Laced with Love

At Ivory & Main we know every bride-to-be deserves a dress as unique as her love story. One of the best parts of working at our curvy bridal boutique is the way our engaged girlies light up as they see how stunning they look in our dresses, especially when they’re in silhouettes they never thought they’d love. No matter your type of curves, in the dressing rooms we’re known to get our bippity-boppity-boo on as we zip, flip and clip our gowns to best flatter and embrace every shape.
If a bride can well up with happy tears in a dress that’s only temporarily tailored to you (in what really amounts to pretty bungees and fancy binder clips), multiply that feeling when a seamstress extraordinaire gets hair magic mitts on it. Enter: Samantha, our expert head Tailor and Creative Director who ensures every detail is flawlessly tailored and uniquely made for you. Much like your relationship’s journey, with a dress, perfection is truly in the details and we vow to help them wow!
