The Good Stuff
Precise fit
Customers repeatedly describe trousers, shirts, dresses and suits returning with a noticeably improved, precise fit.
Made-to-measure dresses
The service is not limited to repairs: one customer was very happy with a newly tailored dress as well as alterations.
Home visits
Home service can save a trip to the shop; customers reported punctual visits and prompt delivery, including a jacket collected on the promised date.
Formalwear repairs
An evening gown was repaired so it fit perfectly again and looked as good as new, according to one review.
Clear listening
A trouser alteration review says the team followed every instruction given, useful when you have a specific fit or style in mind.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm timing. Ask for a firm completion date before leaving simple alterations, since one order took a full week.
Request a quote. Get the alteration price before work begins, particularly for small repairs where customers have reported sharply different quotes.
Check express fees. If you need a rush job, ask how the express surcharge applies before agreeing to the turnaround.
Consider home service. For multiple garments or a busy schedule, ask about home service; one customer used it for around 10 pieces and saved time.
Inspect collection. Check garments carefully when collecting or receiving delivery, especially after formalwear alterations, because one review reported a stain and odour.

Common Concerns
Uneven pricing
Some customers found minor work expensive: one was quoted 150 AED and found a nearby alternative charging less than half.
Express surcharge
A review reports a 50% additional charge for express work, so urgent requests may cost significantly more.
Longer turnaround
Simple alterations are not always rapid: one abaya and trouser order took a week.
Collection issue
One customer received a suit with a strong food smell and a visible stain, then felt their refund concern was not resolved.

The Bottom Line
My Tailor & Little Things in DIFC is geared towards practical clothing adjustments, from trouser hems and shirt alterations to jacket and uniform fitting. Customers also use it for tailor-made dresses, evening-gown repairs and suits, with many reviews highlighting clean finishing and a precise fit. Speed is a genuine strength for some jobs.
A shirt was altered in under an hour, while other customers received items the same day, within a couple of days or in less than a day. That said, turnaround is not guaranteed: one relatively simple abaya-and-trouser order took a week, so confirm the promised date before leaving your clothes. There is also a home-service option, which is useful for several garments or when getting to the shop is inconvenient.
A customer had around 10 pieces handled this way and reported prompt delivery. Staff are often described as polite, welcoming and attentive to instructions. Pricing deserves a conversation upfront.
Reviews include affordable trouser and uniform alterations, but others mention 150 AED for a minor alteration, a 50% express charge and 800 for simply shortening a dress. One serious complaint involved a stained, food-smelling suit and an unresolved refund request, so inspect formalwear carefully at collection.
