Personalised Garment Refinement
A focused fitting service for garments that need a more considered shape, finish, or feel.
A More Personal Way to Refine Your Wardrobe
I begin by looking at how the garment fits your body and how you want it to function. Together, we identify the adjustments that will make the greatest difference, from proportion and length to closures, shaping, and finishing details. The consultation is practical, collaborative, and tailored to the garment in front of me.
I work with care to preserve the character and construction of each piece while improving how it feels on you. You will leave with a clear understanding of the recommended alterations and the intended result. This service suits both everyday wardrobe pieces and garments with sentimental or design value.
