How to repair your skirt: buttons, zippers, lining and hems

Don't throw away your damaged skirt - TILLI can repair it! Our expert craftsmen will restore every detail, from a missing button to a damaged lining, a broken zip, a loose seam or an unraveled hem. And thanks to the Repair Bonus*, your repairs will cost you less while maintaining impeccable quality.

Repairing fallen buttons on a skirt

A dropped button can prevent a skirt from fitting properly, or spoil its aesthetic appeal. Our craftsmen first examine the missing button: if it's salvageable, we sew it back on securely. If not, we find a matching button or propose a harmonious series to maintain a visually perfect finish.
Every button repair on a skirt is carried out using robust thread and techniques adapted to the material to ensure that this problem does not recur.

Repairing a broken zip on a skirt

A broken zipper can render your skirt unusable. At TILLI, we repair or replace zippers with care. Whether classic, invisible or decorative, we select a model to match the color and style of your skirt.
Replacing or repairing a zipper requires precision and expertise. We take care to maintain the symmetry of the seams so that the finish is both aesthetic and durable. Thanks to our Repair Bonus*, replacing a zip costs just €14 instead of €22.

Repairing loose seams on a skirt

A loose seam is a detail that can quickly get worse if left untreated. Our craftsmen first stabilize damaged areas to prevent the fabric from tearing further. Then we use invisible stitches or topstitching to restore the original look and strength.
Delicate materials such as silk, lace or satin are treated with particular care. Every repaired seam on your skirt is discreet, yet solid. And with the Repair Bonus*, these repairs cost just €6 instead of €12.

Repairing loose hems on a skirt

A loose hem can make a skirt lose all its elegance. TILLI offers repairs to suit every style and fabric type. For a refined finish, our craftsmen use invisible hand-stitches, while quilted hems are ideal for thicker fabrics.
Before each hem repair, we measure and pin with precision to ensure a seamless result. Even skirts with rounded or asymmetrical hems receive special attention. This repair also benefits from the Repair Bonus* - €6 instead of €12.

Skirt lining repair

The lining of a skirt plays an essential role in its comfort and aesthetics. When the lining is torn, loose or worn, our craftsmen repair or replace it. We adapt each intervention to the material of the skirt, whether it's silk, polyester or a thicker fabric.
Our techniques guarantee a repair that's invisible from the outside, and a flawless finish on the inside. And thanks to our Repair Bonus*, lining repairs now cost from €7 instead of €17.

At TILLI, every repair, whether it's a fallen button, a broken zip, a loose seam, an unraveled hem or a damaged lining, is carried out with care and expertise. Our craftsmen use specially adapted techniques to restore your skirt to its full glory and comfort.
The Repair Bonus* makes these services even more affordable. Why deprive yourself of extending the life of your favorite garments? Entrust your skirt to TILLI and give it a new lease of life.
