"Victoria is an absolutely amazing seamstress and person!! If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. She has a very kind heart and has amazing problem solving skills when altering dresses. She recently did alterations on my sister's bridesmaids dresses, as well as my wedding gown.
I originally had my gown altered at a different seamstress in York, and had a very rough experience. I had it hemmed, bustled, lined in the bodice, a hook added to take the dress in around my waist, and had some lace added to the low neckline so it wasn't as revealing. The hem ended up being bluntly cut through the lace appliques, my dress was very heavy when bustled, the lining of the bodice was noticeably uneven, there was still gapping at the back of my gown where the hook was added, and the lace added to the front was bulky and fuzzy from being removed and put back on multiple times (plus it wasn't how I originally explained and envisioned). The previous seamstress did a very poor job with everything, and tried to make it seem like steaming it would fix most of the problems!
I live out of state, and flew in a week before my wedding to get everything ready. Victoria was able to see me the Monday before my wedding, and quickly fixed my gown's issues (and more!!) by Thursday. She fixed the lining that was uneven, redid the lace in the neckline, fixed the hem and made the lace look more finished, changed the bustle so it was distributed more across my back making it less weighted, and she added in boning and elastic so the gown fit me better. She also made little changes to the bust that had a HUGE impact on the fit! Victoria did an absolutely outstanding job on my gown and saved my wedding day. I can't thank her enough for the work she put into fixing my dress, and I will recommend her to anyone who needs dress alterations.
Victoria is truly the best!!! ♥️ Thank you so much!!" - Emily R.
