Hems, straps, bodice and bust fitting for prom, homecoming, winter formal, quinceañera, and graduation dresses, priced from the shop's menu and back in seven to ten days. Book two to three weeks before the dance; rush is possible.
Formal dresses are bought to a size, not to a body: the hem drags, the straps gap, the bodice needs an inch at the sides. We fix all of it in-house with the same care as a wedding gown, at prices from the shop's own menu, for students from Fullerton, Placentia, Brea, Anaheim, Buena Park, and La Habra high schools and from Cal State Fullerton and Fullerton College.
Prom season is short and every dress is due the same week, so book the fitting two to three weeks before the dance and bring the shoes. The tailoring calculator prices a hem, strap, or side seam before you come in; the price is confirmed at the fitting.
What we alter
Pricing
From the shop's menu. A multi-layer hem or a beaded bodice is settled at the fitting once we see the construction.
Standard turnaround is seven to ten business days; express (3–5 days) adds 25% and rush (24–48 hours) 50%, agreed before we start.
The timeline
Buy the shoes. Book the fitting online or walk in with the dress and the shoes.
The fitting: we pin the hem on your shoes, mark the straps and the sides, and price everything on the spot.
Pick up, try it on in the shop, and we steam it. Anything off by a hair is fixed while you wait.
