  • Hello friends! Today's video is very exciting because it's my first sewing vlog where I show a little more about what my typical day as a professional tailor looks like! You got to drive with me to work, eat lunch, and get some sneak peaks of other jobs I had to do during this busy time. However, the main pinnacle of this video is the beautiful wedding dress that I got to alter. I hope you were able to still learn some sewing techniques and found my day interesting! If you'd like to see more wedding dress content, please let me know. Also comment below if you'd like to see more vlogs as a tailor! If you enjoyed this video, please don't forget to like, comment, share, and subscribe. Your support means the world to me!

    I’m Interested in altering wedding gowns, as well as evening dresses. Also how to work with sequin dresses/clothes. Maybe you should do a series on it? 🤔
    I enjoy your videos and they have motivated me to learn alterations. 😃

    Keep doing the wedding gown videos. Every tip is so helpful for us. Love the use of the chain stitch off the serger. Brilliant. Love the pearl accent. I just tell my brides to feel for the clear backer button. Love your videos. Your talent really shines.

    Lovely. I feel like I can’t be as productive with clients coming in an out. Now I only see clients by appointment, but people still show up non stop. I love when I can get a lot done, but that happens late in the day.

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  2 роки тому

      Yes! Me too. I should have mention that the next day I stayed until late in order to be productive. I have to do it on high season. Cheers 🙂

    I'm so terrified to touch other people's nice items. I'm so scared I'll mess something up, even if it's something I know how to do like embroidery. Any tricks you have to get over those fears and actually not mess anything up? I appreciate you. You're so good at your job!
    "I don't want to ruin this dress so much!" That's always my thoughts lol

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  2 роки тому +1

      I have to confess that I'm equally terrified by it. My colleagues too. I pray for good results more often than I want to admit. I've even expressed that in some videos. Take it easy, go little by little and, before you realize it, you are doing big jobs. But I think the fear won't go away and it's good to have it. It means you care. Cheers 🙂

    I noticed a red dress form in your studio, and I'm curious: What brand is it? And if you'd recommend it?
    Also, you said you're interested in what your audience would like you to cover. I would LOVE to see the actual fitting. The whole thing, process, which brand of pins/notions, tips along the way. You have a way of l explaining so it makes sense to me. Thank you!!
