Two wedding dresses main and second
Omnifix were amazing, I had brought the dresses to them with a short turn around and they fitted me in so well. My main wedding dress was taken in around the chest and they made sure it fitted perfect in all other areas too. My second dress was harder to alter and they took their time looking at different options and explaining them. The cost of the changes was a lot less then I’d been quoted by other tailors and I would highly recommend omnifix to other brides and anyone needing clothes altering. Thank you guys so much for fitting my dresses perfectly!

Flawlessly repaired a vintage silk skirt and silk Isabel Marant dress
Copperfield tailors did a fantastic job repairing two delicate items that I'd almost given up hope on. They were able to invisibly repair where my vintage silk skirt had worn through, by taking silk from the inside of the skirt and create a perfectly blended patch - you can't see it on the photo I've shared or in the flesh. They also rescued my much loved Isabel Marant dress, replacing the elasticated waistband that had totally given up and restoring the fit. Very professional, lovely studio and great customer service. Thank you!

Several items repaired perfectly!
I took City Tailors a silk skirt, Frame jeans and a silk jumpsuit, that all needed repairing. The jeans had a sizeable hole in the knee invisibly repaired, and, in addition to adding some buttons to my skirt and re-stiching a torn strap on my jumpsuit, the tailor pressed and steamed my items for me without me asking. Quick, friendly and professional, at a great price. Thank you!
