Has anyone ever had a leather skirt taken in?

How much did it cost? Did it look ok?

I bought a leather midi skirt off eBay. It's gorgeous, but just a smidgeon too big. Ideally I'd like it taken in just a tiny bit, but not sure if it's worth it.

Hi trixy check out local seamstresses and leather workers, it should not cost much at all. I have successfully taken in leather/suede skirts and a sheepskin body warmer, very sharp needles and strong thread is needed.

Thanks. I'm going to try the dry cleaners I use as they do alterations

Ooh I'm now wondering how easy it would be to get a leather jacket taken in. It's v soft leather but too big for me now.
