Carmen

Carmen brought in her moms gown from 1974. It was in really rough shape. She did not think it was possible to be salvaged in any way, let alone be made into a wedding gown. I was able to take all the lining from the inside of the gown and use that as lining for a new gown that I made for her. She wanted a very specific style of gown. She brought me a lace dress that she loved because of the lace. I deconstructed the lace and used those pieces to create the pieces for a completely new gown. Using new satin, the lace pieces, and her mothers lining, I constructed a brand new gown according to her specifications. The final result was just amazing. The family was so surprised that this project turned out so beautifully.
