Cheryl's wedding for October 22, 2011


I redesigned Cheryl's wedding dress. It was her mother's wedding dress from 1964.  She wanted to wear her dress, but it was too small so I had to enlarge the sides by getting the extra fabric from the bows and still have the same design. I also had to repair the lace and add beads. Cheryl's mother was taller than her so I had to shorten the sleeves and move the buttons up. And for Cheryl's mother, Lorraine, I added more pleats in front of her dress to look more fitted and lengthen the dress to cover her shoes to look slimmer and taller. I had a great time working with both ladies. I wish the best for Cheryl.
