A bride ordered the style shown below in white but needed 3/4 length sleeves and wanted to know if we could add a detachable train. I knew the seamstress had done some amazing remakes so I told her we could and ordered extra fabric.
I was so excited to see how the dress was transformed with 3/4 length sleeves.
The back with the matching waist pleating.
The pleating unhooks to reveal snaps for attaching the detachable train.
The full backview with the lovely train.
I was so anxious for the bride to see it I made these pictures to e-mail her before I shipped it. She was a pretty laid back bride to let someone remake her dress without seeing how it would turn out! Obviously, she was pleased with it!
Good seamstresses are a dying breed. If you have the slightest interest in sewing you should seriously consider learning to sew and do alterations. It is a rare skill that pays well.
