What the alterations & tailoring guide covers
Most garments can be taken in, shortened, or reshaped to fit, and good tailoring is the difference between off-the-rack and looking made-to-measure. Hems, waists, sleeves, and tapering are routine. Letting a garment out is limited by the seam allowance inside. Bring your real shoes and wear the right layers to the fitting so the result matches how you will actually wear it.
