Seasons change — and your wardrobe should too.
But that doesn’t mean you need to buy new clothes every time the weather shifts.
At A+ Tailoring Frisco, we help you stay stylish and comfortable all year long by making small, strategic alterations to your existing clothing. Whether you’re preparing for spring breezes or autumn chills, minor tailoring can make a big difference in both fit and function.
Here’s how to update your favorite pieces for every season — without overhauling your closet.
🌸 Spring: Lighten the Layers
As the temperatures rise, heavy fabrics and long sleeves can feel too warm. Here’s how we help clients get spring-ready:
✔️ Shorten sleeves on jackets and blouses
- Create a 3/4 sleeve or elbow-length cut
- Add rolled or vented cuff details
✔️ Remove inner linings from coats or blazers
- Reduces weight and allows more breathability
✔️ Shorten pants or skirts
- Hemming gives a lighter, fresher look for spring and summer
☀️ Summer: Stay Cool, Stay Sharp
Beat the heat while staying polished.
✔️ Add breathable linings or underarm shields
- Prevent sweat stains and improve airflow
✔️ Adjust waistbands for looser summer fits
- More comfort for shorts and trousers in hot weather
✔️ Reshape flowing dresses or shirts
- Make summer silhouettes more flattering without losing comfort
🍁 Fall: Add Warmth & Structure
Time to bring back the layers — and reinforce your clothes for colder weather.
✔️ Add inner linings to jackets and blazers
- Keeps warmth in without changing the outer look
- Perfect for wool or heavy cotton
✔️ Lengthen sleeves or pant hems
- We can often release original hems for added length
✔️ Add hidden buttons or closures
- For cardigans, capes, or wrap coats to keep out the wind
❄️ Winter: Reinforce for Comfort
Make your go-to pieces winter-ready.
✔️ Add thermal linings or quilted backing
✔️ Adjust coats to fit over thicker layers
✔️ Repair zippers, buttons, or worn edges on outerwear
A few smart alterations can extend the life of your favorite seasonal pieces — and keep you stylish through any weather.
