What do dress alteration services include?
A dress tailor can take on almost any altering request to make sure that your dress fits according to your exact measurements and unique body type. From simple trimming to extensive adjustments, they can take care of the entire process so you won't have to deal with an ill-fitting dress–especially if you're attending or organising an event. Here are some standard alteration services that you can get:
Prom dress alterations
Wearing a perfectly fitted dress that showcases your figure and best assets is a surefire way to look and feel confident for prom night! But if your prom dress, unfortunately, doesn't fit right, a dress alteration service can be the ultimate lifesaver. Your dress tailor might ask you to put on your dress–with and without your heels on–to know the exact alterations and adjustments needed. Upon request, they can also add beads and other embellishments if you want to do a little restyling or enhancing.
Wedding dress alterations
Planning the perfect wedding takes months–some even years–to guarantee that everything will run smoothly. And on your special day, the last thing you need to worry about is a wedding dress that's either too snug or too loose. At least six weeks before the occasion, consider booking an alteration service to make sure that your wedding dress has the perfect fit from the moment you walk down the aisle until your very last dance.Â
Your tailor can shorten the hem or cut the straps a little if they appear too long. They can also take our out on the bust, and hips to get you that elegant, sculpted silhouette and make sure that you look amazing in your wedding photos!
Formal dress alteration
Some ball gowns and evening dresses for formal events come with a hefty price tag, so it's natural for you to want to get your money's worth. In case your gown is hugging you a bit tighter than usual, or your cocktail dress feels loose in some parts of your body, a dress alteration service can come in handy. They can also re-strap, re-bead, or even shorten them a little, giving it a completely new design without the expense of a new dress.
Once you have your clothes sorted, you can now fully prepare for your event! We can help you find a hairstylist to do your hair or even a professional artist to take care of your make-up! For the finishing touch, put on your favourite jewellery and high heels, and you are all set!

I ordered a dress online and the sizing chart was innacurate, I went off my body measurements which put me at a size 14AU and size US12 and I was worried it would be too small if I sized down instead of up. Typically in Canada I'm a size 8 depending on the item. Anyways the dress needs to be taken in at the waste and just generally made to look more pleasant (I don't fill out the breast area/inserts are large) Dress type: knee length and fitted at the waste but flowy otherwise with the zipper on the back Material: chiffon on top with a smooth material as the underlayer Time frame: ideally done by April 8th but must be completed by April 10th

Hi there. I’m hoping you can help! I have a wedding on the 15th September and have run into a issue with my bridesmaids dress. The dress the bride has chosen only went up to a size 16 and I am between 18-20. I was wondering if it was possible to alter the dress to fit me (would it be possible to use the material from a duplicate dress to help extend?) I have a large chest and big hips which unfortunately the material has no give. I have included the link to the dress for reference. https://petalandpup.com.au/collections/black-dresses/products/lucille-dress-black Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
