I would not recommend this tailor (Rimi). It's simply not worth paying good money for such poor craftsmanship and terrible customer service. Do yourself a favour and go somewhere else. read more
Great quality dress making and beautiful dress delivered on a deadline. Big round of applause!

Maureen is an absolute artist. She transformed my wedding dress from something very plain off the…read morerack (online shopping) into a stunning masterpiece that now fits me perfectly. Maureen is so welcoming and very talented, with just a couple of fittings she removed the ghastly inserts from the front of the dress, adjusted the fit, created a hook to hitch the back of my train and recut the neckline. Amazing! I now absolutely love my dress & am so grateful to Maureen! I would recommend her to anyone!

To start with the service was exceptional. I was based in Canberra & they decided to take me on in…read moreCanberra as a customer & flew in to take measurements etc. I was getting fishtail pants made plus shirt & waistcoat for my wedding in 7 months time. My pants were amazing, the shirt was good if not a little tight around the arms, they never measured my arms(apparently girls can't have muscles) but it fitted good. Due to a family death, I couldn't make one fitting. So was mailed the waistcoat 3 weeks before my wedding, it was too big. Sent photos to be told it'd 'flatten out after a pressing'. I pushed to get the alterations I wanted. It came back fitting much better but they took in the sides not just the darts I asked for, making it a bit tight over the hips. Also no pockets. I couldn't unpick them. This was super frustrating as I specifically asked for a pocket watch pocket. I was told 'all of our pockets open' yet when I took it to a local tailor he couldn't find any pocket and had to put in a small pocket for me. I also never got the embroidery I asked for of both of our initials and the date, not on my waistcoat inner collar or shirt. When I mentioned this, it was never responded to. I feel as soon as I paid my last payment (just before my waistcoat was posted out to me) they dropped me like I was too much trouble. I would of thought 7 months would be plenty of time, but 5 days out and it's not what I paid for. So dissapointed as I paid over $2000, I will never use or recommend these people to anyone ever. It seems all the men are happy they just can't cope with women's bodies, no matter what they tell you.

Do yourself a favour and meet this beautiful woman!

I'm going to interpret that as corsets. So, they do corsets. Unlike the chain stores that have been dominating the clothing alterations market in recent years, the service at Brunswick Alterations is personable and practical. The staff will patiently explain the limitations in what can and can't be done. It's also very reasonably priced, although I've never had anything too complicated or high end done. They're also relatively fast. Brunswick Alterations is definitely worth a look in for all your clothing adjustment needs.

I don't want some young whipper-snapper fresh out of RMIT Fashion school, I want me a knowledgeable wise tailor who has done this kind of thing for decades. Enter the Galati's. These are people you can trust with those pants that are a bit too long, that dress with a rip in it and even with more difficult and pricey items like your leather jacket or Bridesmaid dresses. They are a family business who have been around for yonks so they must be doing something right. They have always been reasonably priced and get the job done quick smart.

I was given the price up-front. Not only was the total cost for this was only $35, I wasable to collect all these items, with works complete that afternoon.

I have used this place a few times to alter some formal dresses. Each time, the finished work looked professional and was exactly what I asked for. I have also found they are really great when you need something finished in a hurry. I needed a dress taken in and I needed it finished the next day and they were able to help. The prices are reasonable, around $10-20 for a hem on a formal dress. They don't have EFTPOS facilities here, so you will have to make sure you have cash, but there is a Bendigo ATM right next door.

I shopped around and found they are more or less market price depending on your fabric choices (I went with Scottish tweed of course...), but definitely front runners in service.
