Can't recommend Sam highly enough. He did a beautiful job on the two shirts I brought in for what turned out to be fairly unusual alterations (required removal of about 8cm of material in the upper back, as well as darting)- I'm pretty picky with the fit of my clothes and they are absolutely perfect. I won't trust my clothes with anyone else going forward. A truly exceptional business in terms of expertise, professionalism and customer service- my sincere thanks to both Sam and Gracie. I'll definitely be back soon.

I had Sam alter a 25 year old ball gown, that was quite elaborate and boned in the bodice, and the quality of alteration was second to none. The update and matching of the fabric was faultless and no one could tell it had been touched. Excellent work. Amazing attention to detail.

Sam did a great job doing alterations to my wedding suit - he added a breast pocket (which was a pretty substantial job, requiring pulling apart much of the main suit construction), then shortened the sleeves, hemmed the trousers and brought in the seat.

It all happened in good time, and when I needed a lapel buttonhole added and replacement of all the buttons for nicer ones, he chucked it in for free.

Highly recommended - haven't found a better tailor in the cbd.

Highly recommend to use Sam's Alteration who needs their old suit altered (tapering trousers + jacket alteration). He did a perfect job on mine :) Better to be sure with someone with the experience and knowledge and plus he was very friendly on my first visit.

Sam and Gracie are professional, timely and of course the loveliest people. Thank you for the excellent communication and service, the alterations on my dress were perfect.

Beyond my expectations all the time! I've always been so satisfied with Sam's work and I don't usually write reviews but this time I had to. I had a wedding to attend as a bridesmaid last Saturday and the bridesmaid dress was given to me on Tuesday which was roughly 3-4 days prior to the wedding and the size was too big for me. So I ran into Sam's alteration for his magic hands to help me out and guess what. The dress was ready to pick up on Friday early afternoon and the fit was just so beautiful which made other bridesmaids jealous on the wedding day! Not only the alteration works but Sam and Gracie's smile will make you to become a regular customer. Dana :)

I bring my clothes all the way from Tasmania for Sam to fix. He just fixed my husband's wedding suit pants which other tailors said were unfixable - now they look brand new! My husband is so happy. It is his favourite suit. I bought a tailor made suit off the internet. It did not fit me at all!! Sam fixed it up and now it is a top class suit that fits me perfectly. Thank you so much Sam. You are a world class tailor and the best I have ever dealt with. Vanessa Bleyer

Sam's manner is helpful & very professional backed up by excellent work. Delighted with the results which transformed my winter coat. Well worth the journey from Balwyn to the City to have this work done. Cost very reasonable. Thank you.

With a two week deadline before an event, Sam managed to get all my alterations done within just a week! Will definitely be back for future alterations.
