Tips for a Better Visit
Set Deadline. Tell the team your deadline upfront; customers report successful express work for weddings, graduations and urgent requests.
Arrive Early. Do not rely on the advertised 9pm closing time; reviews say customer acceptance may end after 8pm.
Confirm Quote. Ask how the alteration will be priced before leaving garments, since one review says prices vary by item.
Use Notifications. Ask whether SMS notifications are available so you know when smaller repairs or larger projects are ready.
Explain Usage. For suit alterations, explain how and where you will wear the suit; one customer received fit advice after discussing its intended use.

The Bottom Line
My Tailor & Little Things - Marina Walk is a Dubai Marina tailoring shop for custom-made clothing, alterations and repairs. Reviews specifically mention trousers shortened, jeans taken in at the waist, dresses adjusted for weddings, and complete suits fitted to the customer’s needs. It is also used for more delicate work, including luxury designer shirts, leather garments and expensive gowns.
Speed is a major draw. A trouser-and-jeans job was ready in under 48 hours, a complete suit dropped off on Saturday was collected Tuesday, and five suits were finished in under a week. Urgent requests have included a graduation dress and a Valentine’s dress, both completed in time.
Larger workloads can be handled too: one customer received more than 30 altered garments back within a week. The reviews are not entirely uniform. One customer said a dress was ruined and described the staff as rude.
Another reported that prices were not fixed, so ask for the cost before leaving your items. The website reportedly lists a 9pm closing time, but customers may not be accepted after 8pm. For a first visit, explain your deadline and fit requirements clearly, especially for complex work such as a dress with a side zipper.
