A small atelier on Main Street where wedding gowns, prom dresses and the finest labels in your closet are altered by hand, with patience, and with a smile waiting at the door.
Isabella fits every garment on you, pins it herself and sews it herself. Nothing leaves the shop until it sits the way it should.
Lace, beading, boning, bustles and layers of tulle. Isabella takes gowns in, lets them out, shortens hems and trains, reshapes necklines and adds bustles, so you can move, sit, dance and breathe on the day.
Bridesmaids & mothers of the bride tooSequins, satin, slits and straps that need to stay put all night. Hems for the right heels, bodices taken in, straps shortened. Last minute happens, so call and ask what is possible before the big night.
Homecoming, galas & quinceañerasSuits, trousers, jackets, dresses and denim. Sleeves and hems, waists taken in or let out, tapering, zippers and repairs. The small changes that make good clothes feel like they were made for you.
