Need alterations for a tailored dress and adjustments

£14.4 - £16.7 per hourEstimated

I’m looking for a skilled seamstress to help with alterations on a dress I’m wearing to a family event next week. The dress is fitted through the bodice and hips, and I need a minor take-in at the waist, a hem adjustment, and a possible zipper replacement. I’d prefer someone who can assess the fabric and advise on the best approach, and who can work with delicate materials. I’m hoping to have the work done within 2–3 hours and would appreciate a clear estimate upfront. Please let me know if you need any measurements or photos beforehand.
