Julie did an amazing job shortening my favorite summer dress, and it fits absolutely perfectly now. I won't go anywhere else in Grabouw for my alterations!

I had a custom skirt made for a wedding and the quality is outstanding. You really get great value for money here compared to city prices.

Each price is per garment. Ask about your specific piece — no two jobs are alike.
Prices are starting rates per garment. Complex alterations or custom designs may vary — just ask.
I started this business because I love sewing and helping people feel good in the clothes they wear. Working from my home in Grabouw, I give every client personal attention — I listen to what you want and make sure your clothes fit you just right.
Whether you need a custom garment made from scratch or your favourite suit taken in, I treat every piece with the same care. My customers keep coming back because I make their old clothes look brand new again.
I work from home so I can give you my full attention. Your garment is never rushed or lost in a pile.
Not just alterations — I design and sew custom garments that fit your body and your style, exactly as you imagine them.
Through restyling and upcycling, I help you fall back in love with pieces you thought were done — sustainably and affordably.
Message me morning or night — I respond promptly and keep you updated on your order throughout the process.
Send a WhatsApp or use the enquiry form to describe what you need. Share a photo of the garment or your idea.
Bring your garment to my home in Grabouw. We agree on exactly what you want and set a timeline together.
Pick up your perfectly fitted garment and pay directly to Julie. Simple, personal, no fuss.
Payment is made directly to Julies Design&Alterations when you collect your garment. No upfront online payments required.
Absolutely — custom design is one of my specialities. Bring your fabric (or we can discuss sourcing), your measurements, and your vision, and I'll sew it exactly as you imagine.
Most standard alterations (hems, taking in/letting out) are done within a few days. Custom garments and more complex work take longer — I'll give you a clear timeline when we discuss your piece.
