I brought my mother's 1980s wedding dress to Michelle in October 17. I had dreamed of wearing my moms dress on my wedding day but I had been having a hard time finding someone that could see my vision of preserving the dress' original look while updating it slightly and altering it to fit my frame. I had brought it other places and everyone I talked to just wanted to cut the dress up and leave me with a simple dress that very slightly resembled the original. This was heartbreaking for me. But when I brought my dress to Michelle her excitement and passion said it all. She listened to exactly what I wanted and worked tirelessly to make every part of the dress exactly what I wanted. She spent countless hours and many appointments working to place each peice of the puzzle in just the right place. She even met us at fabric stores to work with us to find just the right fabrics. She also made sure we never overbought as fabrics can be very expensive, especially lace. When it was all said and done the final product was beautiful. The dress was restored to it's original glory and my dream of wearing my moms dress on my wedding day was brought to life. Michelle was such an angel to work with and charged us a more than reasonable price for the hours of design and hand sewing that went into this dress. She gave us a flat rate and never once added on extra fees when challenges and changes came up throughout the process. I would recommend her to anyone needing dress alterations. Especially if you are making big changes to a dress. read more
