- Client needed alterations but her dress hadn't yet arrived 👀. So she didn't know what alterations she needed.
The dress finally arrived and this was what came vs what was ordered.
as far as dupes go, it wasn’t too terrible. But you made it stunning!
It was close 👌🏾. Just lower quality
I was coming here to say the same thing. 👍🏾 After the few alterations and having it STEAMED... she came out look pretty good for an "imitation" design!
You are THE fairy godmother
It's really amazing how a few alterations can take these dresses from zero to hero!
Exactly 💯
@@MondesThreadsYou made her knock off a knock out! And I bet you saved her plenty compared to what the original cost. #buyerbeware
You are so talented
Ma'am you are amazing
She really does an incredible job on the clothing she alters!! Zero to hero indeed!!! ,❤
You're a miracle worker because that Amazon dress was giving Glad bag
Yeah, cheap fabric always gives itself away for me, but people who don't sew don't know. For a sight unseen grab-bag cheapie, she really made it look like silk instead of polyester!
😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣Not glad bag 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️
That fabric was horrid. Thin and cheap and only good as lining for the inside of a garment, not the fabric that shows😵💫
Wow that was ugly.
Monde doesn't get mad... She gets glad!
Honestly, for an Amazon dress, this wasn't the worst. The alterations were phenomenal as usual.
Well the one things is, these people are sure gonna keep you in business. 😂 Great job as always!👍
You got that right! 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@MondesThreads Yup paycheck from the alterations and payment from youtube!
But I bet she knew what she got herself into. She knew it's gonna need alteration.
Rather than spending 750, she preferred to spend 100 + alteration fee.
Win-win solution.
Your ability to transform those cheap knock offs into something really stunning (that fits the client!) is amazing.
You did amazing ❤❤ The ‘before’ dress looked so flammable but the ‘after’ looked elegant.
How about we say the ‘before’ looked flammable but the ‘after’ looked FIRE 🔥?
Looking flammable is such an accurate description for these cheap dresses that get brought in 😂👌
I would like to see the before and after pictures with the client facing straight forward bc the front part under the waist line had sad looking construction. I see these examples as case studies where I can learn how to step up my sewing game. And as always beautiful work! Client looks so classy unlike the Amazon pics 😂
*I TAILOR* men's bespoke historical suits - I am always ASTONISHED what seamstresses can do...!!! I cant do that, I can make a perfect thing from scratch, but I CANT make good on someone else's mistakes.
*You did astonishing*
You continue to turn people's delusions into miracles. Always amazing work.
😂😂😂
My thoughts exactly. Sometimes I wonder if these gals are looking at themselves through a carnival mirror. You look at yourself and you are completely distorted. One minute skinny, one minute fat, head out of shape. They would save themselves a lot of hassle and money if they would just remember Monde frequently repeats. The body doesn’t come with the dress.
As I saw the dress as how it is supposed to be worn, then looked at this woman who bought it, I have several opinions here. 1. This is not a dress for a woman with this kind of figure. She has a boxy kind of shape which will not carry the dress as it is supposed to be worn. 2. She is also an older woman. Not appropriate for her to dress like this.
You’re a miracle worker. I love watching your before and afters!
Thank you ❤
I must admit, the original dress looked better than I expected. But you all were right. It needed alterations, & again, you did a fabulous job! 👏🏿
Well, I would say you did absolutely fantastic. I was holding my breath when you said the dress hadn’t arrived. Have to admit it wasn’t that bad…she was lucky. You made the dress spectacular.
You're not a seamstress, you're a magician! It looks beautiful!
You did awesome. I always had mad respect for seamsters, but especially with alterations, when you have to work with the fabric limitations that are already on the clothes etc. She looked gorgeous on that final shot and must have been so happy.
Amazing, as usual, Monde!!! It's just amazing what a great seamstress can do with just a few alterations to a dress. My grandmother on my mother's side was a great seamstress. She would see a dress in a store that she liked, go in, examine it, go home, layout newspapers, cut the pattern out, and make the exact copy of that dress!! It totally amazes me that she was able to do that for the people she serviced. Your friend, the Retired Paramedic in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
It's something I might look into, as I have always wanted clothes that fit my weird figure (skinny legs, no bum, boobs, small stomach and waist, and an abdomen that looks completely out of place on the rest of me...ooh and huge bingo wings from massive weightloss). I love clothes from the eras, where everything was tailored.
