When I travelled to London last year for a wedding I was not prepared. Luckily I found this place and decided to give them a try. I'm so glad I did. They were fast, well priced, and most importantly GOOD. Everyone commented on how good I looked at the wedding, and I felt like someone rich and important lol. Definitely try them if you need your clothes altered. They're tops!

A Service orientated company with a passionate business owner.
The quality of on site service by experienced tailors was exceptional.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 017 Jan 2018Previous reviewThis is a Service based in a great location, my feedback is they need "More Attention To Detail"
Having spent a whopping £1100 to have 5 suites altered they let themselves down by simple little things:
Not checking for missing buttons! And not "Tapping" trouser length alterations.
When I went to "Refit" the suites rather than bring one out at a time "Pressed" they gave me creased suites to try on?
And why after spending all that money do they not present them back to you on super quality suite hangers and in bespoke branded suite bags! It would be worth the investment for advertising and customer satisfaction.
It seems the common theme is customers are taken back by the cost when being fitted and quoted!! So BEST to ask for an outline QUOTE before you start the fitting!
My overall opinion is the work may be quality and worth the money but the service and detail lets them down. - Joanne L.London, United Kingdom024 Aug 2015
Do not go to these guys for your wedding dress alterations!
I brought my Anna Campbell dress and not only did they do a shonky job on the hemline (it was wavy, not straight!!!) they put in very inferior cups for the chest area. The lady that looked after me didn't speak much English so didn't know how to dress me and was tying the knots at the back not as bows (as they should be) but as though it was a Sainsbury's plastic bag.
They clearly don't know how alter a wedding dress, nor do they take their job seriously. I paid £150 for the lot only to have to pay the same price again to another tailor to have to re-do the lot.
I'm just glad that another alterations place could help out instead. Not only did they spend the necessary time to pin it properly, they knew EXACTLY what was needed for a dress and gave it the love that it deserved.
Alterations Boutique was an utter disappointment, don't go there unless you want to throw money away and be disappointed with the end result.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Lucy M.London, United Kingdom01547 Jan 2014
They saved my dress that was ruined by a cheaper alterations company. Thankfully they did this on short notice. I have learnt the hard lesson to pay a little more for saving time, getting my dress back in a good condition and being in safe hands of an experience tailor. But alas you do pay for good service, which I cannot fault, thank you for all our help and professionalism.... a note for others to follow the same standard.

Very friendly and clean alterations done as quickly as same day if willing to pay 50% more. Accept credit cards as well. Best part is that they are open until 9pm Tues-Friday which makes pick up easier!

My last review "Huge Disappointment - Escalating Charges" was on 30/1/17. I said I would post a followup. In the end the job for which was quoted £80 was completed well at a total cost of £170. When he saw my earlier review the owner Raul called me, appologised profusely and offered me a full refund which I have declined. When I was in the shop another customer came in to collect a leather jacket and he was entirely satisfied with his repair. Raul says his card is on the counter and any customer who has a complaint should contact him. Notwithstanding the offer of a full refund, I still feel I was scammed - but perhaps if I had contacted Raul when the original job was botched I might have had a more satisfactory outcome.

The drape of a jacket needed fixing. A charming lady said it could be done and after much pinning I was told the cost would be £80 with a £50 deposit. When I went to collect the jacket and tried it on there was little change. A different charming lady described as a tailor did a lot more pinning and said a lot more work needed to be done costing about £180 with the original balance of £30 to pay. After much negotiation we ended up with an additional cost of £120 and balance of £30 waived and another £50 deposit paid. If the second attempt goes well - what started with a £80 quote will end up costing £170. Another review will follow when I see the outcome of the second attempt. - Qype User (mishac…)London, United Kingdom4627 Aug 2012
Extremely professional staff. Customer service at a high level. Reacted very promptly to my request to alter the dress I had planned to wear at my sister's wedding. The result was fabulous! Had a great time at the wedding thanks to you Alternations Boutique!

A high profile friend suggested I try this shop. My demands were high as the undertaking was to take charge of all of the outfits for my wedding and with no less than 12 people to fit this required a lot of intricate tailoring, not to mention bead work and I must say, Alterations Boutique carried out this work beyond my expectations and my wedding was an outright success. I would recommend their service to anyone. I would say that some tailoring can require adjustments and a bit of tweaking here and there and this may mean more than one fitting, I couldn't have asked for more.
