I bought a beautiful wedding dress but it was too long so took it along to be altered. Despite it turning out to be a lot of work because there was a delicate lace pattern right at the bottom, Mandy painstakingly cut off the lace and re-attached it so that it was the perfect length but retained this lovely detail. She also improved the back, giving me a bustle which suited the dress well. At one point I was seriously toying with the idea of adding tiny capped sleeves but Mandy persuaded me to keep it strapless because the dress would look nicer without and she was definitely right. I would go back
