Casablanca Alterations!!!

I recently purchased a used Casablanca 1856 gown. I was slightly concerned about alterations because I've heard Casablancas are tough and it has a scalloped lace bottem and it need shortened. (I am 5'3!) I plan on doing that and the straps need fixed to lay right on me. (they are beaded) and I MIGHT get the back changed to lace up instead of zipper.



I was wondering if anyone knew of a good tailor who can do this in the Chicagoland area. (I am from SW Suburbs but I will travel to an extent.) 

Thanks!

Re: Casablanca Alterations!!!

  • I had a BM dress altered at Ms. Couture on Clybourn in Lincoln Park. They did a great job & I think they specialize in wedding dresses. They might even do a free estimate if I remember correctly.
