ALTERATIONS

The Styleroom Alteration workshop was created over thirty years ago in the original ‘American Tailors’ tailoring room, at the top end of Bourke Street Melbourne.

The workshop was an in-house service for anyone who purchased a suit or piece of formal clothing, fine-tuning the fit of the garment to make it perfect.

The workroom including all the machinery and staff have been moved to the Styleroom.

The expertise and exceptional reputation of the new Styleroom tailoring team specialises across formal suiting, dressmaking advanced alterations, repairs and the restyling and shaping of older garments.
