I was telling a friend about my Karen Millen jacket which I needed to resize. Realising that it was a hard job, she sent me to Sam. I picked up the jacket yesterday and was blown away by the amazing work that Sam had done - it wasn't an easy job and it looks like new! I cannot recommend Sam highly enough - he is an expert tailor and all round great guy!

I've had Sam alter numerous suits and shirts and have always been very pleased with his reliable service, professionalism and price. Most recently I engaged his services to alter a 'tailor made' suit requiring numerous alterations and he was very helpful and generous with his time and advice. I can recommend him with confidence.

I was really impressed with Sam's knowledge, experience and friendliness. He's altered a few of my jackets now - and I've been really happy with his advice, attention to detail and ease to deal with. My clothes look great. It's not easy to find a good tailor - and I highly recommend him.
