The White Closet TWC Alterations
The White Closet, TWC, Manchester
Our team supports bridal designers in London and its surroundings, as well as prestigious bridal stores and stockists chosen by brides who have moved to London. One of the unique bridal stockists is The White Closet TWC, a multi-award-winning bridal stockist in Manchester. The store opened in 2009 to change perceptions and explore creativity in the slightly stiff world of bridal stockists at the time.
TWC Manchester is the bridal institution for the confident bride who chooses an independent, individual style above all. The consciously curated collection of expressive international bridal designers, such as Vivienne Westwood, Newhite, Chosen by Kyha, Halfpenny, Alena Leena, and Jesus Peiro, offers brides contemporary, elegant, bohemian, and romantic bridal looks depending on how brides want to express themselves on their wedding day.
Driven by the best customer service in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, TWC allows brides to find their bridal passion indeed.
The White Closet, TWC Bridal Alterations
We have been working with TWC for many years, which has been an absolute pleasure due to the team’s professionalism.
TWC bridal alterations can vary significantly depending on the design and type of dress you choose. To provide an idea of costs, please send us photographs of the dress and also from your collection appointment. Remember that each layer of the bridal skirt needs to be shortened. The fuller the skirt, the longer it takes—the more detail and complexity of a bridal gown, the more costly the alteration charges.
We support you with your dream dress, but please keep an alteration budget in mind. Remember that alterations can make up 25-70% of the price of your wedding dress, especially when a dress needs resizing and restyling.