She could’ve brought her own fabric and had a dress made. The outcome is beautiful!
Her calling you before the dress even arrived is killing me 😂
When I saw the original photo of the dress that she received I thought that it wasn’t going to look good no matter what. It looks great! You did an excellent job. 😊😊😊
You are amazing. I use to do alterations but I found that people did not want to pay my worth so i stopped. One lady expected me to hem shirts she thrifted for $1-$1.50 because she only paid $3 for the shirt because she could not see paying more to have it altered than the item cost. Of course I had others that did pay well. I did an alteration on a dress the other day, the client paid my asking price and she loved it. First one since I stopped.
Wow! You totally transformed it. That's an amazing before and after. Heck, I wouldn't have thought it was even salvageable.
You always elevate these dresses wth your alterations and make them look ten times better.
You are a miracle worker. Funny she knew it was going to need work before she even got it. Good thing she watches your videos! It’s beautiful on her.
You worked another miracle! You made cheap looking fabric look beautiful!
The dress is pretty. Just needed the alterations, and you did a great job. There are many affordable dresses that are inspired by a popular designer. That's fine but they shouldn't false advertise with the designer picture. I think too much blame is being put in the purchaser than where it should be, which is with the seller.
You be saving lives out here 🫶🏾
You did a great job with that dress!
Our clothes should make us feel good, not make us nervous.
To all of the people commenting on this lady’s awesome sewing skills, it takes time, and patience to engineer fabric the way that she does. I’ve been sewing for clothes for years, and I’m still learning how to sew.
Considering how bad the dress was, this lady worked miracles on it. She really masters her craft!
Wow, you worked magic on that dress. From sad to stunning, great job!
I want to tell you how you have rocked my world, and my daughter's!!! I am a plus size queen with a small chest. And apparently, small arms. By watching you, I have learned so many tricks for altering more tailored tops. (Tee shirts and polos are gone!!)
My daughter is 20 yo, and is 4'10", 100 lbs, and very curvy. By watching your videos, I have been able to help her expand her clothing selection also!!! Your videos have been an incredible blessing to us both. Thank you SO MUCH!!!!
You are nothing less than a sewing magician!! 😊
Your talent blows me away! Love your videos! ❤❤❤❤ That dress turned out so pretty.
You are a sewing wizard!! From 100 to 750 in a few of your magic stitches! Amazing🎉
Your work is a reflection of your talent, and you slayed it yet again.
Miracle Worker!!! She looked fantastic. Your talent is amazing.
You did a fantastic job on the alterations! I'm impressed...and I've been making my own clothing for over 60 years! Kudos to you!
She actually looks better than I thought she would. I’ve never been a fan of the pointed top bodice. Just something about it that turns me off.
a pointy bodice makes it look like the wearer's boobs are angry to me 😂
I’m not a fan of that look either and it seems to be everywhere you look. Or if a dress is strapless and fits over “the girls” completely rather than looking like they are going to pop out at any moment, instead of following the line of the breast and make it more curved they are cut into a point. The whole look of the dress is ruined.
You work MIRACLES! Amazing.
You saved her dignity!
You are truly the "dress whisperer." It's amazing what you can do with alterations!
You did awesome. You saved her from disaster!❤️
You're thumbs up all the way on this one and the client was smart to anticipate from the start that a stunning fit often involves personal alterations.
You made a mess into a treasure. You are an amazing seamstress. ♥️
Of course, you did a fantastic job. 🤩 The Before looked like a slightly decorated trash bag. After looks magical! 😊😊👍👍❤
I find your alteration expertise superior. Congratulations on your success.
Your alterations knock it out the park each and every time! You take Amazon knock-offs and transform them into couture costumes. Another well done job!
It's nice to know that an independent craftsperson isn't being put out of business by online shopping. Keep up the great work!
It's actually keeping her IN business! You can't try anything on you buy on line.
Awesome! ❤ Excellent work! I know she must've felt so empowered in that dress.
For under a hundred dollars not bad. After you worked on it... Looks a lot like the designer dress. Excellent work.
Wow! I honestly wasn’t expecting a positive outcome because I figured it would be *somewhat* impossible to get the look she desired. Outstanding work.
