  Today was my first dress fitting - I came alone and honestly was quite nervous about the fitting. And everything wedding - there is always a checklist and a hiccup, if you will, but not here!
  Today I met Ali!
  Such a wonderful aura she gives. Her classy etiquette and warm professional demeanor eased my nerves and left me feeling like a bride should, stunning 🤩 !
  Thank you! I look forward to working with you in the upcoming days before i say “I do”.

  I truly cannot say enough good things about Ali! She is the most calming and wonderful person for starters, which is very helpful when you’re trying to make decisions on your wedding dress! She is so detailed and careful and listens without making you feel silly when you realize you’re being crazy and harping on the wrong things. I am so so grateful she was recommended I couldn’t imagine going through this process with anyone else. I can’t wait to go back for my final fitting and see the full vision come to life! She is just the best and I leave every appointment feeling so confident that everything will turn out perfection. Seriously make sure to book her if you need any alterations or tailoring. She is IT.

  Ali is AMAZING! She was so patient with my mom and I while we figured out exactly what we wanted to use the lace for from her dress. She was super thoughtful and helpful when making a decision. We made a beautiful robe with lace cutouts on the back!
  I had also mentioned I was having a hard time fining a veil and Ali custom made me one offering so many lace options, mock ups. Veil lengths and more! She was so kind and truly cares about each and every one of her customers! If you get the opportunity to use her I highly highly recommend

  Ali was incredible to work with from the first meeting I had with her. She helped me bring my vision to life and you can tell she truly loves what she does. She looked at the work like an artist in front of a canvas, and made me feel like I was working along side her to create a work of art. She created custom sleeves for me that got so many compliments I lost count, and created the most perfect veil when I was unsure even where to begin with it. She also always made sure I was comfortable in the dress and added what she needed to keep me comfortable on the day. Towards the end of the alteration experience, the week before my wedding, she realized before I even did that something wasn't quite with the veil, and apologized so profusely. She offered to come to my house to deliver my dress with the veil fixed and it was perfect.
  
  The day of my dress was comfortable, beautiful and flowed so well, I didn't want to take it off at all.
  
  Working with Ali was a delight and would highly recommend and trust her with any work that reaches her talented hands.

  Where do I begin? First, I highly recommend Ali. She truly is a pleasure to work with and has incredible talent. She put together my inspiration and I still can not stop thinking about the dress she made for me for my son’s wedding . It was beautiful in every way.
  Second, Ali is very accommodating and is true to her time frame. She will make sure the dress is ready in a timely fashion.
  I can’t wait to see what dress Ali will make me next! I just love working with her.

  Ali with Made by Anatomy was incredible to work with- she turned my mom's wedding dress into a jumpsuit for my April 2025 wedding. I wore the jumpsuit for my rehearsal dinner as planned, then unplanned- I loved it so much and it was so comfortable that I changed into it during my reception.
  In an industry that provides exceptional customer serivce, Ali stands out. Her warmth and creativity amazed me at every appointment. She worked within my budget, I appreciated how she provided different options and transparent pricing that I could pick and choose from to make sure I felt comfortable with each decision.
  Thank you Ali for making one of my most special wedding dreams come true!

  I am so glad I came to Ali for the restoration of my grandmother’s dress and vintage linen little white dresses! Her hard work and determination made this process so worthwhile! I felt like truly came out perfect and I loved how her custom beadwork allowed the dress to have a personalized touch while still remaining true to the original. Ali took tremendous care into removing the staining from the original beading after over 60 years of storage and restoring it to perfection!

  10000000000000000/10 experience with Ali. If you live in Buffalo or the surrounding areas, please choose Made by Anatomy for your wedding dress alterations. My dress was perfect and I had custom made gloves that were perfect. <3 Cannot recommend enough! Ali made me feel like a queen.

  I connected with Made by Anatomy to do some semi-custom work on my wedding dress last year. From my first meeting with them, I knew I had made the right decision. Ali (the owner) and her team are super kind, encouraging, patient, and willing to find a creative way to execute your vision. I liked how Ali, as a designer, was able to accept more challenging requests, beyond alterations. Ali also used her design background to make really considerate recommendations that supported my vision along the way.
  
  I also opted for the Day of Concierge service and it was one of the best things I did to ensure the day ran smoothly. Made by Anatomy steamed a number of outfits, giving everyone back much needed time. When it came time for outside photos, Ali styled my dress, making sure it was placed nicely, and when we were done, she cleaned all the dirt off my train so it was spotless for my ceremony. Above all else, she was a positive, calm energy that every girl would love to be around on a busy day!
  
  Made by Anatomy are professionals and lovely to work with. I would choose them again and have recommended them to family and friends.

  Ali and her team are experts at their craft. I’ve known Ali for quite some time in the bridal industry and when I couldn’t find what I was looking for in a cape from anywhere, I knew I had to go to Ali. Ali not only made me a custom cape that fit everything I wanted, she also fixed my wedding dress.
  
  I had some botched alterations and she graciously fit me in with only a little over a month to my wedding. I cannot thank Ali and her team enough for the immense care they gave to my dress, my cape, and of course to me.

  Ali truly made me feel like royalty in my dress! She brilliantly brought to life several of my ideas for slight alterations, surpassing even my wildest dreams. In my gown, I felt both at ease and stunningly beautiful. I would wear it every day if I could.
