i heart my little alterations lady. not only does she know what she's doing (she was a seamstress for chanel for 10 years!)..but she's also fun to go to ... it's just like visiting my grandmother..complete with kisses on my cheeks (only with a thick italian accent that is sometimes hard to understand)..anyway..the point is..she rocks...and i'll show you why..
when i first picked out my dress, i wasn't exactly crazy about the little belt. it was cute, but i wanted something else..this became less a priority over time and it did look good with my fh's suit:
but my little italian seamstress said no way was she going to let me walk down the aisle with that ugly thing..so she made me this:
eek! isn't that so much better?! i pick it up next week!
moral of the story...trust a good seamstress.

yep that's much prettier!
Love this!!!
I love it. It looks much more "put together".
WOW! It really does look so much better than the other one! Momma mia!! Molta bella!
if we lived anywhere near the same city, I'd be stalking your seamstress and begging her to build me a gown.
oh la la! I love the tone on tone! It's going to look so beautiful with your flowers.
A good seamstress is like having a fairy godmother that can make you taller and thinner and look more fabulous all that the same time. :)
