About Us

I can’t even begin to explain the professionalism and top notch work that Rita does! She is a superb Taylor with an expertise for Galia Lahav dresses and other designer gowns. I live in San Diego so she was the closest tailor that’s experienced in Galia Lahav dresses which by the way was a recommendation from the actual GL store and several stores. I brought my COUTURE dress in and we did a fitting and she explained every detail and recommendations for my dress. My dress had extensive beadwork and a beaded mesh back. This dress took months to make in Israel. I had lost a lot of weight and it unfortunately hung on me like a tapestry. But with Rita’s help she explained what needed to be done and she even asked me if any of her recommendations were okay with me. Honestly, I was really afraid that my dress would get butchered, the delicate beading and lace is so fragile I didn’t even want anyone to touch it….She made sure that she did what I wanted and showed me the areas that needed altering. My dress had a very delicate illusion mesh back which you could see the ripples from it being too big when tried on. It did need to get taken in on the sides a bit and cups added. I was quite nervous because the gown is so expensive and took months to make. I went in a couple times. First time is the actual fitting where they pin you, second she took it in and you try on the dress. Third, she completed the gown along with my train and I was able to take it home. I am relatively flat chested and she was able to bring my cup size about 1.5 sizes bigger without it looking unnatural. The original cup size I believe was a C but the added cups helped bring the dress up. The side seams look like it hadn’t been re-stitched. She redid the back illusion mesh and restored it to its original without having any rippling in the back making it look seamless. Truly remarkable! I also have to say that out of all the fittings I had (because I have more than one dress) she was a delight to meet with and so very kind and professional! She really does take the time with you to ensure your dress is perfection. I had a different experience at a different tailor and it was horrible. They tend to be overbooked and I highly recommend getting your dress tailored early and booking those sessions right away. I recommend Rita for all new brides!! She truly is the best!
