When a skirt fits everywhere except the waist, we can help. Our fixers adjust skirts by letting the waist out, carefully adding fabric at the back waistband or side seams to create more room while maintaining balance and structure.
We can typically let the waist out by up to two sizes, or about three inches, depending on construction. Clients must supply the fabric for this service. We recommend choosing a fabric that complements the original garment, whether closely matched or intentionally contrasting.
Our standard waist-out alteration includes precise tailoring and thoughtful integration of added fabric to improve comfort and wearability while preserving the skirt’s original design.
Our premium service is handled by our most experienced fixers with additional time and craftsmanship. Recommended for designer, vintage, or sentimental skirts, and required for leather, suede, or embellished garments where expert handling is essential.
