Roxie Couture

What else can I say except for I absolutely LOVE Roxie. She has a true talent and really made my dream dress come true! I purchased my wedding dress from The Bustle in Del Mar. It originally was a tube top dress so I bought extra lace knowing I had a vision to create a lace top with sleeves. Roxie did an amazing job to create this for me and I loved working with her on this. She is so sweet and really cares about the work she puts in to make sure I loved every piece of my dress. She goes above and beyond and you can tell she really loves what she does! Also, she surprised me with a little something blue for my dress on my final fitting which I thought was so sweet. She is a true gem!
I would rank her more than 5 stars if I could! :)

Where do I begin to express how much I LOVE Roxie. I called her because the bustle highly recommended her and then I read her astounding reviews. Once I met her in person I knew she was the perfect person to do my wedding dress alterations. I went to her with a dress that was huge on me and she was so talented, meticulous, sweet, friendly, list goes on. I loved our visits. She is the best seamstress I have ever met. She made my dress fit me like a glove. Everyone thought it was custom made. She also gave me tips of where to get the best undergarments, jewelry, etc. Everyone that saw my bustle said it was the best bustle they have ever seen. She is a true artist! You will make the best choice going to her to make you feel like the most beautiful bride.

I bought my dress from the Bustle in Del Mar. My consultant knew very quickly after watching me pick apart the smallest details of every dress that Roxie was my tailor. I managed to find my perfect dress and ordered some extra fabric and lace to have a custom matching bolero made for the church ceremony. My consultant gave me a few other options for a tailor, but knowing how talented and detail oriented Roxie is, my consultant STRONGLY recommended I go to Roxie.
The first time I met with Roxie I was impressed. She noticed the little things (that many did not see) before I had to say anything. She was clear about what we could do and how much it would cost. I wanted more fullness at the bottom of my trumpet gown so instead of using the slip the boutique had suggested I purchased she sewed in some beautiful extra crinoline that she had and did not charge me for the fabric!
During each of my 5 or 6 subsequent visits (all included in quoted price) my dress because a work of art made to fit my changing body (I gained a little weight when my husband came home from deployment oops) perfectly. She never seemed frustrated with me for changing or blamed me for my dress not fitting. She took each change with a deep sense of professionalism.
When it came to my bustle, I was amazed. I never liked bustles, but they are a specialty of Roxie’s. She created a bustle that made my dress not even look bustled! My bridesmaids were surprised to hear about the 50 knots they would have to tie to make my crazy long train go away without taking away from the dress, but at my last appointment, I took two who learned quickly under Roxie’s guidance on how to bustle my dress. We had no issues bustling on my wedding day.
As for my bolero, Roxie made a stunning bolero that fit in perfectly with my dress. After talking over options, Roxie made my bolero lightly stitched into the top of my dress so that it looked like part of the gown. Roxie taught my MOH how to pull out the stitching to take the bolero off. There was no injury to my dress and it looked perfect!
By the end of my visits, I not only had the perfect dress, bustle and custom designed/​made bolero, but I had made a new friend. Before meeting Roxie, I thought I was the one who cared most that I looked perfect on my wedding day, but I learned Roxie actually cared more. Rather incredible given my personality and how important looking perfect was to me. Roxie isn’t the cheapest, but think about this… why spend a bunch on a dress and have it not fit you right or have bad sewing or a ugly bustle when you spend the whole reception bustled? Roxie is a gem and worth every penny. She loves what she does and truly cares about her work and her brides.

I read all of the reviews below and I couldn’t agree more! Roxie really does go above and beyond and takes as many sessions as she needs to get the dress perfect! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She is worth every penny! I highly recommend her to any bride needing alterations, but the woman is busy so make sure you give her plenty of time to work on your dress!

I am almost a year behind on my review but I have to say Roxie is the best you will ever encounter. She is so detailed oriented and a perfectionist. Works day and night to give you the dress of your dreams. She is truly a wonderful person and you can do no wrong.

Roxie is amazing! She was on a list of recommended seamstresses, but I initially didn’t call her because she was an hour away from me. So… I went with someone else for a first meeting. Let’s just say that I left that appointment feeling very uncomfortable with leaving my dress there. I called Roxie and she picked up immediately! The dress I bought was a lot larger in the chest than what God has blessed me with, plus it has a lot of boning, so I wasn’t sure how she was going to fix it. She first asked me what vision I had for my dress and I had no idea. She then started listing off things that she wanted to fix. The reason why I left there feeling so comfortable was that she told me exactly how she was going to do everything. She also told me what to expect of the dress every time I would go in for a fitting. She is so flexible with her schedule. She sometimes would meet me at 8:30 at night! I would HIGHLY recommend her!

