Bridesmaid dress alterations

Postby SomethingToSay » Wed Oct 19, 2016 12:41 pm

Can anyone recommend somewhere local-ish that I can have a bridesmaid dress taken up? I'd usually go to the dry cleaner on Northcote Rd but I'll need to wear the dress and have it pinned up. The alteration itself will just be cutting as it is a net-type material with no hem. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I would whole heartedly recommend Michelle whose local business is called MOMSO.
Michelle appeared on the first series of sewing bee and was recommended by the Stockwell mums' group to me.
She is a lovely lady who will collect and drop off your garments and she works with her mum.
The alterations she did for us were superb and good value for money.
I have been meaning to recommend her so this seems the ideal time!

Years ago I went to 'Designer Alterations' in Battersea (close to Queenstown Road station) to get my bridesmaids' dresses altered. They measured up with them in the dresses, advised on appropriate length etc. The company now seems to be called 'Design and Alter'.
