    You did a wonderful job and I guess I’m of the minority here but the dress before looked so wonderful I cried when the bottom of the top part was cut.

    That came out fantastic! I am shocked that you transformed it into such a lovely dress. Is that silk tulle that you used or is it a synthetic? I’m just getting ideas for my daughter’s dress. I wish she could wear mine, but she is too tall and has a larger bust.

    Through the whole video, I keep thinking about the daughter that took her moms wedding dress and had this done, without her moms permission and knowing her mom wanted to reware it for their vow renewal. I always wondered how the seamstres reacted when she found out she had ultimatly distroyed stolen property

      Wow! What a transformation! What sentiment behind the dress and how its lovely merge incorporates “something old”! Next year was last year… an update request to your video pretty please? And I didn’t see it in the comments, so my guess on the year of the original … 1979? ❤🎉👰🏻‍♀️

    You destroyed a beautiful wedding dress, that had puff sleeves. What's happening to women nowadays?

    • @thetailorette
      @thetailorette  Рік тому +3

      So sorry you feel that way 🙂 some, like myself don’t wear puffed sleeves very well because it makes our shoulders look buff. Others pull it off well. This customer wanted to shrink the look of the shoulders. Neither way is right or wrong, it depends on the shape of the wearer 🙂

    Destruction of that dress was ruthless...Nothing was saved for future changes. What ever happened to conserving parts/dresses for the next generation?

    • @lexisotelo8010
      @lexisotelo8010 3 місяці тому

      Actually, in a way it WAS conserved for a future generation. A dress that was going to sit idle in storage was lovingly transformed into something the next generation could wear with pride. Better to be used and loved again in a repurposed state than to gather dust. Seamstress did a great job too

    • @dreamiet
      @dreamiet 27 днів тому

      ​@lexisotelo8010 what Vickie ment was that. she could have seam ripped it. to keep all the pieces intact so they can be reassembled in the future if need be.
      but they way the dress was cut it can't be salvaged. it was savagely taken apart.