Roxie is PHENOMENAL! My dress was a few sizes too big, not to mention the lace was so intricate, other places we went too were not so sure on how they planned on making the alterations I needed. Her work is unbelievable and the poor woman works herself to death for «her brides.» :) She truly loves each and every one of the girls that see her and her 100% goal is to make sure you are happy, even if it is at her own expense. She is a little more expensive than most places, but its because she truly puts her blood, sweat, and tears into these dresses (and countless late nights) and it is so worth it. If you have a budget like I did, consider lowering it elsewhere, NOT on your dress alterations. Roxie truly is not only an amazing wedding dress alterationist, but a wonderful person that will work with you and gives you lots of advice for the wedding day! Go to her before purchasing shoes or undergarments as well, she knows all the little tricks! If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have realized the shoes I bought made my feet throb within minutes and she immediately had a solution and I purchased new shoes that same day. Thank you so much Roxie! I will be sending all of my girlfriends to you!

There are no words to accurately describe my experience with Roxie and my wedding dress alterations. She is so extremely talented, and so sweet and caring. She did such an amazing job on my dress. I enjoyed my visits with her and was sad to say goodbye on my final appointment. Thank you Roxie!

I’m not sure what else I can say that hasn’t already been said. Roxie will work wonders for a wedding dress and goes above and beyond to make sure you walk away looking PERFECT. I had about 6 fittings to make sure my illusion neckline and sheer back fit like a glove. I also had a very intricate bustle added and Roxie even went through and added extra details so my bridal attendant could be sure she was doing it right. I went to France two weeks before my wedding and Roxie met with me twice in a week (once at 9 pm at night) to make sure the dress fit perfectly before I traveled to NY for our wedding. She is an incredibly talented and generous person — I wish I had another reason to visit her again! Don’t even think about going to anyone else!

There aren’t enough words to express just how amazing Roxie was to work with. I bought my wedding gown from Courtney at The White Flower and she highly recommended Roxie for her meticulous attention to detail and her phenomenal custom bustles. After talking to Roxie via text message and over the phone, I knew she as the one I wanted to work on my dress. We met as many times as it took and for as long as it took to make my dress fit me like a glove. She was fun, personable, a perfectionist and makes you feel beautiful inside and out. You will fall in love with this women because she doesn’t have a mean bone in her. She treats your dress just like she treats a person, with kindness and a gentle heart. She loves what she does and is truly passionate about her work… and WOW does her work show that. Her bustles alone are one in a million and you will walk down the aisle in a gown and enter the reception with a flare of fun. I was in love with my dress after I purchased it and even more in love with it after Roxie finished it. She surprised me with my «something blue» monogrammed names and date on the inside of my gown. Not only that but she is a very talented calligrapher and gifted us our wedding reception place cards of 60 guests. Just beautiful!
Talk about above and beyond, my car was out of commission just days before the wedding and Roxie came 35 minutes to my house for a fitting. I was shocked, speechless actually, at the kindness. I am so blessed to have met and worked with Roxie and honored to call her a friend now. She will forever be in my network and circle of friends. Roxie, thank you for being you and being apart of our wedding and lives. We will be seeing you.

Roxie is a an amazing seamstress and an even more amazing person! I got my wedding dress from The Bustle in Del Mar, however, Roxie was highly recommended to me by a friend who is the manager at Nicole Miller. Roxie is a perfectionist and she will make your dress look perfect on you (no matter what you give her to work with). With Roxie, you can expect high quality, professional work as well as the most warm and caring person.
Roxie goes above and beyond to make sure that the dress fits you PERFECTLY. I live 45 minutes away and I made about 7 trips to see Roxie and try my dress on. You are never rushed and you always leave happy and confident! I actually miss visiting Roxie now that my wedding is over. Every aspect of my dress was flawless and Roxie created the most beautiful, unique bustle I have ever seen! She spent an hour showing my bridesmaids how to tie the bustle properly and she altered my mom’s dress AND created a matching purse for her… talk about above and beyond!
I highly recommend Roxie to any bride — your dress will fit you flawlessly and you will have a stress-​free alterations experience!

