A great fit starts at the waist. Our fixers tailor shorts by taking the waist in to create a cleaner, more flattering silhouette. Adjustments are made with care to preserve the original structure and balance of the garment, so your shorts still feel like themselves, just better fitting.
We can typically take the waist in by up to two sizes, or about three inches, depending on construction and seam allowance.
Our standard waist alteration delivers precise tailoring to refine the fit of your shorts while maintaining their original look and feel.
Our premium waist alteration is handled by our most experienced fixers with additional care and craftsmanship. Recommended for designer, vintage, or sentimental shorts, and required for leather, silk, suede, or embellished garments where expert handling is essential.
