I see so many beautiful sarees, suits, and dresses tucked away just because they’re out of style or don’t fit anymore. It’s always a shame, na? I like breathing new life into these garments, taking something you haven’t worn in years and making it feel fresh and totally you. ### How I Work My Magic - I can turn your old saree into a stunning lehenga or even a chic Indo-Western dress - saree to lehenga transformation is something I do a lot. - Ethnic wear feeling outdated? I’ll switch up necklines, sleeves or the whole silhouette to give it a modern ethnic wear tailoring twist. - If you’ve got ready-made clothes that just don’t sit right, I’m good at custom fit dress adjustments so they hug you just right. ### The Process - No Long Lectures You bring the garment and your idea, maybe even a picture for inspo. I’ll check out the fabric and chat with you about what’ll look best. Once you’re happy, I get to work. You stay involved from start to finish, so you’re never surprised. ### My Work Promise Been doing ladies’ tailoring since 1985. I’m obsessed with neat stitching and sharp details, even if sometimes it takes a little longer. I’ll be honest - I’m not the cheapest, but what you get is real quality and a perfect fit. No jugaad, only solid work. ## Highlights Browse through Shyam Ji Tailors's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/shyamjitailors/garment-redesign-alterations/featured) - ![This beautiful bridal lehenga was created by redesigning an older garment.
