    Brilliant, innovative service

    I came to Sue towards the end of last year as I was due to perform in a Christmas, pantomime style production as Queen Elsa. I had ordered a dress online, which turned out to be terrible quality when it arrived. Sue gave the dress an overhaul, completely replacing the bottom half and attaching some better quality fur around the collar, all in a very short space of time and I was delighted with the results. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

    Perfect Dress!

    Thank you Sue for making my dress absolutely perfect! There was so much to alter to make it fit perfectly and you did an amazing job. You were so flexible and knew exactly what I wanted, it was really great working with you and I appreciate all the effort and time you put in to make my dress extra special. Thank you again, would definately recommend!

    Excellent Service Every Time

    Sue has made and altered special occasion / expensive clothes for me during the last two years. She has an impeccable eye for detail and excellent tailoring and dressmaking skills. A bonus is that she's always a pleasure to deal with too!

    Could not recommend more

    Sue is a master of her craft. She has transformed my wedding gown into a bespoke piece that I can’t wait to show off! Sue went over and above to turn my vision into a reality. She is a warm-hearted, kind lady who is customer centred and takes a genuine interest in you. Impeccable service with precision finishes which reflect Sue’s passion for fabrics and dress making.

    Thank you beautiful lady for your very kind words. I wish you the very best on your wedding day 💐 and looking forward to seeing the pictures of you in your exquisite unique gown 💗

    Absolutely fantastic!!!!!

    Well, what can I say about Sue Gamesby?? There’s not enough stars to rate her! She can literally do anything you ask, practically remade my daughters wedding dress and the viel, I have never seen such professionalism and exquisite craftsmanship, not only is she extremely talented, she is a gorgeous, kind,patient lady.
    We made a new friend when we met Sue, we’re actually going to miss our visits to her unit ☹️.
    I cannot praise her enough, she’ll make your Big Day extra special,100% recommend ♥️

    A professional and perfect service with a personal touch

    A wonderful lady who goes above and beyond to make sure you feel amazing on your wedding day - and in my case she did exactly that ! I was lucky enough to have Sue alter my wedding dress and she even came to our wedding venue on the morning of my wedding to dress me - which was a huge relief for me as the back of my dress had a corset fastening, which I really wanted doing properly. Sue was always so kind and positive during our fittings and made me feel so beautiful in my dress. On my wedding day she made me feel amazing and I'm so grateful to her for that. I recommend Sue to all brides to be - she offers a service which is personable, friendly and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again for any dress or outfit alterations.

    Sue Gamesby - Alterations's reply:

    Thank you lovely lady 😘 I so love what I do. Your wedding day is probably one of the most important day of your life, so why shouldn't you feel beautiful. When you feel good about yourself it shines through. My belief is the clothes you wear can reflect on how you feel, so yes you should feel good in your amazing gown on your big day x
