Corset Repair and Alterations

Alexander Tailoring is a specialist in corset repairs and alterations. If you need to get your corset re-sized and or repaired, we can pretty much handle any type of tears, rips, and custom fitting for your corset. The reason you may need to alter your corset is because the top or bottom of the corset might be too small or too big so you may need to add gores to make it fit your unique profile. As we all know, we are not all the same size and a corset alteration is supposed to make it a snug fit.

This type of alteration to corsets is a very common approach or modification for an existing corset or one that has been passed on to a new owner of the corset. By having Alexander Tailoring modify and repair your corset, you can save a lot of money in the long run because custom fitted new corsets can be very expensive. Please call us today if you have a corset repair, corset alteration, or have questions about resizing a specific corset you have in mind.
