What we do
Tailoring Services With a Remodelling Focus
Tailor's Touch focuses on garment remodelling and upcycling, with careful assessment before every quote and fitting.
See servicesConsult Before Cutting
We begin with a garment review and a redesign consultation, then confirm the project scope before any work starts.
Fit Review
Fit changes are checked against the garment's construction and seam allowances, so the result stays realistic and wearable.
Remodel and Reuse
We remodel dresses, skirts, shirts, and jackets into refreshed pieces that make better use of the original fabric.
Finish With Care
At collection, we review the finish and share care and pressing notes so the garment is ready to wear and maintain.

Questions Before You Book?
Get clear answers about fitting, pricing, turnaround, and how we handle remodelling projects.
How do you price a redesign project?
We start with a garment and material assessment, then discuss the redesign scope before confirming the quote. Final pricing depends on the garment construction, fabric condition, and requested fit.
Can you finish my alteration quickly?
No. Turnaround depends on the project scope, garment condition, and workshop capacity after inspection. We will give a realistic completion estimate before work begins.
Can every garment be redesigned?
Yes, if the available fabric and construction allow it. Some redesign ideas are limited by seam placement, grain, wear, or usable material in the original garment.
Do you check fit again at collection?
Yes. We can note care and pressing guidance at collection, and we review the finished garment again so any final adjustment can be handled carefully.
How can I make an appointment?
You can book by phone, email, contact form, or a fitting appointment. Monday to Friday is by appointment from 09:00 to 19:00, and Saturday is by appointment.
