Super unimpressed. Was part of a bridal party that had commissioned dresses. We were from out of state and had sent all of our measurements in somewhere around 5 months before the dresses were due. The understanding was that we would fly down for our final fitting and any last minute alterations would go through and we'd be able to pick up the dresses by Sunday.
Friday: our dresses aren't finished. There are dresses without zippers. My dress is huge in the bust. I ask for it to be cinched smaller. Somehow that's lost and the fabric creating the boat neck is sewn in tighter, creating a strange almost crew neck.
Saturday: Kelsey calls the bride to tell her some of the dresses won't be ready and she'll have to ship them to us, including the bride's (which she had been commissioned for a year prior.)
Sunday: the bride and some bridesmaids pick up their dresses.
Next week: I get my dress which had been mailed to the bride. it doesn't fit. The bust is still too big. It's not flattering. I end up having to go to a tailor near me two weeks before the wedding to get everything fixed. The tailor was amazing, thank goodness, but this is what I learned:
1. Kelsey bit off more than she can chew. The few dresses that were ready were ready because the bride had to be stern. Kelsey tried to delay even closer to the wedding.
2. Girl does not know how to make dresses for curvy women.
3. Sending your measurements means nothing.
4. Kelsey has a lot to improve on when it comes to organization and execution. Her designs are beautiful but no one will care about that if you can't deliver. If she had, then her clothing would have been worth the pretty penny. But because our dresses were late and not well fitting, despite sending measurements and having the fitting, the dress was overpriced in terms of quality. read more
