For custom made bridal gowns and gowns bought ready-made, Myline’s offers expert wedding dress alterations to ensure it’s perfect in time for the big day. Our professional seamstress can alter even the smallest detail, for an ideal fit. Usually, this step is taken care of during the several fittings for a custom made gown, so the typical time to take advantage of our alteration service is with our ready-made gowns. Our wide range of ready-made gowns come in a variety of sizes, lengths and styles. So if you see a style you love, but can tell it isn’t your size, don’t despair. We can work with your body shape and size to tailor most of our gown to fit you.
Our expert alterations don’t stop there. We understand that finding the perfect fit for formal wear can be a challenge for everyone, so we offer our clothing alterations service for any formal wear, including dresses for the mother-of-the-bride, bride’s maids, as well as alterations for men’s suits, and all men’s wear.
