I put on weight before coming, so I bought plenty of bigger sized clothes. A few weeks of being of cooking and melting under the sun, I lost more weight that I had gain. I'd rather not go buy a whole new wardrobe. Where can I find a decent tailor to reduce some pants and maybe a few dress shirt?
I don't mind driving far, but if you know one around the Dubai Marina, it would be great.

I've never tried any here in Dubai, but I really need to get some jeans done. Let me know how you get on!

Thanks for the links, I had already saw this. But I wanted a recommendation if possible. I guess I'll just to the few ones around my place and pick one.
There are quite a few tailors at the south end of Satwa, near to the bus station. I find them to be reliable and fast. I don't know any near the marina.
There's a tailor in Al Barsha-1 opposite the mosque behind Mall of Emirates; on the road going towards Lulu hypermarket. Will post the name tomorow, cant remember now, its en route my daily commute.

There is a lady who employs a team of tailors. They come to your house to pick up your clothing and all necessary instructions. They deliver altered clothing back within a week.
My friends have had dresses made and I have had all my pants altered through her. They do a good job.
PM me if interested.
I've heard good things about Dream Girls in Satwa.
There's a great tailor in the XVA cafe in Bastikya. We've trusted him with Chanel suits to jeans and never had a problem.
Thank you, I'll try it
