Tucked away down a side street its the kind of place that you only find on recommendation - unless…read moreyou are local. For me its the only place to get an outfit for an occasion - without travelling into the city centre. Only a small shop, but its kind of like the tardis - I am never ceased to be amazed how much stuff is in there. Weirdly it never feels cramped though. I say they are good for occasionwear for two reasons; 1/ The service is amazing. The small team of staff really give you one to one attention and honest helpful advice and they 'listen' rather than just trying to sell. They will also order you extra sizes or suggest good alternatives without being pushy. 2/ The prices - for me anyway - are a little high for everyday wear. Besides women's clothing they also stock shoes and accessories - they have some beautiful handbags and some lovely little nick-nacks. Right at the back is a smaller room patritioned off that caters for evening and prom dresses only. This is the place to come if you want something a bit special or unusual - they stock local designers and hand made one-offs as well as the more well known brands. Also they do offer a very reasonable alteration service should you need it. Why only 4 stars? I find the sizes do come a little on the small side - so to avoid a strop possibly try one size higher than you normally would.

not very easy to find, unless local. a lot of locals probably dont know where it is either…read more a small shop, so you get a very personalised service when you go in, although if you are a fuller figured lady, it might not be worth going in as a lot of their stock is aimed at slimmer ladies, although you're never too big for shoes and accessories.

These wonderful ladies run the best tailors shop in the West Midlands. If you are looking for an…read moreexcellent tailor/seamstress, it's well worth the trip if you're in Birmingham. I'll lay you a wager that you can't find a service as impeccable with prices as reasonable as Zip & Tuck. We first came across them when my 6'5" tall, lanky husband (sorry baby!) bought a namebrand suit on the cheap, and needed it altered to fit his svelte frame. There was a complex bit of stitching at the back, so I wasn't able to use my trusty thimble on it with aplomb. We brought it into Zip & Tuck, and hey presto! 3 days later and £15 later, they'd not only taken in the back seamlessly (ha!), they'd lengthened the arms and trousers. He tried it on, and it looked like it had been individually tailored. Our second experience was with the fine ladies (who are trained in Costume Design and Fine Tailoring) saving our wedding day. And this is all true. I had bought a couture wedding dress from an American designer. It was made to fit my figure perfectly, snug, but not too snug -- just right. I hadn't tried the dress on in about a month, since my last fitting, when, a few days before the wedding, I tried it on to show some friends. The dress was huge at the waist, and the consequent gapping there was causing the thin straps to pull down against my shoulder blades, rubbing them raw and creating angry looking red skin (non tres sexy). I had, apparently, lost some weight in the run up to the wedding, making my fits-like-a-glove dress into a bride's nightmare. In a blind panic I wailed at my then-fiance to help, sew it with his teeth if necessary. He rushed the dress over to Zip & Tuck with literally a day and a half to spare. We brought the dress in at noon, and by 5pm, with a rush job done perfectly, the dress was done. They had even altered the straps slightly, which I hadn't asked them to do, and helped the dress fit even better. End result was a happy bride, and thus, a happy groom (shrieking bride = deaf groom). If you've been putting off an alteration or button catastrophe, stop by Zip & Tuck. The competent job will make you feel like a gazillion bucks.

Aimed more at teenagers and young girls - this is an ideal store for gift buying. The stock…read moreencompasses jewellery, bags, purses, hair accessories, hosiery, cosmetics and more. Prices start from about 99p. I find this place is a bit much personally, too much stuff crammed into such a small place. I start looking and give up after 5 mins because I just get overwhelmed. It is not helped in this branch specifically as its soooo tiny, you cannot move in here on a saturday its mental. Service is a bit O.T.T for me, they are straight on you as you walk in instead of waiting for buying signals. I have to admit that they do know their stock in general and are helpful if you want something specific. I think the only time I would use this to buy for myself was if I was going to a fancy dress do or a hen night and wanted some extra wacky accessories. Maybe its me, maybe I am getting old - but tiara's and feather boas on an everyday basis not really gonna happen. As 'Fallen Angel' mentioned they also do a piercing service (I have not used so cannot comment much), most of the staff seem to have lots of piercings so I can only take this as a sign that they know hat they are doing!!
