Prom dress alterations

Make the dress fit like a dream.

Once you have found the dress, expert alterations turn off-the-peg into something that feels made for you.

Prom ready

Confidence starts with the right fit

Prom is a big event and the dress should feel as good as it looks. From everyday alterations to precise tailoring, we shape the length, fit and finish while respecting the design and construction of the gown.

Our reputation brings customers from across the Midlands, so booking early gives enough time for careful work and any follow-up fitting your dress may need.

Your fitting payment is not an extra charge. It secures your appointment and is deducted from the shop bill.

Simple preparation

Get the most from your fitting

Book online

Select a prom fitting directly. There is no need to send an availability enquiry first.

Bring your shoes

The shoes you plan to wear determine the correct finished length, so bring them to every fitting.

Allow enough time

Some dresses need more than one fitting. Book early, particularly during the busiest part of prom season.

Fair dress-specific pricing

A photograph cannot tell us how a dress is made.

Similar-looking prom dresses can contain completely different layers, linings, boning, fastenings and embellishments. Those differences determine the method and time required.

Individually priced for your dressWe assess its construction and quote for the specific work it needs, rather than applying one high standard price to every gown.
See it, fit it, price it properlyWe need to examine the dress and see it being worn. A photograph or description cannot support an accurate quote.

Before your fitting

A few useful tips
