Working with Iliana was wonderful! I wanted to learn some basics about sewing and she helped me get started. She also gave me some tips on a project I hope to complete one day. I really recommend her lessons for anyone who wants to learn to sew and doesn’t know where to start!

I asked Iliana to make a wedding dress for me last minute. I am so happy she accepted the challenge. She got to work right away and managed to get two fittings in. I showed her what I was looking with the inspiration pictures, and she made it even better.! I loved my dress and got so many compliments. The bespoke dress really made my wedding day so much better. 100% recommend. Pleas give her more lead time than I did.
