    Christine made it such a seamless process. She is so very talented where we were able to take my mom’s 90s dress to a cute two piece top and skirt for an elevated reception look. I’m so beyond impressed with the final result and can’t wait to wear for my reception.

    Christine was wonderful to work with and truly made the process of up cycling my mother’s wedding dress from the 80’s so easy and enjoyable. She was professional, communicative, and did an incredible job bringing my vision to life. I ended up loving the dress so much I wore it for more occasions than I had originally planned. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering wanting to wear a vintage dress!
