Alteration pricing
Informational price list
Each alteration is priced by the garment area it affects. These figures help you judge scope before you message me for an exact quotation.
Hems
Hem adjustments
Shortening or lengthening the hem, including layered and beaded skirts, priced by hem style and fabric weight.
Bustles
Bustle work
Discreet bustle installation so the train lifts cleanly for the reception, with the number of loops set by the gown's construction.
Bodices
Bodice and neckline
Structural bodice work, including take-ins, lace reshaping, and neckline adjustments, quoted after a fitting to assess the boning and seams.
Fitting milestones
Three checkpoints to the final fitting
01
Be ready for the fitting
You will need to bring all undergarments you are planning to wear with the dress at the wedding day, also the shoes you will wear with it.
02
Initial pin fitting
We pin the gown on your body to mark every adjustment needed and confirm the structural bodice work before any stitching begins.
03
Final collection
A second fitting will be done at the time of pick up to make sure the fit is perfect.
