NK Talks to Sew Heidi of "The Successful Fashion Designer" Podcast

NK Bride January 9, 2024

I will admit it’s a little nerve wracking to listen to myself talk for over an hour but I am really excited to have shared my experiences with Heidi's listeners. This podcast talks about my journey starting in fashion to becoming a bridal designer. Two years ago I decided to shift from my ready-to-wear line and focus only on making custom bridal designs. It was a long road filled with ups and downs and it sure wasn’t easy to let go of my fashion line but now I finally feel like I found my true calling and I am really happy.

The Re-Cut

NK Bride January 9, 2024

Creating a custom wedding dress doesn’t always mean you have to start from scratch. When Liz came in for her first consultation, she had already purchased a lovely gown. It was beautiful cotton lace overlaying a tan (nude) lining. It was stunning, but it didn't fit her at all. The proportions were so far from her body that the lace design over the bust sat almost at her waistline, making her look “saggy,” for lack of a better word. It was not flattering, to say the least. I’ve altered many wedding dresses in the past, but I knew this one was going to need more than alterations.
