Dress Maker in Southern California???

So, I have had my heart set on an amsale dress for quite some time now, but the price tag is way out of my league. I have found a few people online that will recreate the dress for a ridiculously low price, but I am nervous bc they aren't within driving distance, so I would be taking a serious risk. I would have to send the person my measurements and hope it turns out awesome. Have any of you done this?? Does anyone have a person they would recommend that could do it for a reasonable price? Also, do any of you living in and around LA know of someone around here that I could actually meet in person. Thanks so much ladies!! and Happy Planning!

  • You may try posting this on your local board (if you haven't already).  BTW - what is the style #? I'm not sure if you're adverse to buying a sample or pre-owned? There are a few sites out there.

  • I agree with PP, post this on your local, or consider buying a sample gown. If you haven't heard of bridepower.com, they stock designer samples (I got my Kenneth Pool for Amsale gown from their physical store) at huge discounts, and will even scour the country to find you a deal on a specific gown.

    Other options for resale of new or used dresses:
    bravobride.com
    preownedweddingdresses.com
    thegreenhangershop.com
    our own classifieds board.

    Good luck!
