Type of Alteration Needed
Basic alterations like dress shortening and hemming are easier than restyling and taking out suits and multilayered dresses.

Number of Alteration Jobs
Our expert tailors and stylists in Westfield Woden and the rest of ACT will check your garments and let you know the number of alteration jobs required before we arrive at a final and fixed price. Suits that only need one job (hemming/taking in) often costs less than lengthening, letting out, and restyling simultaneously.

Condition and Age
Taking in a store-bought piece that’s one size bigger costs less than repairing and altering worn-out garments. That said, damaged suits may also need seamless repair and meticulous patchwork, often with rare matching fabrics that are hard to source.

Fabric Type
The materials we use for your garments will also determine the cost of alterations. Some pieces use premium and delicate fabrics like silk, premium wools, velvet, lace, and cashmere that take longer to work with than versatile and common fabrics.

Seamstresses specialise in sewing garments and outfits from fabric and designs. On the other hand, tailors adjust, restyle, and fit clothes to suit a wearer’s specifications. While you’ll find us busy hemming and mending suits, we also provide dry cleaning and expert alterations. Visit us at Shop L09, Level 1 near David Jones, Westfield Woden, or contact us at (02) 6170 3404 to learn more.

Definitely! Your suit should fit your body shape, not the other way around.

Just drop your pieces off at our shop and we’ll take your measurements and desired fit. Our stylist tailors can turn old suits and pre-loved garments into stunning pieces with brand-new fit and feel. Each client has a unique style and fit for their store-bought garments, as some are bought too tight, loose, or plain to stand out in a crowded event.

Visit us at Shop L09, Level 1 near David Jones, Westfield Woden, and let us know about your alteration needs.

At LookSmart Alterations in Westfield Woden, we provide professional clothing alteration services for the following garments:

  • Casual clothing
  • Wedding dresses
  • Corporate and Wedding Suits
  • Bespoke tailoring
  • Invisible mending for a seamless fix on tears, zips, holes, frays

You can also include dry cleaning on top of the alterations for an extra fee. When you opt for it, we’ll dry clean the garment after alterations so you’re ready to wear them as soon as you pick them up.

All our alterations and repairs are made with attention to the smallest detail and leave no trace of seams and imperfections. A few hanging threads and improper seams are obvious signs of poor craftsmanship and could ruin your confidence wearing the altered piece.

For dresses and suits that require meticulous repair from damages, holes, and tears, we provide invisible mending services. We’ll take individual threads from the garment’s interior and carefully reweave them onto the damaged areas, leaving a seamless finish.

Yes! You can pay for dry cleaning and have your piece cleaned and cared for after all alterations are finished. Get a style-ready outfit fitted with precision the next day when you claim it back.

We expertly and carefully handle premium fabrics such as suede, velvet, satin, cashmere, premium wool, and silk, which are highly susceptible to machine-washed and detergent damage. LookSmart only uses fabric-safe solvents and maintains a careful approach when steaming or drying your pieces.

Leave your garments to us and claim them in pristine and fresh condition.

Competitor Guarantee: Still not happy? We will pay for a third-party shop of your choice to fix your garment, not exceeding our prices.

Note that claims against these guarantees must be presented within 4 weeks from the date of receipt.
