Our Alterations Services

We offer the following alterations and more:


  • Shortening the hem: This alteration involves adjusting the length of a dress by either hemming it shorter or, in some cases, letting it out for a longer look.
  • Taking in/out on the hips and waist: This alteration involves making the dress narrower or wider around the hips and waist, ensuring a better fit and flattering silhouette.
  • Taking in around the chest: When a dress is too loose in the chest area, this alteration takes in the fabric to provide a snugger and more supportive fit.
  • Shortening the straps: Adjusting the length of the shoulder straps to ensure the dress fits comfortably and sits properly on the shoulders.
  • Adding a waist stay: A waist stay is a narrow piece of fabric added to the inside of a dress to help keep the waistline in place, preventing it from shifting or sagging during wear.
  • Altering the neckline: This alteration can involve changing the shape, depth or style of the neckline to achieve a desired look or improve comfort.
