Do I Need Tailoring Or Alteration Services?

Have you ever made use of a clothing alteration service? It is very convenient as it saves time, is environmentally conscious, and ensures your family can wear their clothes for many years. With kids, of course, that means until they grow out of the current sets. 

Many people are unsure whether they need tailoring or alteration services. But what is the difference?  

Tailoring Vs Alterations

According to Jaxson Maximus, a renowned luxury lifestyle brand based in Miami, the difference between tailoring and alterations are as follows: 

Tailoring. Tailoring is the design and making of a piece of clothing specially fitted to an individual’s body, as is often done with bespoke suits.        

Alterations. Garments are changed in ways that make the wearer feel more comfortable. It is done with clothing that already exists.     

Which One Do I Need?

Are you wondering which one you need? Generally, people need clothing alteration services as the zipper of their favorite jeans went, or the seam on one of the kid’s school uniform pants is loose. Other reasons you might need this service are:

  • Shortening or lengthening of sleeves

  • Adding or changing shoulder pads on a jacket

  • Replacing buttons, snaps, or hooks & eyes

  • Repairing a seam or tear in kids’ sports uniforms.
