Ashley

Bridal / Restyling / Vintage

Ashley found this sweet 1950s wedding dress at Xtabay for her wedding at the Enchanted Forest. It was a little tight around and couple inches longer than she wanted, but overall, she loved the dress. She came to me because she wanted to restyle the itchy lace collar, adding her own personal style.


Alteration Details

Removed original collar and used that fabric to add godets at sides to expand through the ribs and waist. Adjusted darting at bust; designed new peter pan style collar, replacing original bow and adding three buttons down front; hemmed multiple crinoline layers around
