History
Although I've been sewing and making garments since the 70's, My business took off through word of mouth around the year 1995. I started reworking and altering vintage garments and making the occasional wedding dress. By working with the amazing techniques that these older designer suits and gowns were constructed with, and through working closely with men and women of all shapes, sizes, and persuasions, AND through having quite a flair for the dramatic myself, Ive been able to help each client achieve that look that brings out their best features - that look that promotes who they really are and who they want to be best presented as. These factors have been beneficial for stage performers who need to look a cut above the rest, the bride and groom who want attire to express their most special of days, and anyone who wants something that actually fits their body and personality.
