Everyone loved it
- Deb RaiffI can’t tell you how happy I was with my gown everyone absolutely loved it.
The dress fit like a dream.
- Maria RileyLora did a wonderful job. I brought her my dress after another seamstress accidentally made my dress WAY too small and Lora worked her magic. The dress fit like a dream. Thanks again, Lora!
Truly a one of a kind dress!
- Alicia MorelandI took my wedding dress to Van Lear to get alterations and could not be happier with the special touches Lora was able to add, now I truly have a one of a kind dress!! I am so excited to wear such a beautiful, custom dress on my big day! Lora listened, had great input and was so nice to work with
She listens, She cares, and she’s fun to work with.
- Sarah AnsellI will not take a formal dress anywhere else for alterations. Lora listens to what you want, and how you want your dress to fit. At other places (including David’s Bridal), you are treated like you are stupid, and THEY will tell YOU how YOUR dress should fit, even if it emphasizes every insecurity you have… garbage. Go to Van Lear. She listens, she cares, and she’s fun to work with.
Lora does amazing work!
- Cindi Blackwell ParkerI would come to her for any special occasion dress, not just a wedding dress. She also does a wonderful job of altering clothes to fit her customers. I highly, highly recommend.
