Best in the business! Professional, knowledgeable and highly skilled - Alexia and her team are first in class. I recently brought my maid of honor dress to her elegant and stylish studio and was so happy with the service. I could not recommend her more highly. If you value your clothes and high quality service, look no further. I have already recommended her to everyone I know! :) More...

I went to Alexia alterations because I owned a jumpsuit by Johanna Ortiz that I couldn’t work out what to do with; it was too small on the bottom and not even a bridal specialist could make it fit. I was sceptical that anyone could make it work, but a friend recommended Alexia as someone she trusted implicitly.Alexia and her team were realistic and came up with several options, one being a top and skirt, since there was not enough give in the hems to take the trousers out at the hip without adding new seams. Now I have great (and much more wearable) separates that I can wear together or independently, which are tailored to me, whilst retaining the designer’s signature style.I also took a Saloni jumpsuit - it was too difficult for my old tailor. The price was much lower than I had expected for work potentially involving difficult fabric (sequins) and boning; less than £150, including taking the trousers up as well as work on the bodice. Even though I lost weight after the first fitting, Alexia’s wonderful seamstress - Beate - took it in again to make it fit perfectly for no extra charge.Now I take all my clothes to Alexia!Simple jobs are priced the same as my old tailor (hemming etc) and immaculately finished, but where the team really shine is in their creative solutions to challenging problems. Alexia’s seamstresses are so talented - I’m yet to find a problem they can’t solve. They have contacts from working previously for fashion houses and so they know exactly how designers work and where to source the right materials. They also are very knowledgeable about tweaks which can create the most flattering fit; removing pockets from trousers to create a smoother line / adding padding to bikini tops and changing the line of bottoms to make legs look longer. The price is completely fair given the amount of time spent / cost of sourcing correct materials, and the service is flawless. And I keep the little lavender bags that she packs clothes up with and now have beautiful smelling draws! It’s worth adding also that there are several pieces where she has advised that the work would be more expensive than the piece, and although she is happy to do it, it perhaps wasn’t worth my while for something I would wear just once. There’s never been any pressure to use her service. Incredible waiting room too! More...

I could not recommend Alexia and her team more highly. They are professional, extremely skilled and so kind. With only a few weeks before my wedding, Alexia and her team worked wonders on my wedding dress and altered it to perfection. The back of the dress required a lot of work and they would not rest until it fitted like a glove - this could not have been done without their skilled workmanship and keen eye for detail. I trusted the team implicitly and am so grateful for Alexia's kindness throughout the whole process - she was in constant communication, always available and helpful in providing recommendations. You and your clothes are in very safe and competent hands at Alexia Alterations. More...

I cannot recommend Alexia more highly - I took a very precious dress and complicated dress which had belonged to my mother to be altered for one of my daughters - the quality of the workmanship and instinctive understanding of what I hoped to achieve (much better than I did myself) was outstanding.

I have seen Alexia a few times and I would not trust anyone else with my tailoring, she is the best in the business. I have seen her transform jumpsuits into dresses and make bikinis suddenly flattering. I recently saw Alexia to see if any alterations should be made to two bridesmaid dresses that I wore this Summer - she spent a great deal of time with me to discuss different options and in fact advised that I did not get the dresses tailored and instead advised on a different bra I could wear with the dress and other tips and tricks. There is never any pressure to use her service but she is always a joy to work with and gives you endless time. She was instrumental on advising me on the best wedding dress designers for me.

I discovered Alexia through a friend and it's been a gamechanger. Trousers that were the wrong length and languishing in my wardrobe, a vintage dress I bought on a whim that needed reducing by two sizes and many other pieces have rescued by Alexia and her brilliant tailor. Courteous, professional, and delivering fantastic results, all in the timeframe specified. I'm so glad I found her and I've recommended several other friends who have all been very grateful that I did. Jo Elvin, YOU magazine, Mail on Sunday. More...

Alexia and her team are lovely. If you want a garment to fit you perfectly, bring it here. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the seamstresses are expert problem solvers, I trust them implicitly. I fell in love with a Zimmermann dress that I nearly returned as it just didn’t fit well around the top. Alexia’s team made some adjustments, and I wore the dress comfortably and confidently all summer. More...

I had a great experience getting my wedding dress altered (fitted 3 layers with lace outer, shortened and a bustle put in to tie up the train), and I felt like I was in safe hands throughout the experience! Alexia really makes an effort to ensure that everything is done properly and to a high standard. I appreciated the time and attention taken to make sure I was satisfied with the results, and she even took a video for me so I could see how to tie up the train properly on my wedding day. The alterations were not cheap, but still very reasonably priced considering the type of garment and the quality of the work. If you have a precious piece that you want treated with care, this is definitely the place to go! More...

I cannot thank Alexia and her team enough. They created a beautiful gown for me - it was made for my own wedding, but they followed my brief exactly, meaning that I will be wearing my dress for many years to come at black tie events and maybe even one of my own children's weddings! They took incredible care over every detail - including the choice of fabric - i had lots of options to choose from and they guided me in the right direction as i wasn't sure what to choose at first. They fitted the dress to me perfectly and advised on accessories such as shoes, jewellery and even the right bra! The service was over and beyond the norm and far far exceeded my expectations. They were very fast and efficient, puling all this together in a short time period. And they even altered my step - daughter's Alexa Chung trouser suit too - at a moments notice. I loved the calm tranquillity of their fitting rooms - I loved going there and taking a few minutes out of my busy life to focus on my dress as well as have a lovely chat with such a professional team. Thank you Alexia, I will definitely back for more clothes - both alterations and 'start from scratch' jobs. You are the best! More...

INCREDIBLE! I cannot speak highly enough of Alexia, her incredibly talented seamstresses that worked on my dress and of the beautiful place itself. I had been recommended Alexia’s Alterations after searching high and low for someone who would have the expertise to work on my wedding dress, which was made of a delicately embellished tulle. Alexia was extremely flexible at fitting me in at such short notice, and at times that would suit my schedule as I had to travel to London, with only 5 weeks to the wedding. I was made to feel completely at ease by Alexia during and in between our appointments, and the atelier itself is so luxurious and beautiful! The seamstress went through every part of the process with me during the 3 appointments, and her level of expertise and clear passion for her work was evident. The end result was EXQUISITE. Completely breathtaking. To see my wedding dress finally fit my body exactly how it should - I felt beautiful! I cannot thank these women enough that worked so hard to create my dream dress. More...

Hands down the best alterations place in London and I wish I'd been aware of them sooner. I was greeted with a glass of champagne and had a 2-hour appointment to myself - with both Alexia and her seamstress, rather than sharing a mini-space with other customers, which seems customary everywhere else. Alexia had pre-assigned a dedicated seamstress to me, based on the nature of my alterations, which were quite specific and which she listened to patiently. Not only did the seamstress have decades of experience working for a top fashion designer, hence was more knowledgeable than any tailor I've ever come across, she was also a wonderful person and gave me tips on how to work out at the gym and what to do less of in order for my wedding dress to compliment my figure best. I can't recommend them highly enough. More...
