How to find the right tailor for your clothing alterations

Getting hold of a good tailor for dress alterations (or sometimes for even simple fixes), like hemming, can be difficult. We’ve put together a few tips for you to consider before choosing a tailor for your alterations clothing:

• Ask your stylish friends where they get their clothes altered. You can also ask high-end clothing stores where they send their clients for tailoring as they are likely to recommend only the best.
• Look for a tailor with experience, especially if you want alterations done on an expensive designer garment.
• Request the tailor to show a piece of clothing he/she just altered. See if there are loose threads or if the finished product is neat.
• Don’t assign a complex job to a tailor you are engaging for the first time in the beginning. Instead, give him/her a small task of mending clothes, such as taking in a waistline.