Having any dress altered for your body makes all the difference. My husband bought me a designer dress from NY in the 90s. I had a great natural hr glass at the time. So to fit hips and bust it bagged at my 24" waist. The seamstress was amazing! she got it to fit like a glove with the strapless top staying up. I will always have mad respect for good seamstresses. That's why I love watching your videos.
WOW! It is gorgeous. Great job! You have great skills and talent and those are gifts from God. You go girl!
Lovely to see somebody skilled and proud of their work. Well done! Really great transformation.
You did a lot more than I expected to improve the dress. Good job.
Stunning.....you are gifted!!!❤
YOU DID GREAT ! YOU GOT TALENT !!!
You absolutely killed that!!💯🔥😍🥰
You made gourmet Lemonade out of THAT Lemon, I tell ya! Miraculous!
Fabulous as always. What I wouldn’t give for that talent.
She looks beautiful. I hope she had a good time at her party. You always do a great job. I’ve never seen you do anything bad. I wish you worked out here in,Southern California when my son got married last year. You do beautiful work.
You did a great job 👏👏👏👏👏
That dress looks way better after you altered it.
You lady are a miracle worker!!!!....Stunning!!!
Now that is some nice work on the dress. She looked stunning after your efforts well done!
I love seeing people great at their craft. Way to go!! That's awesome
Here to echo everyone else - you took a so-so knock off and made it stellar!
You truly make every dress I've seen you do just look amazing. And the happiness you give is just beautiful. You dear lady are very talented.
You are amazing and the dress was gorgeous on her! Just goes to show you that your talent can make a huge difference! ❤️
Girl..... That is stunning!! You slayed that dress!!!
I’ve watched several of your alterations videos, just for fun, and I must tell you that you are amazing!
You ALWAYS do an amazing job on the clothing you work with. I'm amazed at the skills you have!! Very well done as always!! Thanks for sharing and take good care ❤🙏🏻!!
You are an inspiration for me. You have demonstrated a level of detail that should go into the alteration process which is educational and informative. Thank you for making these videos. ❤
Gorgeous job! You did fantastic. Well done! 🎉
You did great! The original looked a little hopeless but you worked your magic and made it beautiful for a lovely lady.
You’re a miracle worker! Huge difference.
You are truly an amazing person, and so very generous with your time and skills! "Zero to hero" indeed!
YOU DID AMAZING 😍🤩❤!! WOW!! It definitely looked so much better after you fixed it!👍👍👏👏👍👍👏👏❤️❤️
My wife is studying historical dress making in college and she talks about it all the time. I assume that's how I ended up on your video. It was lovely and I'm glad I was able to see it 👍
You made the Amazon dress look like the more expensive gown! Well done!
Wow!! Absolutely stunning!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You paradised that dress for real. What a huge difference. I know paradised is not a word, but it should be.
I live in Australia. I would FLY TO YOU ✈ ...... if I ever needed serious alterations done on a special occasion dress! 💃
You totally rock and have serious skills - just awesome!!! 💜💙❤💛💚
You did a wonderful job 👏👏👏
You are astoundingly talented! Your ability to fix others failures is simply beautiful!
You did very well indeed. Congrats from another needlewoman.
Girl, you remade that dress. A wonderful job!
Girl you are a miracle worker for real!
I so admire your creativity and talent!!!
You Do Amazing Work!!! My Rule of Thumb is NEVER Buy A Dress From Amazon!!!
But if I did... I'd Need YOU To Do The Alterations!!! ❤
You MADE a stunning dress out of spare parts!
You are an artist!
You are a miracle worker woman!!!
You worked a strong miracle. Im not kidding you. I hope you charged what YOU are worth because it was magnificent work
Baby girl! You have blessed hands.
Wow! You worked a miracle! She looked gorgeous at the end 😊
How did you do??!! There aren’t words to say how you did… you are a miracle worker!! I’m awe struck… best wishes!
You're amazing! The dress looked beautiful. 👏
Great job fixing that dress! Your client looks great and I'm sure that the cost of the dress plus alteration fee is still cheaper than the original dress so, she made out!
You definitely did that Sis😍👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Well done, it often takes more effort to alter clothes rather than start from fresh. So def well done.
You did fabulously perfect alterations!
