History Report

Established in 1983, Alterations Boutique Manchester was founded as a specialty tailoring company providing high-end Garment Alterations, Tailoring and Bespoke Couture Services. Our Boutique was one of the first companies in the UK to apply a revolutionary and innovative approach to garment alterations and tailoring.

Find Us Report

Based in Unit 14 of the Royal Exchange Arcade our retail premises are situated in the heart of Manchester City Centre, within easy walking distance of the Town Hall, Market Street and Metrolink stops. The nearest Metrolink tram stops are Market Street, St Peter's Square and now Exchange Square on completion of the Second City Crossing, all of which are no more than ten minutes walk away.

How We Work Report

We will work on your garment for as long as it is required to achieve the perfect fit. It is important that you understand that sometimes, for bridal and complex alterations, in particular, more than one fitting will be required to achieve the perfect result as the margin for an unwanted crease is sometimes just a millimeter.

As a student, AB is expensive. But it was worth every penny spent.
I found an amazing Soviet military greatcoat that fit extremely well apart from my sleeves and the length. So I looked for a tailor. The stakes were high - a vintage soviet wool coat dating from the 1980s in an amazing condition. I didn't want to destroy such an amazing piece with a bad tailor job, so I went for AB.
Elena is an amazing tailor and truly an expert. She advised me the proper length on a greatcoat, and I asked if it should be shorter. She suggested not to change the length, so I trusted her expertise. Best decision

With a very limited time and on the recommendation of my friend, I contacted this Alterations Boutique Manchester. I got my new ski pants altered within just 2 hours. The price was very genuine and I will definitely return with more alternation jobs in the future.

AB are great tailors. They altered 5 suits for me and each suit was altered to perfection. The tailor explained everything very well during the fitting and made sure I was happy with his pinning. Great result.

One of my favourite places for alterations in London. I found this place online when I was looking for a seamstress to work on my wedding dress and I have been using AB ever since. I’ve never been disappointed with their work. Always warm and friendly service.

Friendly service and quick turnaround. My Coat needed a new lining so I came here after searching around on the internet. They showed me a selection of linings and after a week my coat was ready to collect.

I had no idea that you could get suits altered to such a high standard. People genuinely believe my suits have been Tailor made. Brilliant.

I purchased my Wedding Dress online but unfortunately it did not fit so I needed a Tailor to alter it. I came here based on the great reviews I saw online and Alterations Boutique lived up to their great reputation. The service and people here are simply wonderful. They really made me feel special throughout the whole process and the work was excellent. Full marks.

My new Armani suit needed to be altered. I bought it in Selfridges and took it straight to Alterations Boutique. The tailor pinned my suit and made a couple of great suggestions. I was very happy when I tried the suit on a week later as it fit me just right. Great job.

Very professional and efficient tailors. They really care about their customers and provide great customer service. Also, they are brilliant tailors. They resized 3 dresses for me and each of them was done to perfection. I highly recommend them.

I purchased a beautiful coat however it didn’t fit me correctly. The sleeves were too long and it was too bulky on the waist. I took it to AB and they pinned my coat for me. They tailored it beautifully and it fit me very well when I came to collect it. Fantastic!

Their service was just AMAZING! They understood exactly what I was dreaming about and guided me to choose the perfect details of the dress. Even they made it 100% MY dream wedding dress! If you're also not a "fashion victim" like I am in all the fashion things, don't worry as they will do all the hard work for you to give the incredible results. Compliments for your dressing style will be 100% guaranteed!

I’ve had 4 pairs of my jeans got repaired here, including a wedding dress. Every time they did a fantastic job. The quality of their alteration work is superb and it never took more than a few days. Top recommended!

I had my wedding gown tailored by Alterations Boutique for my elopement in December and I have just worn it again for our big party this weekend. My husband's aunt who is a seamstress commented that it must have been made to measure for me. Considering my dress was a completely silk sample 4 sizes too large for me in a very unforgiving simple style this was the best possible compliment. The service was also super friendly and they even crammed in a same day last minute alteration 3 days before we eloped as my weight had changed. I could not recommend them more.

One of the best alterations places in London I’ve been to at an affordable price. The staff is really lovely and friendly and they always made me feel welcome. They have shortened a lot of items for me as I am quite short and the finish has always been beautiful

I was very happy with their service and quality of work. I bought my wedding dress online and it was too small when it arrived just 6 weeks before my wedding. I brought it to Alterations Boutique and they were able to alter it 1 week before my wedding. The fit of the dress was absolutely perfect. Thank you AB!
