Abby got married last September and looks incredible in her Altered gown! We did some work taking in the sides of the dress and adjusting the bodice to fit better. We also added a bustle to the train to allow her to move around her reception easier and not trip over the stunning lace of her train.

Meghan is looking absolutely š„ in her wedding dress!!!
Alterations we made to the dress included hemming, adding a bustle but most of all adjusting the shoulders and shortening the sleeves!
The sleeves themselves had to be almost entirely removed from the shoulders to be able to bring down the slope of shoulders while also removing a bit of the width of the shoulder span to achieve this fit.
What project should we tackle next?

Blushing bride š„°
Kayla walked down the aisle last week in an Altered gown and looks stunning!
When Kayla brought her dress in she needed the hem shortened, the back taken in through the bust and waist, and we added an incredible invisible bustle to the train to make it magically disappear (see the last photo)!
After all that, the dress suits her beautiful and shows off her natural beauty. Best of wishes to the new couple as they start a new journey together!

Another happy bride!
Lauren couldnāt find the dress of her dreams so she asked to have one altered to be everything she hoped for!
The major changes to the dress included adding a panel to the front neckline to change it from a plunging to v-neck gown. The second major alteration was making custom sleeves for the dress which were then sewn to the existing spaghetti straps.

Dress ā”ļø Midi Skirt (flip through to see the transformation!)
This client didnāt like the way her dress looked on her and decided it would be better as a skirt so we chopped off the top.

This dress needed to be hemmed, taken in on the sides, bra cups replaced, bustle added, straps shortened, and some unruly skirt lining tacked down.
Now itās done and ready for big day!

looking stunning on her big day with her Altered gown!
This was one of the hardest and most creative bustles to make purely on account of the train being roughly double the size of a regular train.
We made it happen with some creatively placed and hooks and gave Sarah the ability to actually dance in the dress.
