Based on the Gold Coast and welcoming enquiries from across the area.
The fabric, lining, construction and existing condition affect what is possible. Kymmy may need to inspect the garment or arrange a fitting before confirming a price.
Delicate or sentimental pieces deserve a little extra discussion. Mention any event date early; urgent work depends on availability.
