With a suit altered by us, you can look polished, powerful, and professional. Knowing you look stylish and influential means you can comfortably concentrate on your work. Our custom fitting service will make you look stylish and give you a huge confidence boost—just what you need before that big meeting.
Of course, our service doesn’t stop there. LookSmart experts will help you choose shirts and accessories that will enhance your look—whether that is specific colours that match or a tie pin and cufflink combination that will provide the perfect finishing touch.
Highly Skilled Tailoring and Clothing Repair Services
We know that somewhere in your closet, there is a much-loved garment that you cannot wear because it is damaged. Whether it has a rip or tear, a broken zip, or even a burn, our repair service can help. All our repairs are guaranteed, and you can include dry cleaning services to make the item as good as new.
If you have a damaged item that is valuable – either through physical cost or emotional meaning, you might want to consider using our Invisible Mending service. Although this is only available in certain stores and has a longer turnaround, the results are near-perfect. To complete an invisible mend, we take individual threads from an unseen interior fabric and weave them to fix the damaged area. This process meticulously matches the pattern and colours of the material, making the repaired area imperceptible. The results depend greatly on the material used, and this is a specialist service only offered in a few locations.
If you want to discuss your clothing alterations with the Mount Albert team, call 09 845 1623 or visit us in Westfield St Lukes. We look forward to helping you get that perfect fit!

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a tailor do?
What do you wear to get tailored?
How long does an alteration or tailoring take?
Simple suit alterations, bespoke dresses, and casual clothing adjustments take 24 hours to complete. If you include our dry cleaning service, your clothes will be altered, dry-cleaned, and ready to wear on the day you pick them up.
Turnaround times are longer for bulk jobs that require adding garment details and suit-fitting entire entourages or bridal parties. Visit our Mount Albert store or call us on (09) 845 1623 for enquiries on our alteration, restyling, and remodelling services. Get ready to feel amazing again!
How much will the alteration cost?
The cost of our alteration services will depend on several factors relevant to your style, the garment you want to alter, and the jobs required to achieve your desired results.
We aim to satisfy your personal tastes and transform your dresses into bespoke and custom-fitted outfits that highlight your best features.
The following factors influence the alteration costs:
Type of Alteration
Tailor-fitting pants, clothes, and suits are easier than altering wedding dresses and bridal parties. Shortening or taking a suit in also requires less work and materials than letting it out or lengthening it.
Number of Alteration Jobs
When you visit us for an alteration, our expert tailors will assess your suit, take measurements, and determine how many alteration jobs are required to achieve your unique style and fit.
Condition and Age
Altering new and barely used clothes will take less time than repairing and fitting worn-out suits, particularly those with rips, tears, and holes. Older fabrics with unique patterns and designs are also harder to source and may take time to repair, depending on the quality of the materials and accessories added.
Fabric Type
Delicate materials and fabrics, such as lace, suede, tulle, velvet, leather, and silk used in your bespoke suits may require more meticulous repairs. Visit our store or contact us at (09) 845 1623 to learn more.
Extra Details
Custom laces, embroidery, and beadings enhance an outfit’s style, glamour, and beauty. The accessories you want to add and the complexity of the design will affect the overall cost of customising the garment.
