The catch of this place is that you drop of your item for altering and come back later (always the same day). They do it all, from wedding dresses to soft furnishings; even little things like sleeves and collars. A lot of these skills I feel have probably been lost over time but it's a new world now with new pressures and time takers. Thank god then for people like Cherry.

I just needed it in around the waist and this place was recommended to me by another cheerleader who had the same problem. The service was excellent and the turnaround was really fast. I only had to wait a few days (though I think that I probably could have got it back faster had I told them I needed it; as it was I said I didn't need it for a few weeks so they could take their time). It wasn't particularly cheap (I think it was £18 to get it taken in) but it is something that I can't do and it's quite a skill so I wasn't too horrified.

Basically, when I was getting married I needed my trousers taking up, so I headed into the centre and was quoted around £15 for this simple alteration. I had a look at Yell.com and called this place who quoted half the price. The shop is a little ramshackle, but it's friendly, independent, cheap and they did a great job. One thing: make sure you know where it is before you set out. It's tucked away in Brislington (though near St Phillips) and one end of the road it's on isn't accessible by car.

Brunel Tailoring is a curiously named business in more ways than one. As far as I'm aware, Isambard…read moreKingdom Brunel didn't apply his copious design skills to the field of couture! And being owned and run by an Afghan Family you wouldn't expect this name to have been the most obvious choice. Established two years ago this small business has been doing very well. It's forged friendships with other businesses on Gloucester Road that provide regular income, such as Billie Jean Clothing, another concern that is weathering the recession well. As well as making new garments and curtains from scratch, Brunel Tailoring have a nifty sideline in repairs and alterations. I've never taken advantage of their tailoring services, so I can't vouch for that, but I had three items altered recently, all for the incredibly affordable price of £14.00! Saraj, the owner, comes from a family with a long tailoring tradition in his home country, and was savvy enough to work for an Italian tailoring company when he first came to the UK. When ready, he decided to branch out on his own. A brave move in a volatile economy! But at the price I am sure that he'll continue to do well.
