An ADORNED IN GRACE dress.

I often volunteer at a bridal shop in Beaverton area called ADORNED IN GRACE.  It is shop that is run by volunteers and the proceeds go to help educate and fight human trafficking in the Portland area.  The space that it is in is donated space, and all the wedding/formal gowns are new or used and donated.  Their website is www.adornedingrace.org.  Abolition Now is the non-profit that the shop is affiliated with and they have a website with more information on the mission.  

Anyway, this week I had a lovely bride that purchased her dress at the shop and needed alterations.  I thought I would share with you before and after photos.  

BEFORE:

The dress fit pretty well, but she wanted a lace up/corset back put in.  She also wanted a sweetheart neckline and a bustle.  We decided on a French bustle.

Here are the AFTER photos.  (shared with permission)
