Why customers choose us

What makes And Something Blue stand out

01

Transform Any Dress to Perfect Fit

Customers hire And Something Blue to solve complex alteration challenges that other tailors won't attempt. Their seamstresses handle extensive structural modifications — including corset boning, lace work, and multi-size reductions — while preserving the integrity of high-end fabrics and construction.

I purchased a gorgeous sample dress that was 6 sizes too big off the rack, and they made the dress fit me like a glove.

Guided, Personalised Dress Discovery

Brides hire And Something Blue when they want expert styling guidance rather than browsing alone. Stylists actively listen to preferences, ask the right questions, and curate selections tailored to each bride's venue, body type, and timeline — making the search feel intentional rather than overwhelming.

She was so thoughtful, insightful, and refreshingly honest about which gowns were best for my venue, body type, and style preferences.

In-house alteration service

They also do custom dresses and I'd trust them to do anything! I had a high end dress that I bought in NYC and they recommended I bring it here for alterations as they are used to working with silks etc.

The little things that matter

Beyond expectations

Stylists Who Actually Listen

Rather than steering brides toward a predetermined selection, stylists take the time to absorb real-time feedback and refine their pulls accordingly — bringing out new options that genuinely reflect what each bride is responding to, dress by dress.

Honest, Personalised Guidance

The team offers candid, thoughtful input on which gowns suit a bride's venue, body type, and style — grounded advice that feels tailored to the individual rather than a rehearsed sales pitch.

A Calm, Unhurried Atmosphere

Even brides working with tight timelines leave feeling supported rather than rushed. The overall environment is designed to reduce the stress that often accompanies such a significant purchase.

Generous Fitting Appointments

Brides are given the space to explore freely — trying on as many gowns as they need in a single appointment — so nothing feels like a missed opportunity or a hurried decision.

Fitting Rooms Stocked With Shoes

The fitting rooms are equipped with shoes to try alongside each gown, giving brides a truer sense of how the full look will come together rather than having to imagine it.

Deep Fabric and Construction Knowledge

The alterations team brings specialist expertise in complex materials — silks, guipure lace, corset boning — meaning brides with intricate or high-end gowns can trust that every detail will be handled with the right level of care.

Alterations That Go Beyond the Dress

The team's support extends to other garments a bride might need for her day — from bridesmaid dresses to first dance outfits — ensuring a consistent level of fit and finish across every look, not just the wedding gown.

A Beautifully Considered Space

The store itself is thoughtfully decorated, creating an environment that feels special and celebratory — adding to the sense that the experience of finding a dress is worth savouring, not just completing.

First dance and performance dress modifications

Irina also helped me with my first dance dress! Her fabric know-how was invaluable with modifying the floor-length stiff ballroom style I'd found into a much more flowy skirt that better suited our bachata choreography.
