Top Suit Tailor related questions

The final cost depends on several factors, including the complexity of the task, the fabric used, the type of suit and stitching, and the skill level of the tailor. 


Alterations for suits start at $2 for simple tasks such as button replacement or tightening and can reach up to $200 for more extensive changes like replacing the jacket lining. For alterations on suit pants, moving collar buttons may cost $5, while tapering a full leg (four seams) can cost up to $60. For a more accurate estimate, it's best to consult with your Tasker.

When choosing a suit tailor on Airtasker, make sure to check the Tasker's profile and reviews from past clients. You can also ask for samples of their work to gauge their skills and style. It's important to hire suit tailors near you with top ratings, proven expertise, and a strong history of great customer service.

The time frame depends on the type of tailoring. Made-to-measure suits usually take about six to eight weeks, depending on the complexity of the design, availability of materials, and the tailor's workload. For bespoke suits, some tailors might have you wait up to four months. For an exact estimate, it's best to discuss directly with your Tasker.


If you need a suit fast for a formal event, consider buying an off-the-rack suit and having it altered instead.

Made-to-measure suits use existing patterns and adjust them to fit your measurements. Aside from choosing the fabric and style, there is very limited opportunity to customize this type of suit. On the other hand, bespoke suits are entirely crafted from scratch with patterns tailored specifically to you, with every detail personalized.

Here is a list of what suit tailors near you can typically do to improve the fit:

  • Shorten or lengthen the trouser hems

  • Adjust the trouser leg width

  • Alter the jacket sleeve length

  • Change garment linings

  • Add sleeve buttons

  • Adjust waist fit


Some alterations, like reshaping jacket quarters, altering lapels, or changing button configurations, may not always be feasible.



To ensure a perfect fit, a tailor will take precise measurements during your fitting. You'll have the opportunity to discuss style preferences, fabric choices, and any specific alterations you want. There will be trial fittings throughout the session to refine the suit’s fit and appearance.

  1. Follow the care instructions provided by your tailor, which may include dry cleaning recommendations and proper storage methods. 

  2. Use a garment brush between wears to remove dust.

  3. Hang your suit on a well-shaped hanger to maintain its structure. 

  4. Avoid excessive wearing to extend its lifespan.

  5. Promptly address minor repairs like loose buttons or small tears to prevent bigger issues.

What does a suit tailor service include?

Can't find time for suit fittings at your local tailor shop? Let Airtasker link you with suit tailors who bring the service to you. Have your measurements taken at home and your newly tailored suit delivered once it's ready!


You can request various services from suit tailors near you, such as alterations, repairs, made-to-measure suits, and bespoke tailoring. Learn more about these services here:


Suit alteration

Buying off-the-rack suits is a budget-friendly option, and if you’re lucky, you can find a stylish piece for cheap. However, these ready-to-wear suits, pre-owned or not, often don't fit well. If you want a perfect fit that complements your body shape and gives a polished, cohesive look, consider hiring Taskers for suit alterations near you.


Common requests include adjusting the length of sleeves and pants, taking in or letting out the waist, and narrowing the shoulders or legs. Experienced suit tailors can also handle more intricate changes, such as adjusting the jacket's chest or tapering the suit for a slimmer silhouette.


Suit repair

Have you ripped your cuff on something sharp, found a tiny hole in your favorite suit, or broken a zipper? No worries! Suits are bound to get a little wear and tear with regular use, but with Airtasker, you can easily find suit tailors near you who can address any issue. Some rips or holes may require reweaving for a seamless finish or a patch if the damage is too large, but even if this is the case, rest assured your suit will look good as new in no time.


Have other pieces of clothing that need some repairs? You can find clothing repair experts on Airtasker to handle them for you.


Made-to-measure suits

Made-to-measure suits start with an existing pattern that's customized to fit your body measurements (hence, made-to-measure). This option is more affordable and quicker to make compared to bespoke suits but still offers a better fit and higher quality than off-the-rack options. The process kicks off with you choosing the fabrics and styles you want, then your tailor takes precise measurements to ensure a great fit.


Custom tailoring

For one-of-a-kind tailored suits near you, go for custom tailoring. With this option, you get to choose every detail that goes into your garment—from the fabric and lining to the buttons and stitching—and align them with your personal style. A bespoke tailored suit is made from scratch, crafted precisely to your body measurements and preferences. The process involves multiple fittings to ensure it fits you correctly. 


Got a big event coming up? Make sure you’re all set. Use Airtasker to find same-day dry cleaning services and have your new suit ready when you need it. Need a hand with event planning? You can also hire event setup specialists and decorators to help you throw a party to remember.

A modest 1920's swimsuit made with comfortable seams and jersey cotton

$90

Santa Monica, CA 90403, USA

Oct 12th 2023

A modest swimsuit using the fabric pattern of a two-piece swimsuit, consisting of a swim shirt and swim shorts. I'm hoping to recreate a swimsuit from the 1920's. I want the swimsuit to have stretchy jersey cotton, rubber elastane, non-itchy seams, bra padding and a tiny bit large/loose. It must be comfortable above all else. I have a sensory issue. The fabric design/pattern uses a blue, solid pattern, or inspired by greek blue and white. I hope to meet the designer in-person to do measurements, find materials, converse on schedules and closely see the progress of the swimsuit. It would help if the designer is interested in creating an authentic swimsuit from the 1920-40, and has knowledge of the time period's fashion. - Due date: Flexible
