custom dress?

Did anyone have a custom dress made? I need help finding someone to possibly take my mothers gown and make a cocktail dress for me out of it. Any suggestions?

I would just bring it to a seamstress in a local Dry Cleaners that you go to. Most of them are very very experienced seamstresses and will do an amazing job.

Actually I wouldnt go to a regular cleaners with that because you need someone whose specializes in that type of thing. I know 2 places that do customized dresses, dont know if they work on outside stuff but they are in Brooklyn.

I would caution AGAINST a local dry cleaner. When my sister got married, she brought my mom's wedding gown to a local dry cleaner and gave them very detailed instructions on what to do with it..... They MASSACRED it and now my mom's dress is ruined and my sister couldn't wear it

I got a customized dress for my wedding. I worked with April Designs, Ebay and worked with the tailor Jeff Liu. He was amazing! Pics are found in my album- For Sale. He made a replica of the Eve of Milady gown from 06 collection, a strapless ballgown with gold embroidery and the beading and details looked gorgeous! I was so glad, I saved so much and not have to fork 1K for a wedding gown. Contact info can be found on my wedding review.
