"Thank you, Barbara, for working closely with me to create my dream wedding gown. I had an idea in my head of what my dress would look like and you fit it to a tee."

Welcome to Style des Rêves.
I believe that you and your wedding celebration are unique.

In my work I combine my love of making beautiful things with years of custom dressmaking and fashion industry experience. I have worked in lingerie design, costuming, pattern making and textile design. I have also been an instructor in the Fashion Program at Marist College in Poughkeepsie. The result is the region's finest custom dressmaking service.

The projects I work on feature fine fabrics, carefully selected; high quality craftsmanship, and expert attention to fit and proportion. I take pride and pleasure in accurately interpreting each woman's wishes.

In the relaxed country atmosphere of my Hudson Valley studio I will take you through the intriguing process of creating your unique gown: perfecting the design concept, selecting fabric and trims, and fitting the gown at various stages of its construction.

Whether what you desire is contemporary or traditional, fancy or simple, white or "green", please allow me to craft a gown that is truly the style of your dreams!

Custom designed and constructed wedding gowns start at $1,800.

Please allow four months for custom made gowns.
