Services
Jeans/trousers/pants too long or do you need a repair or refit done? Perhaps you’d like your favourite, best ever fitting, garment remade, or a specific piece of clothing made for a special occasion or just because. Made to Measure can help!
Whether adjusting your purchased ready to hang curtains or making bespoke custom-made curtains or cushions for your home you’ve come to the right place all made right here in Tasmania. Traditional gathered, pleated or S-fold/Wave fold drapes or sheers, unlined, lined using your choice of block out, the new eco lining or even bumph lining (used for thermal control, to dimmish noise or to add substance to lightweight fabrics such as silk or taffeta). Made using your own fabric or an inhouse selection of quality fabric choices. Contact me to discuss.
Pattern cutting is where the magic starts. Regina’s hands-on workshops empower aspiring designers and seasoned pros alike with the skills to transform a flat piece of fabric into a 3D masterpiece. With a focus on both practicality and innovation, our pattern cutting services and workshops are a masterclass in turning design dreams into wearable art.
A variety of classes will be conducted, by an industry expert with over 30 years of trade experience, around Hobart including Made to Measure Skirts, Pants, Bodice and Sleeve and how to make a pattern off your own favourite garment just to name a few. Classes cater for beginners with a basic knowledge of sewing who are keen to rebuke the fast fashion trend and take a more sustainable approach to their wardrobe by making well-fitting garments using clear and precise patterns.
What we do
When it comes to clothing at Made To Measure by Regina Neumann, we see every garment as an extension of the person wearing it. It’s not just about fabric; it’s about crafting a personal statement that’s meticulously designed and stitched to fit you like a second skin. Our custom dressmaking service ensures that you don’t just wear your clothes—you own them.
Our expertise doesn’t stop at your wardrobe; it extends right into your living spaces. Made To Measure offers custom curtains that do more than just block out the light. They add elegance, style, and a personalised touch to every room they grace. Just like our garments, every curtain is a bespoke creation designed to match your unique aesthetic.

About the Workshop
Join me for my Sew Anything Sessions where you choose whatever you want to create, mend, or alter with guidance provided in a small group setting. Just bring along your own machine/s and whatever project you’d like to finish or embark on. For garments, please wash your fabric before bringing it along to cut out as many fabrics will shrink, especially natural fibres.
If you are completely new to sewing, I will have some fabrics and ideas for you to start with at an extra cost.

About
I’m Regina Neumann. I am an educator and dressmaker living and working from here in Southern Tasmania.
My journey in the world of fashion and crafting is a bit like a colourful patchwork quilt – diverse and exciting.
I’ve had the privilege of wearing multiple hats in this industry. I’ve created everything from the cutest designs for Jolie Babies Wear to custom wetsuit patterns for the adventurous souls at KJ Watersports. I’ve not only developed and marketed my own fashion label and Lycra Bodysuits for Scuba Diver across Australia, Singapore, and South Africa but also added a touch of magic to the collections of Adele Palmer, Jag, Rusty, and Country Road.
When it comes to fabrics, I’m a bit of a connoisseur. Silk, leather, upholstery fabric – you name it, I’ve worked with it. My craft isn’t confined by materials; it’s fueled by creativity.
But, beyond my journey, I’m here to share my love for craftsmanship. I want to bring out the creative spark in you and make something truly fabulous together.
So, if you’re ready to dive into the world of bespoke creations, let’s have a chat, and we’ll start this exciting journey together!
