I don't really mind these before.. But I think I've lost quite few kilos and not much shopping has been done since, still wearing the same old clothes I had fr few years back.

But I realized if I go shop for new jeans for example, I picked few sizes too big and settled for size I never had before. Means all those that I had very ill fitting. It's alright most of the time cos I dress down anyway.

So can I alter those well worn clothes? If yes, how much would it cost?

Or should I just build up new wardrobe (which is going to be very costly n I don't really like that) cry.gif

Or just continue wearing until they really old n torn since I'll be dressing up like only for very few specific occasion/night out per months so won't have problem rotating the same outfit over n over again laugh.gif

I have more problem with old clothes being too small for me. sad.gif

So I just buy new clothes.

Ask around your aunties see if they have any aunty friends who knows how to do these alteration. That's what I usually do. It's usually cheaper than outside but maybe less professional.

if you go to a bigger or average shop, ask them for bulk price, for example, i want to alter my cloths and i have 20 pcs, what's the best price you can offer etc. they are likely more expensive but better alteration. if you go to small shops like those private one doing in their house or elder people's side income, then they are more likely to be cheaper BUT dont expect much (they are made to fit not see) =)
