If you’ve got a part of your body you want to disguise, we can. Equally if you want to flaunt the feature you’re most proud of we can absolutely do that too! It’s my mission to help you to realise your dream dress… a dress that you cannot wait to wear and that you don’t want to take off.
I know that leaving your wedding dress with a complete stranger who has a pair of scissors in her hand is a big deal but you don’t need to worry. I’ve lost count of the number of wedding dresses I’ve altered; gowns bought from designer bridal shops, outlets, the high street, online and even charity shops. It doesn’t matter to me where the dress has come from, it’s always super-precious and will be treated with the utmost care.
