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. Â
Our platform connects you with custom dressmaking, dress alterations, and clothing repair services. Dressmakers can assist you with the following tasks.Â
Bespoke dressmakingÂ
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.Â
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.Â
Dress alterationÂ
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!Â

I have this dress, funnily enough from Kmart. I bought it a few years ago and I just love it, I’ve loved it to the point it’s looking a little rough now. I was looking to get someone that’s a whiz with a sewing machine to make a pattern for it and recreate the dress for me. It’s just the perfect summer dress and I’d love to pick some fabrics and get it made in a few different colours. I also have a few dresses I need altered that I would love to discuss before I shorten them with someone that understands design and will tell me if it can be done correctly without ruining the dress and looking weird. Very flexible on price etc as I understand there will be materials involved that aren’t fixed price. Happy to travel to someone but prefer someone, some what locally so I don’t have to travel to far to deliver the dress etc :)

I design sarongs for myself to wear, I can mark out the fabric panels, and all the details, but I have no skills in sewing and assembling the bits into the garment. I can provide the design and mark-up but I need someone to actually make it. It needs someone who is a bit creative and thinking about the best way to do things, which will often be better than my original idea.
