I was grateful to have the expertise of Trudy and her team after requiring alterations to a wedding dress that didn’t quite fit. The expertise, creativity and innovation of the team at Nemo resulted in the perfect dress, so perfectly pulled together and perfectly tailored for me.

Trudy’s ‘can do’ approach helped fill me with confidence that her team would be able to achieve the outcome I was after for what quite frankly, I thought would be impossible to achieve. Massive thanks to Trudy and the team. A hidden wee gem in Frankton that can work magic!

Thank you Nemo Workroom for replacing the zipper on my FAVE puffer jacket. This jacket still have plenty of years of adventure left and I was so upset when the zipper broke - I thought I’d have to throw it away. These wonderful ladies are so friendly and their work is outstanding! Highly recommended.

Awesome service. I came to see you pre-lockdown with a bridesmaid's dress that another business had been adament could not be adjusted for my slim 11-year old. You guys quickly, and without fuss, made the necessary alterations and did it for a great price. Definitely my go-to for any clothing alteration needs.

Laura & the team were amazing. We organised one suit from Aus without any problems then they stepped up at the last minute to organise another suit for our son. Nothing was too much trouble. We landed , had a quick fitting and the suits were ready to collect the next day. Exceptional service, stylish suits and all round really nice people to deal with. Highly recommend.

I arrived in Queenstown tired and stressed out after fruitlessly searching Wellington for a dress six weeks before my wedding, nothing was right. Then my friend convinced me to meet Trudy at Nemo. It was a Sunday but she took the time to open the shop for me specifically. Within an hour we had a basic idea nutted out and measurements taken. Over the next six weeks Elizabeth constructed my outfit. She listened to my ideas and concerns and offered constructive advice. I only wish I had gone to the team at Nemo first! Thanks Ladies!

Trudy and the rest of the team at Nemo were amazing. They made it possible for me to have the wedding dress I had always dreamed of.  They worked with my ideas and really understood what style I was after. The service they provide is fantastic and the team are so friendly; they really know how to make you feel special. I love my dress!

I threw so many ideas at Trudy and the girls. I wanted a standout dress…something that had not been done before. I was definitely steered in the right direction when I was possibly getting to wild! But in the end I believe we created the most magical dress in the world. Then after nearly dying of food poisoning a week out from the wedding, thus having to forfeit one of my last dress fittings, Trudy travelled to me in Invercargill which was a huge mission for her, so I would definitely give Nemo a 10/10 .

Trudy was amazing in the first appointment. Very professional and she has so much knowledge, so I was very confident in having Nemo make my dress. Kristen then took over and did an incredible job! Throughout the whole process (including about four fittings), everything was perfect and beautifully done. I had a vision in my mind of the dress and the features I wanted, and Kristen totally understood what I wanted then put it all together and made it beautiful! I could not have wished for any better!

I think everyone should know how amazing Nemo is and have no doubt that they are in the very best hands when deciding to get their dress made by you. I only visited Nemo once, had a pregnancy in-between and we live on different islands, they managed to create the dress of my dreams from one single photograph. You truly are amazing!
