I bought my dress elsewhere and decided to use Judith based on great reviews I found online. I was never really in love with my dress to begin with, and I originally took it to Judith to have a bustle put in. However, Judith could tell I didn't really care too much about my dress, so she offered suggestions as to how the dress could be altered. The dress began as an off-the-shoulder dress with the back slightly below my shoulder blades, and is now a beautiful strapless with a sweetheart neckline and a dropped back. And I LOVE it! I never had any doubts that Judith would be able to do all that she said. Judith is really confident and makes it easy to entrust your dress to her. And she works quickly, and she's extremely affordable! I would recommend Judith to anyone in the Northern VA/DC area - she's worth it! By Pricila and Nicholas's 07/17/2009
