Our approach combines experience, attention to detail, and an understanding that different garments require different kinds of care.

Exclusive Drycleaning & Tailoring is a family-run garment care business based in Islington, London.
With more than 50 years of combined experience, we understand that good garment care is about more than simply cleaning clothes — it's about understanding fabrics, construction, fit and condition.
That's why we take a considered approach, particularly when a garment is delicate, unusual or difficult to assess.
Learn more about us →Each piece is treated according to the fabric, construction and condition of the garment in front of us.
Silk, delicate fabrics, vintage pieces, embellished garments and items without care labels can require individual assessment before treatment.
Rather than treating every garment in exactly the same way, we consider the fabric, construction and condition before deciding how to proceed.
Prepared for the post
You don't need to be based in Islington. Message us first on WhatsApp with photos and details so we can advise before you send anything.
Ask About UK Postal Service →Four simple steps, from your door to ours and back again.
Tell us what garment you have and what you need. Send photographs through WhatsApp if helpful.
We'll explain the appropriate way to send your garment to our Islington workshop.
Where necessary, we'll assess the fabric, construction and condition before treatment.
Your garment is carefully processed and prepared for return.
A wedding dress is unlike an everyday garment. Lace, silk, embroidery, beading, delicate trims and structured construction can all require careful consideration.
Whether your dress needs cleaning after the wedding or alterations before the big day, we're here to help.
Certain garments can be unpredictable, particularly where care instructions are missing, the fabric is extremely delicate, the garment is aged, or specialist embellishment and construction are involved.
Where additional risks exist, customers may need to acknowledge and accept the relevant treatment risks before treatment proceeds.
