Over 20 years ago Lilyn Chen founded Alterations Boutique providing alterations, tailoring and couture services. Through client recommendation Lilyn has built up a successful business providing these services to boutiques and personal clients including many celebrities.

The success of this company has been marked by its rapid development from a small business to now employing some 8 tailors/Dressmakers for the daily work.

Lilyn’s formal training began in Shanghai in the 1970s where her love for Design and fashion began. After initially studying dancing she discovered a passion for fashion and moved to the Sydney where she worked for couple of fashion companies at the beginning.

What separates Lilyn’s approach is her professionalism, dedication and her attention to detail. She will spend any amount of time on each garment/client to ensure that the garment is absolutely perfect.

Today her passion with which she founded the business is still shared by all of the team.
