How to Pin Your Skirts and Dresses for Hemming

For pencil pleat and straight garments only.

Fold your skirt or dress to the desired length and pin it in place.

The folded edge is where your new hemline will be. Above the knee, above the ankle or to the floor.

Remember for full length garments, the type of shoes you wear will affect the desired length.

Once you’re all done, mail the garment back to Hems Online using the prepaid return postage bag provided.

A free welcome kit with pins, measuring tape and prepaid return bag can be requested here.
