Prom season is in full swing. Thank you to all my regulars and their referrals to new cluents. Due to family medical needs, I am not able to accept any more alterations until after May first. After that i will be available for your alteration needs. Thank you for understanding. Note: the gowns I already have will be ready in time for you to dance the night away! Thank you, Karen.

What size prom dress should I get? Prom/Formal dresses are not sized like your every day clothing. For the best fit, measure your bust, waist and hips (Follow this video from Christine Johnson for help - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nfXawA5ie8r ) compare your measurements to the designers size chart - Each designer has a different formula to calculate sizes, especially those ordered from overseas. If in doubt or between sizes, order the next size larger - It is much easier to take in a dress, than to let out!

I love altering prom dresses! High school girls love themselves in their pretty dresses. It is an exciting time and there is a magic that no matter their height, their shape, they love it especially after altering the hem so they can swing around and makes the dress float and pull in the sides or adjust the breast and waist area, maybe some bones so they feel secure and stop tugging it up. They all glow! Ladies - keep that glow!
