I opted for a skirt suit, the skirt fitted perfectly but the jacket didn't look as fitted as it could.

The result was a jacket so distorted that it was unwearable. I took the jacket to another tailor, who is highly reputable, for recovery of this poor work and who said, "It's the worst tailoring job I have ever seen...the tailor who has tried to repair your jacket has actually destroyed it." I spoke to the Mr Marquez on the phone, but he was "too busy" to have a conversation. I wrote to him, but he did not respond. I returned to the shop and spoke to him where he denied any damage had been done, stated emphatically that the jacket was wearable and said, "It's just a jacket, nobody has died." He finally admitted he had not done the work himself, nor had he seen the final work as he had delegated this to an assistant. Is this a quality and professional service? Let the product and behaviours speak for themselves.

My eternal quest for shoe dye continues... I thought a launderettes would be an ideal place for…read morefinding shoe dye, but sadly not. I popped in here primarily to ask about whether they had any in stock - which they didn't. Obviously this was disappointing, but it gave me a chance to look round. They're doing a good job here - washing, ironing, repairs, alterations - even free advice, it seems. As I went in, the lady at the counter was giving a lot of helpful advice to a gentleman who was very concerned about a silk shirt of his. It seems that he hadn't even used their services, but was just after some advice, which was happily given. They also imparted lots of advice to me as to where to pick up shoe dye, and, along the theme of general helpful information, have sort of local noticeboard in their shop, which I thought was a nice, civic-minded touch. If I have any further clothing-related needs, I shall visit Ulverlie Washe again. They know their stuff.

I came in here a few weeks ago with my aunt as we needed to wash a pair of curtains that were too…read morebig to fit in either of our machines. It was a spur of the moment kind of visit in which we rapidly spotted it and immediately pulled up outside all raring to get these curtains washed. Inside were obviously lots of machines as you would expect and the lady that worked there asked us if we needed anything else doing to the curtains, ie. If they needed ironing afterwards or adjusting. We respectfully declined as we could iron them ourselves, but thanked her anyway. It was really lovely of her to ask and to be honest we did not expect her to be so helpful and accommodating as we were only washing some curtains. Anyway, the machines were great and did the job, we did not want to tumble dry them and so left afterwards. It is a handy place to know about!

He s recently moved to a swanky new studio on Vyse st above a jewellery shop. I usually make a trip with some random vintage dress I've bought that doesn't fit or occasionally with my favourite pieces that are now too big for me ( I've been shrinking a bit recently). Karlus listens intently to what I need and always delivers the dress improvements to deadline, sometimes staying late so I can pop in on my way home from work. He tailored a beautiful vintage suit that my other half found in a vintage barn and it now fits him perfectly...not bad for £30 charge. I couldn't recommend him enough and he ll be tailoring the other halves wedding suit and my mum s dress for our summer wedding!

FINALLY finding something that I love, and it breaks. I was in this conundrum before Swingamjig festival. I have a fabulous 1950's swing dress (which I have worn to death), but sometime last year the zip just disintegrated. Now, it was a fairly old and very well loved dress, so it's not a surprise - but I was devastated. But what to do? I have used a couple of places in the City before but found them to be very expensive for something as simple as fixing a zip. I remembered a recommendation from Joanne D. (she got her bag fixed by these guys) and took my beloved dress down to Piccadilly arcade. The tailor's is on the top end of the Arcade (closer to New Street than Stephenson Street) and has clear signage. It looks like a bit of a jumble sale inside (with garments everywhere and a sewing machine on the counter), but this is probably a sign of their popularity in the City. I popped in around 11am to see what the damage would be for the dress. I was greeted with a warm smile and welcomed in to the store. I handed the offending garment over to them and they had a brief look. I was offered a replacement zip service for £8 (which really isn't bad) and told it would be ready the next day (in time for the festival). Feeling very relieved, I paid in advance and left it there. I actually couldn't get back the next day (busy times), but popped in the day after to collect. You honestly wouldn't know it had been fixed! They managed to pop in a very strong replacement "hidden" zip which is even better than the original one! The staff seem to really know what they are doing, service is friendly, prices are very reasonable (I remember Jo saying they fixed a zip on her bag for £3) and I was very pleased with the work they had done. If you have a garment in need of a bit of TLC, you could do far worse than popping into Top Tailors and seeing what they can do.
