Repaired, altered, made to fit.
From a quick fix to a full alteration, we mend and remake clothing, curtains and soft furnishings by hand — so the things you love last longer.
What we can do
A few of the jobs that come into the studio — if it's stitched, just ask.
Repairs & mending
Broken zips, dropped hems, torn seams, missing buttons, moth holes and worn linings — brought back to life.
Alterations
Taking in, letting out, shortening and reshaping so your clothes fit the way you want them to.
Occasional wear
Formal outfit adjustments: dresses, suits, shirts and accessories for those important moments.
Curtains & soft furnishings
Curtains, blinds, cushions and covers — relined, rehemmed, resized and beautifully refreshed for your home.

Good to know
Do I need an appointment?
No — just drop in during opening hours and we'll take a look. For bigger undertakings, it's worth calling ahead and booking an appointment.
How much will it cost?
As every job is bespoke, we always discuss this before starting — up-to-date price lists are available on enquiry.
How long does it take?
Simple repairs are often quick; alterations and bespoke work take a little longer. We'll agree a timescale when you drop off.
