Not really my field of expertise but there is a tailor/dressmaker on Turnpike Lane , on the left hand side heading away from the station.

I've used the Lndn Boutique opposite Homebase for various alterations and I am happy to recommend them.  Good quality of work and service, will definitely use them again.

Her name is Maria. And her number is 07809 669056.

She is amazing! She does all sorts of alterations. And she doesn't charge you highstreet prices..

For trousers/suits the lady in Zephyr's is a Saint, reconstructing alterations in my vintage Australian tailored trousers, i.e. nicked them from me Dad.

Zephyr was a Mertotex recommendation, who are good for ties and suit material, but for a dress the other recommendation sounds a good one, especially if it's more their everyday.

I used an incredible lady called Luda. She is a dedicated wedding dress tailor. She is based in Stratford but can travel to you. http://www.bridaldressalterations.com
