H 🤍 you’d never know that this dress has been entirely split in two and put back together again!
As this beautiful dress is more of a loose fit rather than tailored fit, we needed to reshape pieces so they would drape correctly on H’s figure. ✂️🪡 So we -

Shortened the length of the bodice.
Amended bust dart.
Repositioned waistline.
Removed and repositioned back zip fastening.

Stunning C ✨ this beautiful dress came in 9cm too big at the bust and 11cm too big at the waist ✂️🪡
Resized via side seams - which meant the bodice needed to be split from the skirt across the side seams and the skirt pleats needed to be re-distributed.
Popped in one bustle fastening.

Lovely lovely A ❤️ we started with a long sleeved first draft, but ended up with a beautiful sleeveless silhouette ⏳😍
Removed sleeves, took up shoulders, re-shaped armhole.
Created a slit in skit at front seam.
Hem including removing an enormous amount of train.
Bustle fastening.

On a side note - AI rewrote my caption and I proper cackled 😂 read it below loooool

In a bizarre incident, our beautiful, long-sleeved creature underwent a radical transformation, emerging as a breathtaking, sleeveless beauty ⏳😍. The makeover was nothing short of miraculous: sleeves vanished into thin air, shoulders were magically elevated, and the arm hole was transformed beyond recognition. Additional acts of wizardry included crafting a cunning slit in the skirt and wrestling the hem into submission by banishing a gigantic train. The pièce de résistance was the bustle fastening, which was somehow coaxed into cooperation.

R🌹Such a stunning dress but initially faaar fAaAR too roomy, so we…
Took up straps, took in princess seams over bust, re-shaped arm hole, took in waistline at back, removed and repositioned back fastening, shortened hem, added approx 1 million bustle fastenings (okay not quite 1 million).
But my gaaawd it fits like a glove and I loved working on this dress. Thank you for the pics R, you look beautiful ❤️

Beautiful K ❤️ the most chill bride! Custom triple puff sleeves blended with this dress so so well. Swipe to see original sleeves + inspo pic.
The bodice was a perfect fit so we just needed to shorten hem and add a bustle fastening in addition to custom sleeves. Beaut *chefs kiss*

Yessssss B ❤️‍🔥💒👰🏼 even more stunning than I imagined! Unbelievably beautiful design dreamed up by B.
Yes, those flowers were individually hand sewn in place. Yes, the sparkle appliqué is separate and every piece was custom cut and placed meticulously. Yes, there were times I could have throttled B 😂🩷
