AltEm Stitches alters your tops, shirts, and jackets to give you the option of wearing them with confidence, fashion flair, and individual style.

We adjust tight jacket sleeve by loosening them at the wrist or take in if they are too baggy. AltEm Stitches alters shirt or jacket sleeves to avoid a blousy or baggy look. AltEm Stitches can also adjust jackets by taking in shoulder epaulettes or altering armholes.

AltEm Stitches can adjust jackets to suit your preferences. Fashion aside, men’s business jackets should be long enough to cover their behind. For men, a half-inch of your shirt should be exposed when your hands are at rest by your sides.

AltEm Stitches can take the body of jackets and tops or let them out when there are available seams. We can take in jackets at the waist to give men the sought-after male V-shape.

For a slimmer look AltEm Stitches can bring in your shirts or tops. If you plan to wear these untucked, we can alter the shirt or insert pleats to give women the much-desired hourglass shape.

The collar of your shirt can be replaced, although you may need to accept a contrast or different colour. AltEm Stitches can also remove and recut a collar that is overly large or gapping.

AltEm Stitches can add embellishments such as monogramming, braid, lace or new buttons to your tops or jackets.

My sport is skydiving and when I needed repairs done to my jumpsuit Cynthia at AltEm didn't hesitate to help me out. She was great to work with, very helpful, flexible with her time and ideas and really fun to chat with. Whatever you need done she'll deliver to the best quality. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

Cynthia did a fabulous job on some tricky alterations. She sets the right expectations regarding timeframes and even completed my last alterations 2 days early! Cynthia sends a notification to let you know that you can collect which is really convenient and offers very good value. Highly recommend!

Cynthia was an absolute lifesaver. We had a zip on a skirt become damaged the night before the opening of a show and Cynthia was kind enough to take on the emergency job. She said that she would get the skirt back to me the next morning but ended up finishing it within a couple of hours the same day I dropped it off. I could not recommend her more and am so so thankful for kindness and professionalism!

I had 3 dresses that just weren’t sitting right on me and I wasn’t wearing. Cynthia did a beautiful job altering them so I could give them the nights out they deserved! She is a skilled sewer and carefully unpicked the neckline and shortened the bodice for me. She also loves dogs and didn’t mind me bringing my new pup into the shop in her crate. Can recommend, will be returning to get some more items altered soon. Try to allow her some time to do what she does best, as she is a busy woman.

Cynthia went out of her way to fit me in, an absolute gem. She did an amazing job to make a fancy dress costume come alive. Great quality and reasonable costing. I will be back!
