In the last six weeks or so I've brought two dresses to be altered here. Both were brand new, one…read morewas a polyester faux-linen party dress from Target that required shorter straps; that service cost about $30 and was done in under a week, with excellent results. The other was a poly blend sheath dress for work, which was only available two sizes too large, but was such a pretty color and so cheap that I bought it in hopes of having it tailored to fit. Unfortunately, the $50 tailoring job did not leave me with a dress I would actually wear--it's still too big in some places, and now, too small in others. I will end up donating that dress, having learned some lessons about buying things in my own size. Customer service here is pretty good, if not outstanding. I've heard the woman who runs the business argue over prices, which are somewhat high, but she's also renting a retail space in Broadway, so you're paying for convenience. I would feel comfortable returning, but I would probably consider other businesses offering the same service first.

The tailor I've been using in Rose Bay also does a great job BUT you need to measure your slacks or…read moreskirt etc yourself which is not always a good thing. I've passed this tailor before at the mall though never really gave it much thought. Until today....Just bought a pair of slacks and walking back towards the lift and saw this little teeny place. Since I needed to go to Coles for groceries anyway I thought 'Why not?' Vanee was very friendly and helpful. They are called 'Express' because their sign says they will have your work done in an hour. And my slacks were ready in an hour! Vanee asked if I'd like to try them on but now, of course, I needed to get my groceries home so...no, I did not try them on. I'll follow up if there's a problem but so far, so good. Friendly. Competitive prices. 1 hour. How good is that???

I recently commissioned a suit and shirt from Herman from Herman Bros & Co. This was my first…read moreexperience with made-to-measure clothing, and I was very impressed by the quality of the service. Herman is a pleasure to deal with, his expertise and attention to detail are outstanding, he listens carefully to his customers and guides them through the myriad of choices of fabric and styles, all the way down to the most subtle detail, such as ensuring that the left cuff of a shirt is slightly larger so as to accommodate a watch. Following the commissioning of the garment, Herman kept me informed of the progress throughout the process, and I was amazed at how quickly my garment were made. When I went in for the fitting, I was delighted to see how well-made the suit and the shirt were, and how nice they looked. I would unreservedly recommend Herman Bros & Co. for any tailoring needs.

By far the best value suit I own now comes from Herman Bros and Co…read more Herman is a very knowledgeable guy and does not rush you through your first fitting. Herman talks you through the dozens of options at each stage of the process, including jacket and trouser style, lapel width, lining, buttons, etc. My first suit from Herman Bros came back in about six weeks and the fit was spot on first go. Herman's prices are incredible value when you consider an off the rack suit with alterations would have cost about the same. I'll be returning in a few months to fill out the remainder of my wardrobe and couldn't be more pleased.

Farrrrrr out!! A guy can dream, can't he?…read more This place is really awesome, but will be totally out of reach for 98% of the Australian population. Zink and Sons Tailors have been around for 116 years and as such, have perfected the art of suit making. As soon as you walk in the door, you know you've arrived at somewhere very wealthy and rich in history and rich in nature, with the name of the store written within the stone front step. Who ever Zink is, he's established a long-running business, and I think (and hope) I just met one of the sons, who I'd assume are now running the business. Fabrics line the walls, some exorbitantly price suits on hangers are on the wall, and a very knowledgable middled aged man is available to suit you up. For upwards of $1500 a suit, that is. Well, if you're well-off enough to afford it, this would be the place, but for the rest of us, we should just walk past, catch a brief glimpse of the inside, and take our dreams with us as we move on.

Robert, the father, brings Saville Row-era style and knowledge. Daniel, the son, brings a younger sense of fashion. Michael, the cutter, brings European tradition. They are very attentive in choice of fabrics, measuring and fitting. I travel regularly to Europe, the UK and the USA, and have had clothes made there. ZInk and Sons is better! Yes, tailor made clothes are more expensive than off-the-rack, but Zink's prices are reasonable compared to their competitors.
