Tailors Services
What does a tailor do?
This service covers tailoring, clothing alterations, and sometimes even repair for different kinds of garments. This includes men’s suits, women’s coats, trousers, wedding dresses, and even down jackets. In the case of made-to-measure and bespoke tailoring, your wardrobe will show off your personality and fit your lifestyle in a way that off-the-rack can’t match.
And when you book your clothes tailor on our platform, you get some great added perks, such as picking a reviewed and rated tailor in your area, having a tailor go to your home or office, and working within your budget! Do note that some details may vary depending on the tailor you hire, so make sure that your task post is as detailed as possible.
Alteration tailor near you
Most tailoring work includes altering a garment to fit you better. If you plan to get an off-the-rack item and take it to clothing alterations near you, it’s best to choose a size that fits the widest point of your body. From there, your local tailor will take in or cinch the rest of the item. Tailors can also make sleeves or pant legs slimmer, adjust the straps and bust darts of a dress, shorten the sleeves of a shirt, add the lining, and add buttons or hook-and-eye clasps.
On the other hand, a tailor cannot make a garment bigger or longer. They also can’t fix a bad shoulder fit on a jacket or coat. Also, it is inadvisable to let out the stitches in fabrics like linen, cotton, and silk, since holes will show.
Clothing repair
Most local tailors near you can also repair clothing. This can mean fixing a zipper, stopping a hem from fraying, repairing a rip, or reweaving a hole. When you book a clothing tailor near you to repair your item, they’ll tell you if the item can still be repaired, and what the risks (and cost) of the repair would be. They can also offer advice on how to better care for your clothing or avoid further damage, such as using a mesh bag in the laundry for your more delicate items or getting your clothes dry-cleaned instead.
Made-to-measure and bespoke tailoring
Tailoring or altering your off-the-rack garment is a fast and affordable way to make clothes fit you better. But if you want your wardrobe to fit you to a T, made-to-measure or bespoke tailoring is the way to go. While these services are offered at tailor shops near you, Airtasker lets you book a bespoke tailor who can go to your home or office.
Your Tasker brings the supplies, takes your measurements and requests (or in the case of made-to-measure, lets you choose a pattern), and assists you with the fittings! This service saves time while still making sure you look stunning at that upcoming event - skilled Taskers can help you with planning for the big day as well!

Affordable Tailor Needed for Custom Shirts, Dresses, and Alterations
$5
Brisbane QLD, Australia
8th Aug 2024
I am seeking an experienced and reliable tailor in Brisbane for ongoing custom clothing and alteration services. The job includes: • Custom Stitching: Creating shirts and dresses based on provided designs or your own. I will supply the fabric, primarily cotton. If another fabric/material is needed, I’m happy to shop with you at Lincraft or your preferred store. • Alterations: Adjustments to existing clothing to improve fit and style. Requirements: • Experience in tailoring, with a portfolio or examples of previous work. • Ability to work with cotton fabric (as I’m unable to wear any other material). • Reasonable pricing with the flexibility to negotiate. A placeholder rate of $5 is listed, but I’m prepared to pay up to $35 per item depending on the work involved. • Availability for ongoing work rather than a one-time project. I’m looking for long lasting relationship, again, not a one-time project. I value quality work and am looking for someone who can become my go-to tailor for all my clothing needs. If you're interested, please reach out with your rates, a bit about your experience, and examples of your work if possible. Let’s discuss how we can collaborate! Location: Brisbane, QLD (I can drop off and pick up items, if it’s within 10km from Brisbane city)

I need a bridesman outfit made. I have found a satin fabric that very closely matches the bridesmaids’ dresses. Wanting to find someone who can make a waist coat, tie and trousers out of this fabric for my bridesman. I am unsure what is involved, but given satin is such a thin fabric without much shape, probably need to start with a base of normal trousers from a heavy fabric, and just sew on the satin as an outer layer if that’s possible? Happy to chat. Please send me your quotes.

Calling good quality seamstresses/tailors for a new clothing label. Whats required is someone who takes good care of their work, who has the capacity to make shirts, jackets, pants, shorts. Cuts already made however it would be good if they were able to make new cuts. Potentially dresses in the future and someone who isn't far from New Farm so that we can work together to make the process a bit more streamlined. Thank you - Due date: Flexible
