Retouches Express — Dress and suit alterations, made to fit
About Retouches Express
Retouches Express is based in Accra and has 11 years of experience with weddings, engagements and galas. Hems, bustles, taking in, letting out and re-beading for bridal gowns, suits and traditional outfits, with fittings booked around your date and an emergency slot the week of the event.
Every booking starts with a call about your date, your guests and your budget, and a written, itemised quote follows within 48 hours. Prices start from 960 GHS.
We work in English and French. Popular dates go months ahead, so it is worth asking early; sending a request is free.

Reviews★ 4.60 · 5 reviews
Good work, though we would have liked a little more contact before the day.
On time, well organised and genuinely kind with our families.
Very good overall; one small delay at the start, quickly fixed.
Professional from the first call to the last guest leaving. Everything we agreed on was delivered.

Frequently asked
When should we book the first fitting?
Four to six weeks before the event, once the dress or suit has arrived.
Do you alter traditional outfits?
Yes: bazin, kente, agbada and wax, including embroidery repairs.
Do you work outside Accra?
Yes. Within 100 km there is no travel fee; further away we add travel to the quote.
