The Art of Invisible Mending

Selected LOOKSMART stores provide Invisible Mending in Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Cairns, Melbourne, Perth, Wellington, Hamilton, Christchurch and Auckland. Fix tears, holes and burns on your favorite garments with our Invisible Mending service.

Individual threads are taken from the unseen interior fabric of the garment and one by one are rewoven to fix the damaged areas. The pattern, colour and weave will be meticulously matched to appear the same as the original and the repair will last for the lifetime of the garment. The invisibility of the garment repair will depend on the type of material the garment is made of. Great results come from dark colours and soft wool. Light colours, stiff, synthetic and fine fabrics are not ideal.

The minimum turnaround time is 3 weeks – Mending for 5mm diameter starts from $100, depending on the difficulty of the repair.

Invisibility will be between 70% – 95%, confirmation of percentage will be given along with quote.

Zip Repair for Your Favourite Garments

Did you just go to put on your favourite, go-to dress only to discover that it has a broken zip and cannot be worn? Nothing can be more frustrating, but fear not, the chances are it can be repaired, and your dress can be worn and look just as good once again.

At LOOKSMART Alterations, we offer dress zipper repair, allowing you to wear your favourite dress once more and be the belle of the ball.

Why Fix and Not Replace?

Finding the perfect dress can take time. You may have already found the perfect dress that suits your shape and is in the right colour and fabric. Why throw it out when it can be repaired?

Not only this but when you have invested a lot of money in your perfect dress, you do not just want to get rid of it if it suffers a minor misfortune. At LOOKSMART Alterations, we can fix the zipper on your dress, allowing you to wear it and feel fantastic.

If you have tried on your dress a few days before a big event and discovered a zipper that is stuck or broken, you are probably panicking about what to do. You do not have time to go shopping and spend hours trying on multiple dresses that you know are never going to look as good as the one you have with a broken zip. Luckily, at LOOKSMART Alterations, we offer a quick turnaround time, so you can bring in your dress for repair and have it back swiftly, ready for that special occasion where you want to look your best.

Zippers are found on many garments and they are usually trusty and do their job well. However, they do sometimes go wrong and therefore a repair might be necessary.

As tempting as it might be to try and fix your own zipper, it is often best to leave it to the experts. Zippers can be tricky and fiddly and, when they are not repaired properly, are likely to go wrong again or just not even zip up in the first place. LOOKSMART Alterations use experienced staff to replace or repair your zipper, allowing it to smoothly slide up and down once again, letting you step in and out of your favourite dress with ease.
