Simple clothing repairs.
With the credit crunch hitting us all, now is the time to think about changing your out of date clothes rather than replacing them. By changing we mean altering to give a new look, repairing to extend the lifetime of a favourite garment or completely re-fashioning a garment to make it more modern or fit your new image better.
Re-Fashioning Garments
Styles change, our tastes change and so unfortunately do our body shapes but luckily with our help so can your clothes.
Its generally difficult if not impossible to make a size 8 a size 16 but within reason bring in your garment and we will give you a few suggestions on how we can improve it.
Or maybe you already know what you want and are just looking for a simple repair.
