Working with formal wear is my passion and has been my primary focus for over 30 years.  My attention to detail, a discerning eye and exceptional expertise are the resources I use to make each and every gown perfection.

 

My Desire

No matter the occasion, wedding, pageant, prom, my focus is to achieve a beautiful fit and to help you feel confident in your gown.  It does not concern me about where you purchased your gown or even the condition a vintage dress may be in, what I do find important is knowing you will feel comfortable, confident and special once all alterations are completed.   

My Experience

I believe my unique experience sets me apart from others.  I have been sewing all my life being taught the basics from my mother at a very young age.  I was formally trained during college, obtaining a Bachelors of Science degree from Jacksonville State University but the ultimate experience came from real life, working with countless brides, bridal parties, prom girls and pageant contestants. I am also a member of the Association of Sewing and Design Professionals, Stitched Collective and other professional networks.

I have designed and constructed many special occasion garments and even have had a line of pageantry dresses selling in 5 different southern states called Irresistibles.  Now my focus is on custom fitting and styling.  I believe this is an important need since the majority of clients purchase their dresses from retail outlets.  

My Goal

Every woman deserves to look her very best during the special events of her life.  My goal is to make that dress enhance the woman causing the real beauty from within to explode in confidence.
