There are many in Green st and Ilford....the ones in Ilford are a bit pricey but their stitching is really good specially Seasons

Hi

I am just about to open a thread about my NEW tailor... I was using one regularly and as he has become more popular his prices have rocketed!!

This guy works from home but does a REALLY good job, im in south east london (croydon area)...

I cant send PM's but am getting pics together on some of his work, i have a pic of a anarkali kalia vala dress he made me and can email these to you...

His charges are:

£13 for shalvar kameez (no zip/piping)
£18 for shalvar kammez (with Zip/piping)
£18 for shalvar kameez with lining (no zip/piping)
£23 for shalvar kameez with lining (with zip/piping)
Dress - £27 (with lining/zip/piping)

For suits with capri/trousers extra £5

He honestly does a really good job, im not getting any commision on this :) just sharing my experience as I know finding a reasonable tailor in london is not the easiest of tasks!!

Re: UK Tailor/dressmaker needed asap!

I know a Lady aunty type lives alone in Stockwell orignally from pakistan have heard a lot about her from family in London She is very very cheep aswell as a very fine Taylor worked for She magz and stuff when in Pakistan if you want her number PM me and I will send it ..

Many thanks for that Fudge, have sent u an email :) I have already given my material to sum1 in tooting but will bear in mind for next time as Tooting is a bit inconvinient.

Re: UK Tailor/dressmaker needed asap!

hey nsalam

can you please pm me details of the tailor in tooting?
and is his stitching good ?

Other than that, RANDOM question, do you guys know if all the stores on green street is open on Sunday's ?

Re: UK Tailor/dressmaker needed asap!

hi reality check all shops r open in green street on sundays.

Guys anyone looking to get a suit made in Tooting do not get it made in a shop called Fusion, i just got my suit back and the guy did a total hackjob of it. I am so gutted i cnt attend the mehndi i got it made for, the shape and stitiching is completely wrong, and what makes it worse is that the guy cannot speak english!!!!

I think i will try the tailor recommended by Fudge. There is a tailor in Prachy in Tooting who is apparently really good, but he charges a lot, i think his minimum is 22 pounds for a simple suit.

Will let u know how the person in recommended by fudge is.

Re: UK Tailor/dressmaker needed asap!

Hey thanks for the reply !

I actually just need a tailor, for my clothes alteration, so i really do not need someone to be stitching clothes from scratch, that is why i was asking if you knew any good one that is around tooting, or if anyone else know a good tailor, around or near that area.

Im sad to hear about your clothes disaster, what did he do wrong ?

Re: UK Tailor/dressmaker needed asap!

hey nsalaam,

how did everything turn out with the tailors ?
