Professional Clothes & Dress Alterations Services

PROFESSIONAL CLOTHES & DRESS ALTERATIONS SERVICES

As Yves Saint Laurent once said,
“Fashion is not only to make women more beautiful but also to reassure them, give them confidence.”
And we couldn’t agree more.

At Big Mama, we believe that clothes should fit like a dream – or like your favourite pair of jeans that you never want to take off. The right fit can do wonders for your confidence and make you feel like a fashion queen or king. However, the nature of buying clothes off-the-rack is that you’ll never find a piece tailored to suit the specific contours and shapes of your body. That’s where our clothes and dress alteration services come in to help you achieve the perfect fit and feel confident in any outfit you put on!

Frequently Asked Questions About Professional Clothes & Dress Alterations

How long does a typical clothing alteration take?

The duration for clothes alterations varies based on the specific task and our team’s current workload. Simple tasks like hemming or button replacements might be completed within hours or a day. However, intricate alteration services, such as resizing or restructuring garments, could extend the timeframe. It’s always best to consult our team for a more accurate estimate tailored to your needs.

How much do alteration services cost?

Alteration costs are contingent on the intricacy of the work required. From minor tweaks to major modifications, the price can differ. At Big Mama, we prioritise transparency in our pricing model. Before initiating any clothes alteration process, we ensure our customers receive a clear and comprehensive cost estimate, allowing them to make informed decisions. Always feel free to inquire about any specific pricing concerns.

Can I alter any type of clothing?

Most clothes alterations can be done on a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, wool, silk, and synthetic materials. However, some delicate or specialty fabrics may require more specialised equipment or expertise. It’s always best to consult with a professional before making any decisions to ensure the best outcome for your garment.

What's the process of getting clothes altered?

To get your clothes altered, select the garment and identify the changes needed. Next, visit a reputable alteration service provider like Big Mama for a fitting session. Our tailor will take measurements and pin the garment to show the adjustments.

Once you approve, the clothing will be altered per the discussed changes. After the alteration, a final fitting ensures the perfect fit. Always remember to wear appropriate undergarments and shoes for accurate measurements.

What's the best way to maintain altered garments?

For altered clothes, it’s crucial to follow care instructions to preserve the alterations. Hand wash or use gentle machine cycles to prevent strain on new seams. Avoid high heat when ironing, especially on seams, to prevent distortion. Store the clothes properly, using padded hangers for heavy items. Regularly check for any loose threads or undone stitches to address them promptly. Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and pristine condition of your tailored pieces.

Can clothes alterations be undone if I change my mind?

Once alterations are made on clothes, they are generally difficult to undo. It’s important to communicate clearly with your alteration service provider before any work is done to ensure that you are both on the same page regarding the desired outcome.
