Formal Dress Alterations

Expert Formal Dress Alterations in Boise, ID

A dress should be made to fit your body perfectly, not the other way around. If you’ve fallen in love with a formal dress, but your next thought is, “If only it…” Stop right there and contact me, Melinda Fischer of Transformations Sewing.

With years of experience transforming ill-fitting dresses into beautiful formal gowns, I’ve consistently thrilled my clients and helped them have the dress of their dreams for their memorable event. Let me turn your “if only” wishes into your perfect dress. After your alterations are complete, you’ll be able to confidently say:
It is: 
  • The Perfect Length: Step away from the uncomfortable sky-high heels that you only chose to match the length of your dress. I’ll hem your gown to match your height and style. 
 
  • A Flattering Fit: Enjoy that slice of cake. I’ll adjust your dress's waistline to accentuate your curves.
 
  • Snug in the Right Places: Ditch the strapless, backless, push-up bra. I can add bust cups or princess seams to enhance your gown's comfort and fit.
 
  • An Appropriate Dress For My Event: Skip the bolero. I can add sleeves or adjust the neckline to meet your modesty preferences or dress code guidelines. 

A perfectly fitted dress is within reach. I’ll highlight your individuality by custom tailoring special occasion wear to your unique shape, accentuating your favorite features. 

Prom Dress Alterations for the Perfect Fit

Have you been dreaming of a perfect, fairytale prom night since you were a little girl? You might picture yourself draped in glitter and wearing glass slippers, but most importantly you imagine the perfect dress. The glitter and the glass slippers are negotiable, but that feeling of stealing the show–that is what we’re chasing.
When the time finally comes to find that exquisite prom dress, reality may set in with questions like:
 
  • Can prom dresses be altered? 
  • What if my prom dress is too long?  
  • How much does it cost to take up a prom dress? 

Let me help lift you from the bonds of reality back to your dream. Yes, a prom dress can be altered. As an expert dress tailor in Boise, I’ll work with you to uncover the full potential of your chosen prom dress. If it’s too long, I can easily hem your gown at an affordable price.

Bottom Line: I’ll help you look and feel your best for your special occasion. 


 

Homecoming Dress Alterations

In Boise, Idaho, shorter formal party dresses are popular for homecoming dances. Though still formal, they allow for your personality to shine through with more opportunities for fun and flair. We can make alterations like raising the hemline just enough for a flirty, fun night; adding pizzazz with an applique or some sequins; and adjusting the modesty level to suit your event. This won’t be your mother’s homecoming dress—unless you want it to be! If so, we can update the look and fit for today.
