The custom process

Bringing your dress to life

Five steps, and you’re part of every one.

  1. 01

    Sketch

    We sketch your idea, choose the materials together, and plan every detail around your measurements.

  2. 02

    Prototype

    We create a prototype of your dress so you can see it, try it on, and make final changes to the design.

  3. 03

    Pattern & production

    Your approved prototype becomes the pattern, and production of your dress begins.

  4. 04

    Final fitting

    Before final assembly, your dress goes through a last fitting and the decorative details are applied.

  5. 05

    Complete

    Your vision is brought to life. Your dress is ready for its moment.

“It turned out so perfect.”

I took my wedding dress here for alterations and it turned out so perfect. I couldn’t have been happier. The turnaround time was quick and customer service was outstanding! She even fixed a stitch mistake for free on the dress I bought for my rehearsal dinner. I will be going here the next time I need any alterations!

“Simply the best.”

Simply the best!!!! My friend suggested Margaryta’s for my wedding alterations and I couldn’t be happier! What started as me just wanting to have someone add lace to my veil turned into me bringing all of my wedding things including my dress here, because I felt like they understood my wants, my visions, and were experts at executing it! I felt so comfortable as soon as I walked in and I’m so glad I made the choice to bring everything here! They came out beautifully, exactly how I wanted them, and were half the price of where I originally had my dress going for alterations. Could not recommend more!!

“Saved the day in under 10 minutes!”

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We had a homecoming dress emergency and the dance was the next day! She not only stayed a little longer to help us, she resolved the issue and saved the day in under 10 minutes!

“Kind, patient with me, a great listener, and very skilled.”

I had a very short engagement and needed quick (but quality) alterations to my wedding dress. The seamstress/owner was phenomenal. She was kind, patient with me, a great listener, and very skilled. My dress was done with plenty of time to spare, done affordably, and I felt very valued through the whole process. I’d highly recommend her for any alterations you have. Even the MOST important ones!

A note from Margaryta

Hi! For more than 25 years I’ve worked as a seamstress alongside many influential women in the dress industry, and I’ve learned what my clients love most: being listened to, and leaving with something that fits perfectly.

My studio is a place women can depend on, for alterations and for custom clothing created specifically for them. We specialize in women’s clothing, and every client is my top priority.
