The clothes are made in London and are inspired by our modern lifestyles and structured silhouettes with Japanese origami pattern-making techniques.

Testimonials and reviews

Bespoke tailor

"Needed to get a pair of trousers taken up for a wedding, Claire and the team were absolutely fantastic. They helped with finding the perfect length and had the trousers ready the next day. Absolutely fantastic service and well priced. Definitely recommend!"

"Claire @ Couchman was so helpful and attentive to the work I needed doing. Best fitting suit I’ve ever owned, ever! I’ll only be using Couchman from here on."

"I had two shirts and a vest altered. The results were outstanding. Claire is such a great professional. Fantastic price as well!"

"I took a cheap off the rack suit to Claire to alter. The whole service was professional and friendly and Claire listened to what I wanted whilst giving helpful suggestions and guidance to get the best fit possible. Once the suit arrived back to me, it fit like a dream and has gone from a suit I put off wearing to one that is in my regular rotation. Recently wore it to a wedding and received a number of compliments. Overall wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Claire, and will certainly be looking to take other items to her in future (and checking out her own range!)"

"I’ve been here twice now, once for my wedding dress altering and a second time for another dress altering. Claire is fantastic, professional and listens to what you want and more importantly delivers on what you’ve asked for. Her prices are competitive too. Highly recommend"

"I came across Couchman bespoke while asking for advice on where to find sustainable robes in a sustainable fashion group on Facebook. Claire has a personal approach, listen to needs, and always kept me up to date with progress. It was fun to choose fabric from a range of suggested sustainable ones she sent over, and we even had a video call to ensure i had taken my measurements correctly. The robe exceeded my expectations, it is absolutely beautiful and i am very tempted to have any future clothes made the same way! Would recommend to anyone!"

FAQs

How much to alter a garment?

For pricing, visit the Alterations and Bespoke page.

Are you a shop?

We aren’t a shop. I work alongside other artisans in a shared studio in East London. If you’d like me to alter or make a garment, please book an appointment.

Do you teach sewing courses or clothes-making courses?

Yes! I run courses under the name ‘Moxie Craft’. Have a look my list of upcoming course dates.

Do you alter wedding and prom style dresses?

As a bespoke tailor, we can alter all clothes. Garments that are more delicate require more time spent on them and will take longer. Three weeks is the minimum timeline.

Do you alter curtains?

Unfortunately we do not have the space to work on such items.

How long do you need to make a garment?

A garment can take up to six weeks minimum to make. A suit or gown can take up to five months to make.

How long does it take to alter a wedding/ bridesmaid dress?

Three weeks minimum is required for alterations of gowns that require time taken to provide a quality finish.

Should I wear or bring anything special for the fitting?

Please bring or wear the correct underwear, shirt and shoes you would be wearing with the garment generally.
