FAQ
What types of fabrics can Elim Boutique work with?
We work with a wide variety of fabrics, including fur, wool, leather, suede, lace, silk, denim, linen, cashmere, chiffon, spandex, and synthetic materials. Our experienced team ensures high-quality results across delicate, thick, and specialty fabrics for both everyday and luxury garments.
Does Elim Boutique offer design consultations for non-bridal garments?
Yes! We offer design consultations for casual dresses, formal outfits, suits, tuxedos, and more. Whether you’re planning for a special event or refreshing your wardrobe, our team will help you design and tailor pieces that match your taste, body type, and personal style.
How much does a custom wedding dress or alteration cost?
Costs vary depending on fabric, design, and complexity. We provide detailed quotes during your consultation to ensure full transparency. Whether you’re altering a simple dress or designing a custom wedding gown, we tailor the price to your specific garment and preferences.
Can Elim Boutique accommodate last-minute alterations?
We understand urgent needs and do our best to accommodate last-minute alteration requests. Contact us as soon as possible to discuss your timeline. If our schedule allows, we’ll prioritize your project without compromising the quality of craftsmanship or fit.
Can you repair damaged clothing, such as holes or broken zippers?
Yes, we offer professional clothing repair services. Whether it’s a ripped seam, hole, or broken zipper, our experienced team can restore your favorite garments with precision and care, helping you extend their lifespan and keep them in excellent condition.
What if I need a size adjustment after my garment is finished?
If your garment needs a size adjustment after it’s finished, we’ll make it right. Bring it back and we’ll re-fit it as needed. Your comfort and satisfaction are important to us, and we’re happy to make post-completion adjustments.
What if I’m not happy with the fit after an alteration?
Your satisfaction is our priority. If you’re unhappy with the fit after an alteration, simply return the garment. We’ll make the necessary corrections to ensure the fit is perfect and you feel confident in your clothing.
What’s the difference between tailoring and alterations?
Tailoring involves customizing or creating garments to fit your exact measurements, often from scratch. Alterations modify existing clothing—such as adjusting hemlines, waists, or sleeves—to improve fit. At Elim Boutique, we provide both services for comfort, style, and flawless presentation.
