We celebrate so many wonderful things in this lifetime; engagements, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, the arrival of a child or grandchild, proms, graduations, and MORE, and the garments we wear and the gifts we give to honor these occasions MATTER... a lot. And nothing will make that occasion more memorable than gifting or being dressed in a custom designed piece. Nothing.
Mildred can create for you and yours:
Wedding Gowns
Mother of the Bride Dresses & Gowns
Prom Gowns
Formal Dresses
Suits/Sets
Christening Gowns
Baby Gifts and Garments
and
Custom Pieces for Your Wardrobe as well!
We price each job individually. We will talk about your goals and ideas, what types of colors and materials you would like to wear, and discuss your budget, and then Mildred will create a proposal based on what you discuss with her: if you want pockets, if you plan to lose weight, or if you have an important deadline, have all of this information ready at the time of our consultation so you can make sure we know all the details! Communication is KEY in this entire process.
Having a garment custom made for you is a unique service and takes approximately SIX to EIGHT weeks from the time we have fabric and materials in hand to delivery of your completed item.
That said, Mildred can work with shorter timelines if need be. Just keep in mind that expediting a project will have an added cost of 25%-50% of the total project cost, as will changing designs and other details as we work.
While collaborating with Mildred, you'll have the opportunity to select fabrics, colors, and style details that complement your taste and communicate your own unique style; classic or avant garde, she can bring your vision to life.
Once your dream garment begins to take shape, Mildred will work diligently to bring it to fruition, using the finest materials and exquisite attention to detail. Each stitch, seam, and tailored finish is executed with precision, ensuring a garment that stands the test of time and surpasses your expectations.
Forget the frustrating experience of combing through store racks, only to settle for ill-fitting clothes. Custom fit clothing is the epitome of luxury and self-expression, allowing you to showcase your true style in a way that is uniquely yours. And if you are having something made for to give as a gift, you can be sure that nobody else is going to duplicate your piece!
