Fall/winter fashion

Dress Makeover

I'm super excited about this dress. Remember this was the winter white dress I bought at Goodwill for $1.96! The style was nothing great, heck it was a size 24!

 

After deconstructing most of the dress, resizing it and making some major adjustments, such as bust placement, waistline, and hem length it looks like a completely different dress. I love how well it fits now. I wish I took photos of the process but this was almost a 2 month project in between everything else that was priority.

What to you think?

I'm now on the hunt for more dresses to make over! I'm so in love with this style and the fabric is amazing, I can see this dress becoming a staple that I can wear all year round!

Vintage Themed Wedding

 One of the bridesmaid, I had previously done her sisters' alterations for her wedding dress. I love when clients come back for something else! It means I'm doing my job and well!

This was a fun bridal party to work with for sure, hello full swing 50's style bridesmaid dresses in a cotton blend. Heaven! Not one bias, chiffon, silk, beaded dress in sight! 

I resized all three of the bridesmaid dresses and adjusted the bodice for the wedding dress as well. They went to Las Vegas for this wedding and I bet it was quite a party! 

Skirt Challenge Wrap Up...The End

This is the wrap up of the Skirt Challenge. It was a really fun experience, there were a few days it was cold and I didn't want to wear a skirt or dress, but add some leggings or knee high socks and I was fine.