Roxie did an absolutely beautiful job on my friend Molly’s wedding dress! She really customized the look and was so thoughtful to what Molly wanted and how she could be comfortable. I was the assigned bustle-​girl and went to two of the fixings with Roxie. Both fittings Roxie remained incredibly professional and sweet, she really treats you like a friend. I absolutely love Roxie and hope to use her as my seamstress for my wedding this coming May! If you want your dress to be absolutely perfect, if your dress is made of delicate lace, or you want an incredible bustle even if you don’t have a very long train, this is the seamstress for you! She is wonderful!

Roxie is a brides lifesaver. I am the mother of the bride. I found the whole wedding gown experience the most difficult part of the wedding planning. The bridal shops order a gown in a size that covers your biggest body part. The proportions of the dress end up being nothing like the sample you tried on. It doesn’t resemble the way they clipped it to fit you. That being said, you then need a lot of alterations if you want the dress to look beautiful and fit you properly. Roxie knows what she is doing and takes the time and care a picky bride needs to feel she has the dress fitting perfectly. Most of the shops recommend you come in for three fittings. With Roxie,
We went in 6 – 7 times. It was worth the trip every time. She wants you to look and feel perfect. Her workmanship is exceptional. Her bustle came out amazing. She is the person for the pickiest of brides!
Roxie also went above and beyond the wedding dress. My mother of the bride dress had already been hemmed before we met Roxie. I had extra fabric and asked her if she knew of someone who could make me a purse out of the matching fabric. She took the fabric and had one of her employees make me a beautiful custom clutch to match my dress. She wanted to see my dress on, so when I tried it on I showed her a bit of wrinkling on the back side. The seamstress who altered my dress in the first pace didn’t want to deal with these wrinkles. Said it wasn’t worth fixing. The perfectionist that Roxie is, she offered to put some boning in and fix it for me. Went I returned-​my dress was now perfect, thanks to Roxie. She is a wonderful, caring person. I hope to remain personal friends with her.

My review for Roxie is waaaaaay overdue! My wedding planner had recommended Roxie for my wedding gown alterations, and I’m so glad I found her! I ordered a very expensive dress from a boutique gown shop in Beverly Hills. When my dress came in, the girl could not zip the back up over my hips — I had not gained weight, they had ordered a too small dress. Roxie basically had to remake the back of my dress, which ended up being way better! She removed the lame zipper and put in a lace-​up back. It was a fight to get extra lace from the dress designer as they said more lace wasn’t needed, but both Roxie and I placed calls and emails and finally got the lace. She is such a lovely person that I invited her to my wedding. Roxie came while I was getting ready to help my mom lace up the back of the dress. After pre-​wedding pictures, a side seam split and Roxie rushed back to see it. Amazing! She went above and beyond, and I highly recommend her.

Roxie is an amazing person and an incredibly talented artist. I found dress shopping to be one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning. Aside from the cost you know that everyone will be looking at you, its a crazy amount of pressure! I ended up buying a sample gown that was about 4 sizes too big for me. Roxie had to basically remake my dress. I asked her to change the lace-​up back for a zipper with bottoms trailing all the way down the dress, she lowered the back and completely rebuilt the bodice. She hemmed and did an amazing french bustle. Overall, I saw her 7 times throughout the course of my alterations. She never rushed me (meaning she let me stay in my dress, I loved it so much it was hard to take off!) she listened to every concern that I had and she did beautiful work. I included before, progress and after pictures of my dress, but it really doesn’t do it justice. Roxie single handedly made me feel like a beautiful bride on my wedding day.

Roxie is amazing! like a magician with a needle and thread. She did amazing work on my very delicate lace dress. I was a little worried when I picked it up from the dress shop that it wasn’t quite what I was expecting, but Roxie turned it into a dream come true. She had to completely reshape the top of my dress and by the time she was done it fit me beautifully! She will get the job done perfectly no matter how much work and how many fittings are needed. She is truly committed to doing exceptional work. Plus, she’s super sweet and fun to work with. I highly recommend her!

Roxie was such a wonderful part of my wedding preparations. She is so nice to work with, she clearly loves being a part of The Bride Experience and making it special for every bride. Roxie is an extremely skilled seamstress and she is passionate about design, and her enhancements to my off-​the-​rack dress made it gorgeous! Creating the bustle was her favorite part — she offered a few different options that were hard for me to visualize, so I ultimately turned it over to her and what she designed was perfect for the dress and my shape. It can be stressful to put such a key part of your look in someone else’s hands, but you can trust Roxie to do a beautiful job.
