Michelle was truly a miracle for me to find. I recently moved to the area and had no leads or referrals for any places to take my wedding dresses for alterations. My first meeting with Michelle I could tell she was the right person. She knew all the things we would need to do beyond what I had thought of. She quoted me a price and promised it wouldn’t change unless I wanted to do something drastically different from what we discussed. After just a couple fittings it was all ready to go! She even helped me vacuum bag it for my suitcase since I was getting married out of state. I will always recommend Michelle to anyone I know! She truly was the miracle I needed.

I was very very pleased, I got my prom dress super last minute and I texted her asking if she would be able to alter my dress and get it back to me within the same day. She responded to my text very fast and said she would be able to and the dress turned out beautiful. I would definitely recommend going to her!

Michelle is very professional about her work and encourages customers to express feelings and honest opinions. THANKS MICHELLE FOR BEING A GENUINE PERSON 🙏 💜💐

I so wanted to give this a higher rating. She is nice and lovely, very personable, but I wish I had read further into past reviews when making my decision. I didn’t even want to write a review but others could see how disappointed I was with what I received, that they and I felt this information should be made public.
A very important garment was rushed in a few weeks (more like days) before it was needed for the event, when we had met several months prior in preparation. I was told many things about how the process would go, that just did not happen. Multiple last minute reschedules, last minute rushed fixes, and hundreds of dollars later, only to not be fully satisfied with the product and left with no other option because my time had been wasted. The product felt so rushed that days before the event, someone else had to make emergency fixes to it. It breaks my heart a bit as this was a sentimental piece, and I wouldn’t want someone else to go through this. I hate that I blame myself for not speaking up more, and I still received compliments on the garment, but I only wish I was given more honesty about timeline and capability of accomplishing what I was asking for.

Michelle is awful. I would recommend you stay clear away from her. My daughter in law was having her convert my wedding gown for her. She gave her a $400 deposit. She then cancelled on my daughter in law three times. We decided to pick up the dress and go else where as we were nervous she would not have the gown done in time. When we picked it up she would not give us the $400 deposit back. She had done NOTHING TO THE DRESS. I pray Karma comes her way as she treats her clients awful. Do not use her. And tell all of your friends!!!

Michelle used her outstanding talent altering my wedding gown. As a 60+ bride, I was able to wear a gown with pride. She was very accommodating and easy to work with.

Omg where do I start, I had purchased my gown and then list 2 dress sizes long before my wedding, so I searched for a wedding dress designer who also does alterations… then enter Mi belle Rene Designs.. she worked a miracle on my dress, creatively and uniquely adjust my dress.. she is the sweetest my professional person I have met.. I also utilize her with other alteration etc.. If I could give her 10 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would.

AMAZING, TALENTED, MIRACLE WORKER!!!! Michelle was wonderful to work with when it came to my wedding dress. Naturally as a bride giving your dress to a stranger can be extremely nerve wracking, however Michelle has an amazing way of making you feel so at ease and comfortable throughout the whole process. She was extremely receptive throughout all the consultations, as well as prioritized the importance of my comfort above all else. My dress was no easy feat I'm sure as it was a 26 point bustle but after doing all of those, taking multiple layers out, and hemming multiple parts, the price she charges was extremely reasonable and affordable. And the best part is that she kept the full integrity of the original design that you wouldn't even notice how much was adjusted!!! AMAZING SEAMSTRESS 10000% recommend!

Michelle was a life saver! I needed my dress for a wedding taken in and shaped a bit better in a very short timeframe, and she did her magic! She was so sweet and fun to work with. Her pricing is very reasonable for the quality of work. Will 100% be using Michelle again 🩵

TLDR: Don't get a dress from her if you have a deadline and don't want to be stressed out.
I was married in November 2023. I had started talking to Michelle about possibly creating a dress for my themed wedding in December of 2022. She was pleasant to talk to and seemed excited for the idea. We met in June to make the deposit and sign the contract. She was to construct my wedding dress, my bridesmaids dresses and groomsmen shirts. She said my wedding dress would be easy since it was more garb than formal dress. I wasn't a fan of the bodice material she showed me because I didn't want white in my wedding dress. She said it was easily dyed, so I agreed to it. A deposit was paid and she would get to work on getting the fabrics and get back to me in about a week with the sketches.
All of July I messaged her biweekly asking for the sketches or progress report with no response.
August I got no response till my mother called her. Then she responded finally telling me she had family health issues and she is sorry.
Mid August I asked about setting up times in September. She responded she was traveling and would get back to me. She didn't. When she did finally get back to me she assured me I have not been forgotten and my fabrics were arriving. She also mentioned she had a lot to juggle in life at the time. By this time my maid of honor had been messaging her asking her to be more professional and stop ghosting me. Michelle asked me to reassure my maid of honor that I was being taken care of.
Early September she got the measurements, but I also found out she hadn't ordered the fabrics in a timely manner and was no longer able to get the fabric she was going to used for my dress and groomsmen shirts so she had to change that out. It wasn't that different than the original fabric so I just went with it. What happened to ordering fabric in June?
Mid September, she asked to set up a fitting in mid October. Back and forth finding times that worked for everyone, including Maid of Honor flying from the west coast. Date and time is set. October 18 she messaged saying she had a death in the family and she needed to cancel the appointment. That she understands it's stressful but she will have my wedding attire completed on time. I asked if I can at least get pictures of what she has completed since I still don't know what anything looks like. She said she already left and can't do pictures but she has a game plan and will share it with me when she gets back.
End of October, I asked for the game plan and updates. She doesn't respond for days. Then, one day she asks to meet. When I arrived she told me she doesn't want my MOH contacting her anymore because she feels pressured and stressed by her. I agree with her so she doesn't stop. It's far too late for a backup plan at this point. She also said she doesn't do sketches, despite promising them in contract and text.
Everything ended up being "finished" November 9. My wedding date was November 12. No one had a final fitting. My bodice that I didn't want to be white was never dyed and she told me the vendor lied and it wasn't dyable. The bridesmaids dresses were not what we discussed. They were the right colors but not designed as we planned. The grommets in my bodice kept falling out and my husband spent a lot of time in the late hours before our wedding day replacing them. The lacing she provided for the bodice did not cover my chest and we had to go out and buy other options last minute to fit my dress. We kept the original shoestring she provided on the shoulders. They frayed and looked bad before the wedding was even over.
As you can see in the pictures, the dresses and shirts do not look bad, but they are not what we discussed. My bouquets had to be changed last minute to add white to tie in the white I never wanted in my dress. She also didn't put any pockets in my dress ev

Michelle is so sweet and did an amazing job altering my wedding gown. My dress was perfect. My original alterations plans fell through, so i reached out to her and she took great care of me right away. Highly recommend Michelle!
