Our top tip:
Get to know your tailor (we hope that’s us!).
A skilled alterations specialist is a treasure trove of knowledge about clothing and style. They can advise you on everything from fabric selection and seam finishes to the best type of thread for your garment. The more you work with your tailor, the more you develop your personal style and the better the results.
We want our clients to be the best-dressed people in the room, always. Our philosophy is rooted in the principles of high-end fashion: your clothing should drape beautifully and fit your body perfectly. Fabric choice and cut are the foundation of great style.

About me
My name is Alma, and sewing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by talented seamstresses – my mum, grandma, and aunties – who taught me to sew before I even learned to read.
I trained in both traditional and modern techniques while working in my mother’s Atelier, and later studied Engineering in Milan. But my heart was always with tailoring, and I returned to it the moment I could.
My mission is to bring luxury Italian tailoring to the UK, using the precision and artistry I learned in Milan to help people look and feel their best. I see every day how perfectly fitted clothing transforms confidence and charisma – it’s more than just fabric; it’s how you carry yourself.
Now based in Brighton, I specialise in wedding dress alterations, suit tailoring, and bespoke projects that elevate your unique style.
