Carole is amazing! She is quick to respond, communicative, and easy to work with. She explained everything she was doing, explained potential problems etc. She changed everything I wanted while also keeping the dress true to what I fell In love with.

I can't rave highly enough about Carole! She and her team are so so talented. They were able to hem, bustle, and take in my wedding gown (without altering the design) in a short time frame. My wedding dress would not have looked this good without her!

Working with Carole was a breeze and she was incredibly thorough and upfront about the pricing. When I received my dress from Miosa, the dress fit me, however Carole MADE the dress for me. It fit like a glove. Thank you so much Carole ?
