The most current Marti Kaye project,
she's loved this dress forever, so for
prom we changed a few things and
she got to wear it.  CUte!








This started off as a Fabulous sequin
covered Mermaid dress.  it ended up as a
Fabulous Flouffy short dress that everyone
LOVED!  
                                                  This little Green Dress         
                                                    was great when it was        
                                                    long,  but it  was                  
                                                    super-cute        
                                                  after I cut it  off!
















Marti Kaye's dress was
plain white, we red beaded it and
put a red lining under the
circle cut skirt - With a slit !

This is the Prom and Homecoming Page, with a pageant project or two thrown in.  I had to
make an entire page for these, it was too much for the wedding section.  

As you can see, I handle all kinds of hems, straps, beaded dresses that are too big, too
little, too long, and some that were never intended for that person to wear it.  I customize
and remake dresses and formalwear outfits.
I make custom sashes for pageants,  
homecomings or any other occasion
you might need one for.  This 2 color
sash of satin is embroidered in silver
with the year and Title.  These are
labor intensive with color border and
angled at the top so it fits nicely on the
shoulder. Any color, any words.              
                          $60.00
Back is plain, single color.  
The gold pin on your left
marks how too BIG this
dress was, so we cut the
zipper out to the waist and
made it lace up. TOTALLY
DIFFERENT DRESS!
 
After
During
This beaded/sequined dress wouldn't zip and I
couldn't get it under the machine to sew loops on it -
to make it lace up.  So I hand sewed strips across the
back and sequined them to make the pattern look
continuous. I left the zipper in, and it looked great!  
This dress was way too
small, so we opened it up
with lace up. I still had to let
it out on the sides because  
It needs to be able to zip to
the waist!
Both of
these
dresses
were
purchased at
Nearly New
Consignment
These little Sherry Hill dresses had to be
taken up on the sides, so the beadwork
pattern HAD to be matched.  The left pic,  
reverse halter strap, which I made out of
the hem because I had to cut if off too.  It
was precious and stayed up!
This Prom dress had a
Fabulous train that she
didn't want to drag on the
ground all night.  We used  
 3 hooks to bustle it,  
arranging the black and
tiger stripes to both be
seen.  After prom, this
dress had NO damage to
the train.
Before
Same problem,
different pattern,
can't even tell it
was altered.
This awesome pink dress
was many sizes too big
and too long.  We made
it fit AND she climbed up
there and led the band!!
This Gold dress didn't
zip so I made Flat straps
to go across the back  
using flat hooks - It was
WONDERFUL!! The
straps mimicked the
folded layers of Lame'
on the bodice AND
allowed a size 0 to be
worn by a size 4!!  
 Custom homecoming Dress.

This one I made, with beadwork
at each billow.   
Custom Homecoming Dresses
for the Princesses. Both silver,
trimmed in Burgundy.  One
chose a circle cut ballroom
skirt with a jacket, the other
chose silver tulle with
burgundy satin trim to match
the sash was just beautiful.   
This is my custom Prom dress for 2010. Camo,
billowy skirt, hunter orange sash, chocolate
brown halter top. This turned out SO CUTE!   
I found this picture of Tessa and
baby Jovie, back in our store in
Boardwalk Village.  
This is the only picture we could
find for this dress.  Anything not
determined by  the picture, we just
did the way  we wanted, like flare
of skirt, lowness of  halter back,
etc.
When I say that I
do Emergencies,
I'm not kidding.
And you never
know where one
is going to occur.
I took a needle
and thread to
Homecoming,
Good Idea!
