The Good Stuff
Fast Turnaround
Several customers received event-ready alterations quickly, including a prom dress shortened on very short notice.
Home Service
The at-home option saves repeat trips; one customer had 11 items completed in five days.
Complex Repairs
Reviews include a difficult cashmere scarf repair and a suit tear other tailors had said was impossible to fix.
Accurate Fitting
Customers describe shirts and dresses coming back to the requested fit, with one dress resized in a single day and try.
Design Support
For a wedding dress with gloves, the team made a sample pair for trial before completing the final product.
Flexible Scheduling
A repeat customer says the team accommodated an unpredictable schedule while remaining punctual and professional.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm Pricing. Ask for every alteration fee and discount condition in writing before work starts; one customer learned a 70 fee only at checkout.
Set Deadlines. For event clothing, confirm the realistic completion time; a gloves order included a trial sample and final doorstep delivery.
Consider Home Service. If repeat fittings are inconvenient, ask about home service; one 11-item order was completed in five days.
Check Final Fit. Inspect waist, zips and seams at collection, especially for trousers; one customer found both pairs uneven or crooked.
Protect Garments. For destination weddings, ask how the finished dress will be packaged; one customer received plastic under the garment bag.

Common Concerns
Price Clarity
One customer was told a basic trouser shortening normally cost 70 only at checkout, after it had been described as complimentary.
Higher Prices
A long-term customer considers the pricing high, while another says small changes can cost a lot.
Delivery Delays
One express collection was moved twice, leaving the driver three hours later than the booked time.
Uneven Alteration
A customer reported crooked waist alterations on two pairs of trousers even after one pair was reworked twice.

The Bottom Line
800 Tailor in Al Quoz is geared towards alterations and custom formalwear rather than simple everyday hemming alone. Customers have brought wedding dresses, bridesmaids’ dresses, prom dresses, suits, jumpsuits and evening gowns, with reviews repeatedly describing careful fitting and strong craftsmanship. One customer’s embroidered lace-and-sequin jumpsuit was resized from large to small without a visible problem, while another had a complicated evening gown returned exactly as envisioned.
Speed is a clear advantage when an event is approaching. A prom dress was shortened on very short notice, and another customer received eight resized items two days after a home visit. Home service is also useful for larger wardrobes: one review says 11 items were completed in five days, and another describes a sample pair of gloves being made for an at-home trial before final delivery.
The main caution is pricing and consistency. One customer was told only at checkout that a trouser shortening normally cost 70, and another found the prices high for small changes. There is also a serious negative report about crooked trouser alterations, plus one express collection delayed by three hours.
Confirm the full quote, discount terms and deadline before handing over valuable or event clothing, then check seams, zips and fit at collection.
