Wedding dress alterations are both a visual art and a precise science. Dorie Kong, the multi-award-winning founder of L’Mode Bridal, masterfully brings both together to perfect every bridal gown. With over three decades of experience designing and customizing dresses from scratch, Dorie now dedicates her unparalleled expertise exclusively to the intricate art of bridal alterations.
No matter your specific concern – from a tricky fit to a vision for a complete redesign – Dorie has the solution. She has cultivated a reputation that draws brides from across the country, including San Francisco, Las Vegas, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica, San Diego, and even New York City.
At L’Mode Bridal, we don’t just alter gowns; we elevate them. Our specialized services are designed to achieve elegant, slimming, slenderizing, sex-appealing, comfy, perky, and flattering results. Our expertise includes:
Choosing someone to handle your wedding dress is a big deal. It’s like trusting a stranger with your diary, but more sparkly. Here’s why L’Mode should be your trusted confidante:
We’re not just seamstresses; we’re artisans with decades of experience, particularly with the intricate nuances of bridal gowns. We’ve tamed taffeta, conquered crinoline, and even reasoned with rogue lace. We boast a team of professional Bridal Fitters with multiple accolades, ensuring your gown is in the most capable hands. Seriously, our empathy levels are almost as high as our stitch count.
We understand that your wedding dress is more than just fabric; it’s a symbol of a monumental moment. We treat every gown with the care and respect it deserves, working tirelessly to ensure it’s absolutely perfect for your walk down the aisle. It’s personal for us, too.
No hidden fees, no last-minute surprises (unless it’s a surprise compliment on your posture). We believe in clear communication and upfront pricing so you know exactly what to expect from day one.
We work with your timeline to ensure your dress is ready when you need it. We know life gets crazy, so we offer flexible appointment options to fit into your busy wedding planning schedule.
Behind every perfectly tailored gown at L’Mode Bridal is Dorie Kong. If dresses could talk, they’d probably confess their deepest fears to her. Dorie isn’t just our founder and head seamstress; she’s the heart, soul, and slightly sarcastic wit behind everything we do here.
With more years of experience than she cares to admit (let’s just say she started with corsets that required fainting couches), Dorie is a true master of her craft. She’s got an uncanny knack for seeing the potential in every stitch, for taming the most unruly fabrics, and for making even the most stressed-out bride crack a smile. Her hands have sculpted, reconstructed, and refashioned countless gowns, turning “almost” into “absolutely breathtaking.”
