Clothes That Fit
Like They Were Made for You
Off-the-rack never looked so good. From quick hems to full restyles, we transform your garments into a perfect, personal fit — right here in Bangor.
Expert Alterations & Repairs
Every stitch is placed with care. Whether it's a quick adjustment or a complete transformation, we bring your garments back to life.
Hemming & Tailoring
Pants, skirts, dresses — we shorten, taper, and reshape garments so they drape exactly how you want them to.
Zipper Replacement
Broken zipper? We'll remove the old one and install a smooth, sturdy replacement that looks and feels brand new.
Sizing Adjustments
Too tight? Too loose? We take in, let out, and restructure garments for a flattering, comfortable fit.
Mending & Repairs
Tears, holes, loose seams — we restore your favorite pieces so they're ready to wear again.
Wedding & Formal Wear
Your special day deserves a perfect fit. We handle delicate fabrics and detailed designs with extra care and precision.

A Local Shop with a Passion for Perfect Fits
Located on Allen Street in the heart of Bangor, Vickie's Sewing Alterations and More is your neighborhood destination for everything thread and needle. We've built our reputation on honest work, careful attention to detail, and treating every garment — from a simple pair of jeans to a cherished wedding dress — as if it were our own.
We understand that clothes are more than fabric. They're the things you reach for every day, the outfits that make you feel confident, the pieces you can't bear to part with. When something doesn't fit right or gets damaged, we're here to make it whole again — quickly, affordably, and with a personal touch you won't find at a big-box tailor.
Three Simple Steps to a Perfect Fit
We've made the process as smooth as the stitching. Here's what to expect when you bring your garment to us.
Bring It In
Stop by our shop at 17 Allen St or give us a call to discuss your project. We'll examine the garment and let you know exactly what can be done.
We Measure & Plan
We take your measurements, discuss the fit you want, and provide a clear estimate before any work begins. No surprises — just honest guidance.
Pick It Up
Once your garment is ready, come back to try it on. We want you to be completely happy with the result — that's our guarantee.
Crafted with Care
A glimpse into our shop — every detail matters when you're making something fit just right.
Everything You Need to Know
Walk-ins are always welcome during our business hours, but we recommend calling ahead for larger projects so we can set aside time for your garment.
Simple hems can often be done in a day or two. More complex adjustments may take a week or so. We'll give you an honest timeline when you drop off your item.
From cotton and denim to silk, lace, and everything in between — we have experience with a wide range of fabrics and materials.
Absolutely. We'll evaluate your garment and provide a clear, upfront estimate before any work starts. There are never hidden fees or surprise charges.
