One of a Kind
photo by Hannah Pickle
We begin with a sketch...
Use the New Client Form to tell me about what you have in mind for your special day. With this inspiration I'll sketch a few designs for us to decipher the look that feels uniquely you.
.
Once we agree on the design, I'll sew a sample dress in cotton muslin for you to try on, perfecting the fit and silhouette. This is the first of 3 fittings.
.
Our second fitting is in your dress's actual fashion fabric. You'll begin to see the look coming together as we make minor alterations before adding any embellishment or details such as lace appliqué or beaded.
.
The third fitting is good time to bring along any friends or family whom you'd like to be a part of this special experience. This is your salon moment! Don't forget your shoes. I'll mark your hem and move to complete the final details of your one of a kind dress.
