WHY GURU?
the best possible review, outstanding sewing

Clothing Alterations

Clothes don't always fit properly. Old clothes become too snug, or brand new ones need adjustment before they are worn. The good news is that we can alter both new and old clothes to a tailored fit. Jeans, shirts, suits, dresses, jackets, any type of clothing can be altered.

Made to Measure

Made to measure clothes lift the ante for both tailor and customer alike. Our made to measure service is for men and women who want or need unique custom made clothing, or have specific fitting requirements.

What We Do


 

We can resize your clothing. Talk to us if your garments no longer fit and need alteration. We can also add new life to your clothes.

Alteration Guru also alter wedding dresses. If you bought a wedding dress online and were disappointed with the fit, we can re-tailor it.

There are many ways to alter clothes or revive a garment. Shortening sleeves, or a skirt, is a good place to start. You can add pocket for a cellphone, or taper jeans. You can even turn pants into shorts. We will work with you to make your ideas a reality.

We can also alter clothing for seniors, or anyone in aged care, with ease of dressing in mind.

Consider having your clothes repaired instead of discarding old favourites. Common repairs include: zips, patches, domes, linings and hems.

We are not limited to clothes and can repair a wide range of soft goods.

Our approach is the same whether you need clothes for a special occasion, or simple everyday wear. Each made to measure garment is personalized and constructed with an emphasis on quality, at an affordable price.

  • Sari blouses, hand-made men's ties, and classic suit vests for weddings are our specialities.

We make-to-order a range of popular clothes, accessories and gifts, in standard sizes, from a seasonal selection of fabrics.

If you want a handmade limited edition, at a smaller cost than our made-to-measure service, have a look at our clothing and gift catalogue.

We are of course, happy to make the same item using colours of your choice if we can source the fabrics.

Saris require perfectly fitted blouses. Alteration Guru will design and craft you an exquisitely formed sari blouse, tailored to your exact body shape.

You don't have to go far for elegance. Whether you want a blouse that is traditional, or one that is outrageously Bollywood, Alteration Guru tailor them right here in Dunedin.
