One of a Kind Prom Dress

As much as I love working with men's clothing, I still get really excited when Balsam Tailors get asked to make really beautiful girlie things! Many people know us as a custom suit/shirt and fine tailoring store but once in a while, we have people who like to challenge us--AND WE LOVE THAT! 

Jody had an idea of what her prom dress should look like. But because of time constraint and sizing issues, she couldn't get the dress she wanted in the ready-made version. She came to us and presented her idea.

I fell in love with her idea. It's something I would totally wear...it's simple, elegant, airy, sparkly and sexy! 

Get What You Really Want

Spotted something you like in the magazine? Rip it out, bring it here. Saw something you like online and you're inspired by it? Print it out, bring it here. Dreamed of something you like last night? Jot it down, bring it here.

Whatever it is that you want your body to be clad in, the Balsam crew will be happy to make it into reality.

One of our long time customers was inspired by Princess Di's vacation dress, one she wore in the Carribbean on March 23, 1990. She liked it and requested a similar dress made in white.  I can see her wearing it to a lovely Spring garden party with a wide brim hat and dainty white gloves :)

She hasn't tried on the dress yet since the fitting. I can't wait to see what the finished dress looks like on her!
