Restyle Clothes – Remaking That Gives a Garment New Life
Have a garment you love that no longer fits or feels dated? We restyle and remake clothes – reshaping the cut, remodelling the piece or repurposing it, so it becomes something you'll wear again. Order online, we pick up at home or work, remake it, and send the garment back to you.
What remaking means
Remaking is more than taking up a hem or taking in a seam – it's reshaping the garment itself. We can modernise a dated cut, change the shape, combine several changes into one restyle, or adapt an heirloom so it suits the person who'll wear it. We always work carefully from the garment you have and the fabric it's made from.
Favourites and heirlooms
Some garments are worth keeping – a well-loved favourite, a dress from a special occasion or an heirloom with a story. Instead of buying new, we can remake the piece so it fits and feels right today. What's possible depends on the garment's fabric and cut, so tell us what you have in mind when you order.
Describe what you want
No two remakes are quite alike, so the more you tell us, the better. Describe the garment, what you'd like changed and how you want it to sit, and add measurements where you can. If it's really a single change you need – hemming, taking in, a waist change or shortening sleeves – you'll find dedicated pages for those adjustments under alterations & tailoring.
How to order
Choose the service and briefly tell us about the garment and what you'd like changed when you order online. We pick the garment up at home or work, or you drop it at a service point or partner store – you choose the shipping method in your order. Once the garment is remade, we send it back to you.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to remake a garment?+
The price depends on the garment and how extensive the remake is. Because every job is different, you see the price before you order – see the full price list on our prices page.
Can you modernise an old garment?+
Often, yes. We can change the cut, reshape the piece or adapt it so it feels more current. What can be done depends on the garment's fabric and cut – describe what you'd like, ideally with measurements, and we'll see what's possible.
Can you remake an heirloom?+
Yes, we handle heirlooms and well-loved favourites with care. We work gently from the garment you have and adapt it so it suits the person who'll wear it. Do tell us a little about the piece when you order.
How much can a garment be changed?+
It depends on the garment's fabric, cut and seam allowance. Some pieces leave plenty of room, others less. Describe what you'd like and add measurements, and we'll give you an honest assessment of what's possible before we start.
What if I only need a simple change?+
Then we have dedicated pages for the most common adjustments – hemming, taking in, waist changes and shortening sleeves. Remaking suits best when you want to reshape a garment or combine several changes. See alterations & tailoring for the overview.
