Need to find a good seamstress soon

DD in Allen wants a specific dress made for her Senior Prom. I live closer to Waco.I know of one or two here, but fittings could turn into a nightmare.

How would I find a good seamstress for making this dress, what should be a decent ballpark figure?

Please help? 

Re: Need to find a good seamstress soon

  • Becky Fowler is in Irving and is amazing... she made a bm dress for me and it was $100 for labor and I provided the fabric...?

    972-986-8067?

  • I second Becky Fowler. She's great.
  • Becky is awesome!  She did all the work for my wedding and it was amazing. 
  • of all things, DD wants the dress Taylor Swift wore in her video Love Story/Romeo.

    Can Becky do this? The dress wouldn't have the long train. Most problematic is going to be the corset top and finding the embroidered lace. 

    Edit,, JustinandLindsay- did she make your dress? 

  • Becky can do just about anything... and from a picture. She is very honest and if she doesnt think she can do it perfect, she wont take the job. GL!
  • She didn't make it from scratch but she took in the corset a lot and had to redo a lot of the hand beaded lace.  She also basically remade my moms MOB dress since it was about 5 sizes too big when it came in.  I agree with PP, she'll tell you if she can't do it....but I bet she can!

  • thank you so much! I talked to her this morning and sent pictures. She's pretty sure from my description that she can do it.
