She’s such a warm and friendly person and I definitely recommend her for your alteration needs. She was also able to complete it within a week! My dress now fits better than perfect, honestly the best fitting dress I’ve ever worn. Thank you so much Silvana, I’m so so grateful!

I'm looking to alter a dress I purchased from Forever New: https://www.forevernew.com.au/margot-2-in-1-halter-midi-dress-299449?colour=whipped-butter I am roughly a size 8, but purchased it in a size 10. It's just a touch too big for me, and I'd love to alter it to fit my body. The two main alterations I'd like to have done, are around the halter neck, to tighten the bodice, and then the skirt, bringing it a little higher on the bodice, so it sits a bit better on my body.
Elena was kind and professional, understood exactly what I wanted and managed to do it within a quick turn around!
