testimonials

Very happy with alterations by Novelette. Quick and professional. So much better than trusting things to a dodgy dry cleaner.

Very professional and quick service at reasonable prices. Novelette is highly skilled and has manyyears of experience. Recommend her.

Novelette was extremely accommodating when I needed a same-day dress alteration. She made time to see me and altered the dress while I waited. The price was reasonable, and Novelette was friendly and efficient.

Novelette’s designs are truly unique. She is a passionate, professional and very humble. Although she is a brilliant designer, I like the fact that she is willing to put the customer’s needs first. I had her make something unique for me and I was happy with the product.

Novelette altered my bridesmaid dress at short notice and did so with absolute precision. I needed it taking up and the straps shortened. She made the length perfect – enough that I wouldn’t trip on the dress but long enough, so it hung elegantly with heels. She was friendly and professional throughout.

Novelette achieved her BA in Menswear at the London College of Fashion before taking up various jobs in the fashion industry. She has now started her own label and we wish her every success with this venture.

I highly recommend Novelette as a sewing technician/machinist/pattern cutter. She is exceptionally skilled, meaning garments are finished to high standards. She assisted me in making a leather piece for my S/S 2010 collection that I presented at London Fashion Week. I hope to work with her again.

We bought a dress from David’s Bridal and their alteration will take 4 to 5 weeks! We can’t wait that long! So, I found Novelette Novalis! Alteration service is so good! The length of our bridesmaid dresses are not simple to cut. She managed to cut it and maintain the style of the dress!

Novelette’s designs are inspirational, beautiful and the workmanship and tailoring is second to none. I had the pleasure of working for Novelette on a location shoot. Her instructions were clear, she was well organised, and her sense of humour brought joy to the shoot. Would be very happy to work with her at any time.

Great service from Novelette. My jeans were recently altered by her and they now look great. Make do and mend is the way forward!

I fully recommend Novelette as a menswear and womenswear designer whose designs are a pointer to the future and innovative. Customers will be proud to wear garments designed by the Novelette Novalis label.

Very fast repair service, excellent quality of work and fair prices. What more can be said?

Novelette is a great person to work with and is full of creative ideas and has a very good track record in her line of business. I recommend her highly.
