At FXRY, we take pride in offering a range of popular personalized services that our clients love. Let's explore the top 10 most requested services at FXRY that cater to your everyday tailoring needs and showcase the incredible qualities of our professional fixer team.
1. Original Denim Hems
Our original denim hems service is a favorite among clients looking for a simple and authentic alteration to their denim jeans. Jeans are washed after they are sewn together, so the edge along the hem has a washed look that can’t be replicated with a regular hem. Our fixers use a special method that preserves this look, offering you perfectly fitted clothes with the most original look at a length that suits you. That’s the OG.
2. Sweater Hole Repairs
Our sweater hole repair service is a go-to for anyone looking to fix minor damages and give their cherished knitwear a new lease on life. We use expert darning techniques with the best match yarn available to mend your sweater holes. While we aim to make the repair as discreet as possible, please note that we don't offer full reknitting at this time. But good news—full reknitting is a service we’re working on adding in the near future!
3. Zipper Replacements
Our zipper replacement service is perfect for clients who need new zippers in their favorite garments, ensuring they continue to function perfectly and look great. Zippers break down, but you don’t have to! Let us keep this item out of the landfill, supporting eco-friendly fashion practices.
4. Taking Waists in on Jeans & Pants
Achieve the perfect fit with our waist alteration service for jeans and pants, ensuring comfort and style go hand in hand. The waist on pants is often too big compared to the rest of the garment. With this service, you can bring that waist in, tailoring your pants or jeans just for you. This aligns with the future of fashion, focusing on personalized tailoring services.
5. Regular Hems
Our regular hems service offers a classic finish to your trousers, dresses, skirts, and more, giving them a polished and timeless look. This service is intended for items that require a straightforward, basic hem. For items with a more intricate hem design, we recommend selecting our original hem option, which showcases our tailoring expertise.
6. Shortening the Bodice of Jumpsuits
For clients needing specialized alterations, our service for shortening jumpsuit bodices ensures a comfortable and customized fit. Jumpsuits are designed for people of a median height of 5’7” to 5’9”. If you fall below that height or don't match the fit size of the brand of jumpsuit you have, the top section above the waistband is often too long. We can shorten that section, fixing your garment to be sized just for you, showcasing our innovative tailoring solutions.
7. Sleeve Removal
Our sleeve removal service provides a solution for clients looking to modify their garments and create a different style. This is a great solution for vintage or thrifted garments that feel dated. Sleeve shapes come and go, but a sleeveless top or dress is timeless. This is a great way to update a dress or top and keep it in rotation, aligned with fashion industry trends.
8. Cropping Tee Shirts
Refresh your wardrobe with our tee shirt cropping service, giving your tees a modern and stylish twist. Vintage tees are all the craze, and often they are just too dang long. This service allows you to get just the length you want, whether it be a little shorter or a true crop top. Our coverstitch machine replicates the finish, rendering it just as it originally was but shorter. Crop it like it’s hot. 🔥
9. Button Replacements
Our button replacement service is the perfect way to refresh your garments with new buttons. Buttons have a tendency to fall off and vanish (mine always seem to disappear when my dog, Petey, is around). We're here to ensure your favorite pieces stay in your wardrobe by replacing missing buttons. We'll match the original button as closely as possible, showcasing the best qualities of a tailor and keeping your clothes looking great.
10. Hole Repairs in Denim
Repair denim holes with care and precision through our sustainable repair solutions, promoting a more eco-friendly approach. If you are anything like me, you wear your jeans to death. I have three favorites that I wear on repeat and the most common places for wear are in the crotch, around the corners of the top of the back pockets, near the belt loops, and in the knees. These are the areas that experience the most friction from movement. We darn those holes right up with a matching denim patch on the inside and matching thread on the outside. Often we use darker denim behind and a lighter thread on the outside to mimic the high-low color effect of washed denim.
At FXRY, we focus on providing quality alterations tailored to your everyday needs. We're dedicated to sustainable fashion practices and delivering solutions that fit your style and preferences perfectly. Our commitment to offering practical services ensures you receive the quality and attention to detail you deserve. The future of fashion is all about repair and renewal via personalized tailoring services. Our exceptional tailoring qualities and professional tailor skills ensure perfectly fitted clothes every time, embracing sustainable fashion practices for 2024 and beyond.
