What does a clothing alteration include?

Your seamstress or tailor is skilled in working with textiles, but especially clothing, to create, repair, and alter clothes. Here are some of the most popular alteration services and what you can expect when you book them:

Clothing alteration service - sewing

Need some custom sewing work to create a design from scratch or custom-fit to your size? Hire a seamstress or dressmaker to create or customise your dress or garment with great attention to detail. They’ll start by measuring your shape and size with a soft tape measure to ensure the perfect fit. They’ll consult with you on designs and fabrics, like selecting between chinos or khakis, before choosing or customising a pattern and cutting out the pieces. 

Then, these clothes or dress alterations near you will sew your garment or dress, taking care to finish off any edges with an overlocking stitch. Most dressmakers will request you to come in for a final fitting where you can try on the (mostly finished) garment and they can make final adjustments.

Clothing alteration service - formal wear alterations

When you want to look your best, it’s so important that your clothing is tailored to perfectly fit. Whether you need bridal alterations, school graduation alterations, wedding dress alterations, formal pants repair near you, corporate wear alterations, or suit alterations near you, a professional tailor can help. They’ll take your exact measurements and then ask you to try on the outfit or dress, ideally with the shoes you plan to wear. Then they’ll note or mark up any parts that need taking in or loosening, and where the hem needs to sit based on your shoe height. They’ll use a mixture of machine and hand-sewing techniques to alter your clothing and finalise everything with a final fitting before your event.

Clothing alteration service - clothing adjustments

Most clothes you buy off the rack won’t fit perfectly, or you might need your favourite clothes adjusted for your body shape over time. Book clothing alterations near you to help with dress shortening, garment shortening, and even school uniform alterations for those kids who won’t stop growing. 

Clothing adjustments and shirt alterations usually involve taking seams in or out and adjusting the hem. Most hems have a few centimetres of extra fabric, so you can add extra length, or take it up for the perfect fit.

Clothing alteration service - clothing repairs

When your favourite dress or your slim or skinny jeans break, you don’t have to throw them away. Get professional clothes repair services near you to take a look and see if they can save your clothes with techniques like zipper repair, seam repair, new lining, hole patching, button sewing, and more. 

Extend the life of your clothes - it’s better for the environment and much more budget-friendly, too.

Embroidery on x 4 bathrobes AND hemming of x 5 curtains

$145

East Melbourne VIC, Australia

3rd Jun 2025

Hello! I’m looking for a keen home sewing person. I’ve been very sick lately & I’ve bought matching cozy fluffy bathrooms for my mum & two sisters as a thank you for helping me out while I am sick/tired etc. I’d like someone who can sew / embroider to be able to sew our family nicknames onto the back of each of the X 4 robes. I think sewing on a braided dark pink ribbon in the shape of each short nickname would be easiest & perfect and look very special & cute… open to ideas. AND Aside from this, I’ve bought x 5 sets of cheap Ikea curtains for my vintage caravan that I need hemmed to caravan window length, so I can lease the van out for some income. I will get the measurements. I’ve got the robes & curtains with me in East Melbourne. If you could pick up / drop off when done that would be amazing as I am not very mobile at the moment.. However, I DO have my old car with me and I could drop off to you at some point when I am not sick - as long as not too far & not in a busy traffic period. I am new to Melbourne & not very confident driving in the hectic traffic…🙈 I’ve made what I hope is a reasonable offer for your time on this - but please make a different offer if you think necessary & I will consider. I don’t have a lot of cash left just at the moment (not working for several months as sick), but I do want to be fair & reasonable about the payment - and it is very important to me that this present is special & beautiful for my family, and also that my beloved old vintage caravan is functional, and so I can lease it for some income while I am not well. I have included approx $25 in this offer for the braid to be sewn on & matching thread for that & the green curtains. I have also included $20 for pick up & drop off to East Melbourne. Thank you.

The budget I am setting includes $50 per hour for 3 hours, plus $25 for bringing a sewing machine and any basic equipment. If you are not able to bring these tools, please reflect that in your offer. *Note: I have needles, thread, scissors, bobbins, measuring tape, some patterns and practice fabrics and some other basics, but no chalk.
