Travelling Tailor questions
Which areas does the travelling tailor visit?
Send your suburb with your request and we will confirm availability for your area.
Is there an extra charge?
It depends on your location and booking. We will confirm before your appointment.
Can you fit a whole wedding party at one address?
Ask us. Group appointments at one location are often the easiest option.
Do I still need to visit the showroom?
Not always. We will discuss the best arrangement for your second fitting.
How many fittings will I need?
Usually two. The first (about 45 minutes) covers design, fabric and measurements. The second happens when the garment arrives, and any final adjustments are made in-house, usually within a week.
What if the fit is not right at the second fitting?
We do not hand your garment over until you are happy with the fit. Our in-house tailor makes the adjustments.
Do you keep my measurements?
Yes. Measurements, patterns and alteration notes are kept on file, which makes repeat orders faster and usually removes the need for multiple fittings.
Do you look after clients from Carlton?
Yes. Carlton clients visit our Richmond showroom regularly. Our showroom is on Bridge Road in Richmond. We welcome clients from anywhere in Melbourne and beyond, and once your measurements are on file, reorders are simple wherever you live.
