Vintage Redesign

This gown is silk charmeuse with an insert of silk tulle netting. The bride also had me create a custom gown for their rehearsal dinner.

Vintage/Custom Redesign

This is a 1930s slipper satin gown that had sleeves and a very long train. I took off the sleeves and cut down the neckline, retaining the smocking, and custom made a jacket using the original sleeves from the dress and the large train. The hand braided trim was originally on the dress which I then applied to the jacket.
 — "Wearing it was like a dream - I never wanted to take it off...."
