What do dress alteration services include?

From simple trimmings to extensive adjustments, a dress tailor can take on almost any alteration request to ensure that your dress fits perfectly according to your exact measurements and unique body type. No need to worry about an ill-fitting dress, especially when you're preparing for an unforgettable event—whether it's a school dance, a wedding, or even just a second date! Here are some common alteration services you can find on Airtasker:


Dress reshaping

If you're looking to tweak the silhouette, alter the neckline, or adjust the waistline, dress reshaping is the perfect solution. This service can completely revamp the appearance and fit of your garment to better match your style and body shape and make it feel unique. A talented dress tailor can expertly manipulate the fabric's drape and structure to accentuate its flattering features to craft a dress that flawlessly complements your figure.


Dress shortening

Does that floor-length gown leave you feeling uncomfortable or longing for a more versatile look? Consider availing of dress shortening near you. Have your dress expertly tailored to get the length you prefer without compromising the original design and proportions.


Dress repair

Restore your favourite dress to its former glory and maximise its use by having it repaired. From fixing ripped seams to replacing missing beads or buttons, dress tailors can address any damages or wear-and-tear concerns that will get your dress ready for your next big event. Repairs also help prolong the lifespan of your garment so you can enjoy its beauty for more years to come.


Formal dress alterations

Some ball gowns and evening dresses for formal events can be quite an investment to purchase, so it's natural to want to maximise their use. Whether your gown feels a bit too snug or loose in certain areas, you can salvage it by having it altered. Tailors can adjust the straps, re-do the beadwork, or even shorten a dress hem to freshen up the look of your dress without the expense of getting a new one.
