Dressmaking & Alterations
From a simple hem to a dress designed from scratch. Every piece is cut, fitted and finished by hand in our Borehamwood studio.
What We Do
Whether you need something made, something adjusted or something completely new — it all starts with a conversation.
Made to measure, designed around you
A garment created entirely for you. We work from your vision — an occasion, an idea, a fabric you love — and build something that fits your body and your moment perfectly.
Allow 6–8 weeks · Pricing at consultation
Your design, made to your measurements
Bring us a picture, a pattern or a garment you love and we will recreate it to fit you. A great option when you know what you want but need it made to your exact measurements.
Allow 4–6 weeks · Pricing at consultation
Professional fitting and adjustments
From hemming and taking in to zip replacements and more complex restructuring. The same care and precision as our bespoke work, for garments you already own.
Alterations
Most alterations are straightforward. Here are starting prices for our most common requests — final pricing depends on the garment and the work involved.
Bring the garment to your appointment and we will give you an exact price on the spot. No obligation.
“Many of our bespoke clients started with a simple alteration. Once you feel what a perfect fit is like, you start to wonder what else is possible.”
