FORMAL DRESS ALTERATIONS

Expert Special Occasion Alterations in Tauranga

At Shining Style, I bring over two decades of experience to professional alterations for special occasion attire, including bridesmaids’ dresses, ball gowns, evening wear and reception dresses. I take great care in handling intricate fabrics like sequins, beads, and velvet, ensuring your garments are perfectly adjusted to your style and fit. Whether you need bridesmaids’ dress tailoring or ball gown alterations, I’m dedicated to helping you look your best for any event.

For fittings, please bring your shoes and the proper underwear, including any body shapers or specific bras, if you plan on wearing them. It is a good idea to apply a stick-on bra at home to be ready for the fitting.

Your dress will be professionally steam-pressed before it is handed over to you. Please bring your own bag and hanger to take it home crease free.

Even if no alterations are required, I also offer an affordable steam-pressing service. Many ball gowns are made from delicate fabrics such as sequins, lace, tulle, and satin, and simply steam-pressing them can transform them into a beautifully finished piece.
