I want to thank both Angela and Kimberly from the bottom of my heart for being so wonderful. Even though I was based overseas in Asia, Angela was with me every step of the way through email from my very first inquiry, to eventually purchasing the dress. She was patient, reassuring and helpful as she […]

This Vera Wang Macy wedding dress is absolutely amazing! The silhouette of this gown is sexy yet elegant. This gown comes in its own Vera Wang garment bag.
“Ivory V-neck sleeveless lace mermaid gown with hand appliquéd Chantilly lace accents and guipure lace back. The ‘Macy’ is a very soft, really sensual, feminine Luxe dress. It really highlights all the different ways I played with texture in this collection through a collage of so many gorgeous varieties of lace. I used the mermaid silhouette as a way to combine the laces in an organic way. The body of the gown is made up of two types of laces: fern-patterned guipure lace on the back of the bodice, then pieced together with abstract corded rose lace the entire length of the front. I placed the corded lace very precisely so that the curves of the exaggerated roses hit the body in all the right places—as a delicate modesty piece at the neckline, and then as a subtle waist-defining element. As that rose lace floats down the top layer of the skirt, suddenly there’s a rich explosion of Chantilly lace accents, all hand-appliquéd onto tulle on top of a nude under layer. It’s a very multidimensional way of collaging the lace. With all the different ways for light to pass through these layers of the skirt, you have such an incredible depth of color tones. And all from such a simple palette of nude and ivory. This season many of my gowns feature a plunging V in the front and in the back. I really wanted to explore a new way of augmenting the shoulders, different from how a strapless gown would do it. I think having the lace-covered straps here is a wonderful way to accent the shoulders and back—the linear corded lace becomes a drawing against the skin. Everything about Macy is so soft, from the construction to the ethereal quality of the lace patterns—geometrically precise, yet still a totally romantic expression of lace.” – Vera Wang.

The Chapel is one of the campus’ iconic structures and a historic landmark. After the ceremony, guests were treated to the spectacularly beautiful ballroom at the exclusive Cosmos Club. Allison wore a gorgeous silk […]

Absolutely! Don’t limit yourself in choice by just looking at gowns in your size. Also, make sure to never go by the gown’s size tag, since bridal gowns usually run at least 1-2 sizes smaller than daywear sizes. Always compare your exact measurements to the measurements listed for each gown. Most gowns can be taken in one to two sizes to fit, occasionally three sizes. In addition, most gowns can be let out up to one size, depending on seam allowances in the gown. Do keep in mind that the original stitching lines may still show on some fabrics (especially satins) when seams are let out. Consult a professional bridal seamstress for custom results.
Ask other current or recent brides for their recommendations. Also, contact local bridal shops and fabric shops specializing in bridal and formal fabrics. These shops often know of bridal seamstresses in the area that specialize in custom bridal work. Another great place to find an experienced bridal seamstress is to join a blog group on the top wedding websites, such as Marthastewartweddings.com, theknot.com, or weddingwire.com. This is a fantastic place to receive honest feedback from brides that have already used a bridal seamstress in your area.
Most seamstresses will want to have your first fitting four to six months before the wedding. Of course, it will not take four months to alter your gown, but there are many gowns that need to be altered in that time frame, and you need to get your gown fitted and in line to be ready for your next fitting. Most of the time, only a first fitting and final fitting are required.
Occasionally, a third fitting will be needed for major changes.
Most brides will need a hem and a custom bustle for the train. The next very common alteration is to take in the bodice at the bust and/or waistline for the best fit. Charges will vary greatly depending on how difficult the alterations are (beads and lace involved, boning in the bodice, layers of skirt and crinoline to hem, etc.) and depending on your geographic location. Expect to pay anywhere from $75 to $500 for your basic alterations and possibly more if you have requested any special style changes to the original style of the gown.
Three to four weeks is a good time frame. This gives the seamstress a few weeks to do any final adjustments, if necessary. After your final fitting, be sure and maintain your weight within 3 or 4 pounds to assure the gown still fits you perfectly on your special day.
Your gown will need to be steamed or pressed or a combination of both and most seamstresses will offer this service. Also, many cleaners can do this for you, however, just be sure to take it to a professional cleaner specializing in bridal gown cleaning and preservation.
