What do dressmaker services include?

Dressmakers make or alter all types of womenswear, from everyday trousers to outfits for special occasions. A dressmaker usually specialises in dresses, such as summer dresses, prom dresses, and bridal gowns. Some dressmakers also work on menswear and childrenswear.  

Our platform connects you with custom dressmaking, dress alterations, and clothing repair services. Dressmakers can assist you with the following tasks. 

Bespoke dressmaking 

Recreate a favourite dress you no longer have or have a bespoke dress perfect for your shape and style. Dressmakers can sketch up an original design for you, or take inspiration from a photograph or existing garment. 

Dressmakers can make bespoke pieces, such as skirts, summer dresses, ball gowns, and costumes. If you’re looking for unique t-shirts to sell or to give as gifts to family, you can also hire a Tasker to print your designs onto t-shirts. 

Dress alteration 

Dress alteration ensures your clothes look and fit just the way you like it. A dressmaker can sew sleeves onto a maxi dress, tighten a dress around the waist, put a zip onto a dress, or adjust the length of your trousers. Have you found your dream prom dress online but the bust is a little too showy? No problem! Your seamstress can fix that up for you as well, by shortening the straps or stitching in between to close the gap. You can even have your gown dry cleaned before your special event. Our platform lets you get anything done!

Anglesea VIC, Australia

13th Oct 2023

I am hoping to arrange an evening dress to be made for my step-mum. We are trying to arrange in-house visits to Anglesea for the measuring and fitting. She has purchased a dress online which she likes the design of, although isn't too keen on the fabric so is wanting the same dress design, with an alternative fabric. She has found a sample of the sequinned type fabric she'd like at Spotlight, which I have attached a photo of, and the top of the dress she'd like in a black lace (in the same positioning as the existing dress). All fabric will be supplied. I believe the dress will also need some lining. - Due date: Before Saturday, 18 November 2023

We have 24 felt pin boards which measure 60cm x 40cm x 3cm and we would like to recover these. The design would be a slip that would go over each pin board and it would zip across at the bottom. We wouldn't necessary need the cover to be in felt but would need a strong fabric.
