Professional VIP Alteration & Tailoring
We collaborate with stylists and press offices in London to add the last touch to their VIP clients’ outfits for red carpet appearances. D&A services provide alterations and tailoring for high profile events such as Baftas, film premieres, fashion shows, awards and VIP summer parties in the capital.
Appointments: We work by appointment, where you will be looked after by one of our fitting consultants. We will discuss the alterations required to best fit your garment. At the end of the fitting, we provide a cost estimate so you can decide whether to proceed with the alterations. We can suggest various solutions to alter your garment, some of which may help save on costs.
Please remember to bring your shoes to your appointment to ensure we get the best possible fit.
Charges: To provide a realistic price estimate, we need to see your garment, understand its construction, and know how it fits you. Alteration costs may vary, particularly for complex, constructed dresses and heavily detailed designer wear. We charge £80 per hour for alterations and fitting appointments.
If this is your first time using us, you will receive 30 minutes of free fitting time to introduce you to our outstanding tailoring quality.

What our clients say
Designer Alterations
Established for over 30 years, we are London’s leading tailoring and alteration services. D&A offers a high-quality alteration service that maintains the finish, style, and proportion to ensure designer garments look, feel and fit ‘designer.’ Of course, we keep the integrity of the original!
Why are designer clothes more expensive than non-designer clothes? Sometimes it may be hard to comprehend. But, apart from paying for the brand name, there often is a difference in quality, detail and finish; beautiful not only from the outside but also from the inside. Stylists and leading fashion houses trust us with their clients’ designer garments.
D&A fitting studio and workroom is based in Battersea. Our team of skilled and experienced tailors, seamstresses and consultants look after private clients passionate about clothes in our studio and at home and hotels in central London.
We work with luxury fashion brands such as Gucci, the Row, Acne Studio, amongst many others. We alter clothes for Doverstreet Market London.
