Heirloom Alterations Service

Some gowns come with as much sentimentality as fabric. Our heirloom alterations service is designed for brides who want to honor that history by reimagining a family gown into something that feels entirely their own. Our in-house alterations team have the expertise to thoughtfully assess and transform a mother's wedding dress or a vintage piece, preserving what makes it special while updating it to reflect the bride wearing it today. 

Contact your nearest shop for more information.
