Jugendweihe outfit alterations

Jugendweihe outfit alterations in Berlin-Treptow

Updated: September 2026

The first suit, the first proper gown — and almost always bought a size too big. We shorten sleeves, trouser legs and hems and take in the waist so everything fits on the big day. Also for confirmation and communion outfits. In spring it pays to come early.

Frequently asked

When should we bring in the Jugendweihe suit?

Ideally as soon as you have it — two to three weeks before the ceremony leaves room for a second fitting. Running late? Come anyway: we manage a lot at short notice, express by arrangement.

What do Jugendweihe alterations cost?

Trouser hemming from €12, dress hem from €18, sleeves and waist priced by the work involved. We quote the fixed price at the fitting at Baumschulenstraße 36 — nothing is charged before that.

The suit was bought a size too big — can you fix that?

Yes, that's perfectly normal. Trouser legs, waist and sleeves can almost always be taken in cleanly. The shoulders just need to roughly fit — we check that quickly at the fitting in Berlin.
