It's officially been one full month at the new location!

These lovely ladies were my first clients on "opening day". They were pinned at my former studio, but my first gals here on James Street. So they helped to christen the space!

I've been waiting to share until after their big days had passed.

I always feel so blessed to be even a small part of the exciting new chapters in people's lives. And now these amazing women are a part of mine ❤️

In order to better serve you, The Savvy Sewist has relocated!

I'm looking forward to working with my 2024 season brides in my newly updated studio.

On to new chapters!

It's mostly gowns here at The Savvy Sewist. But, occasionally I do get to help out with the suited looks for a wedding as well.

I really like this fun take on the classic button down shirt.

Through the years, some clients have gotten the inspiration from their fraternity days , and some from the military. I'm not sure of this trend's history, but I love the idea of it!

I think of it as a "mullet shirt". Business in the front, undetectable under a suit coat, and party in the back when the jackets come off!

The whole shirt gets deconstructed. Then I use the old pieces to create the pattern for the new. The cuffs are the most tricky. If you have ever set a button placket, you know what I mean 😊

P.s I did 4 shirts for this group in total, not all are my work and some are not shown.
