Dressmaker - alterations

m*pp*t · 2017-05-18 15:17:18

Can anyone recommend a dress maker/tailor around Cork? It's just to alter the neckline on a dress. I know the Zip Yard in Douglas is an opt-in but just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere particularly good. (Also, if you'd any idea of a ball park figure for what these things tend to cost?) Thanks for any help.

There's a great lady in Ballincollig, I think the place is called Alterations by Kate. She altered my wedding dress last year and the year before that she added in a zipper into the back of a lace dress, both came out perfect. Very reasonable as well.
