Tailoring FAQ
What is the general timeline for bridal?
Depending on how much work needs to be done, bridal clients generally have 3-4 fittings total, usually 2-4 months before your wedding. For more extensive custom options, such as revamping a vintage wedding dress, this may be 3-5 fittings over a period of 4-6 months. Your last fitting will usually be about 2 weeks before your wedding.
I like to tailor bridal close to your wedding date so it fits you perfectly on your special day.
what sets you apart?
Clients have asked me to tailor incredibly technical gowns, including some that have been turned down by other tailors or had been altered incorrectly by a former specialist. I even have experience resizing gowns that are 2-3 sizes too large.
Before becoming a bridal tailor, I was a patternmaker for over seven years. As a patternmaker, I have a proven track record of creating high-end apparel patterns that are technically difficult & require a high amount of attention to detail, consistently delivering patterns and samples with a high level of accuracy.
