Christy recently altered my wedding dress for me! I had such a special experience working with her on deciding what to alter, she was very accommodating, honest, and prompt during the fittings and I will be going back to her with my bridesmaids very soon! I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in formal alterations, styling or design options ❤️ Thank you for all you did for me Christy!

Amazing work, completed by a truly gifted individual! Was finished on time with perfection. Would recommend to anyone looking for quality alterations by a local friendly business!

The prices are high. I'd rather go to an actual storefront shop.

Great work altering my bridesmaid dress. A little expensive, but I should say that I haven't had any alterations before that I could to compare it to...

Kristy is not only incredibly nice she is a talented magician! She did an amazing job altering my wedding dress including a very intricate hem. I highly recommend her.

Christy hemmed my wedding dress. I received professional, courteous service at all times, with reasonable pricing. Her home studio has a nice ambiance, and she treats both you and your dress with care and dignity. Christy suggested that she sew in gel bust inserts--to better support and optimize the look. Sewing is her passion! I felt like I was in very capable hands and the end product was as I had hoped for.

We had a great experience at Christy's shop. I asked for recommendations on a local fb site, and she was recommended several times. Her boutique is so quaint and cozy and you just feel peaceful there. Christy is very knowledgeable at her craft and listens to her client's needs. We brought my daughter's grad dress in for a simple hem and ended up with a delicate high-low hem to show off the great shoes. Also purchased a fantastic necklace for myself and a pair of earring for my daughter. Not only is Christy a fantastic seamstress, she is a talented jewellery maker as well!! Thanks Christy!!! #shoplocal

I have been meaning to write a review for some time now and am finally finding the time to do so. I have to say this lady is amazing. I was getting so frustrated with finding a dress to fit right for my daughter’s wedding. Thankfully, Christy came to the rescue and did some wonderful alterations to make me truly be happy with my dress. Her service and talent is wonderful. So much so, I ended up getting another dress altered, a favorite dress duplicated, and then purchased a couple of dresses based from her samples. Fall is here, and I think it is time to go back and get my Fall wardrobe updated. I’m so very happy to know we have such a talented professional right here in our city of Maple Ridge….. No need to go to downtown Vancouver to get the quality clothing you need!

Had my first fitting, she was professional and quick, very informative. I'm having my 16 year old prom dress turned into a grown up formal gown, and can't wait to pick it up.

Christy is absolutely amazing! I live in a very small town without a seamstress and got married in the Vancouver area. I had contacted many seamstresses but Christy was the only one that was able to guarantee the job with the tight one week time frame. When I tried on the dress for the first time since ordering it in her shop, we found out it was ordered much larger than it should have been. She was not only able to still finish the job in the time frame, but made it look like the dress was always the perfect size, and even added some detail around the neckline, all with a smile on her face. I can't recommend her highly enough!

100% would I recommend this seamstress to someone. I came in about 10 days before my event with my dress that was a good size to a size and a half too big. She brought it in a couple inches, did AMAZING work, and didn't even charge me a rush fee. Then, to top it all off, she had the dress done three days before her estimate! I am so happy with the product she produced!

Christy altered my wedding dress for my August 22nd wedding. I was told she would be beyond expensive but worth it. After paying $1800 in alterations as well as a $100 fitting fee I was left with a dress that was so poorly fitted I considered cancelling my wedding photos, I was fortunate to find a talented seamstress that was able to fix her mistakes and give me the dress if my dreams. My dress was left over a size too big throughout the waist (while completely done up), the top around the chest was gaping (also while completely done up), and the straps were also far too loose. She refused to take any responsibility, and while at my final fitting for the dress when I picked it up I told her how unhappy I was with it and her solution was to attempt to sell me clothes from her shop. Later after I complained again and though the problems could be fixed by fixing the straps she said she would likely only charge me a fitting fee if only the straps needed to be fixed. After a long process going back and forth, she only offered to refund $500 of the $1900 total and only if I signed a privacy agreement and I wouldn’t be able to share my experience with others. My husband and I decided it’s more important to be able to warn other brides, I would never want anyone else to experience what I went through with Christy.

I was having a hard time finding a person or business I felt comfortable with altering my wedding dress since I purchased it in the USA, and it is mostly lace detail. I saw Christie's business The Parisian Lady on google and saw she had a lot of good reviews, so I decided to give her a try. She exceeded all expectations! She really made me feel comfortable in her at-home studio, and gave me different options for how she could alter my dress. She really took the time to explain to me how she was going to alter my dress without doing anything to damage it. Her knowledge and many years of experience was evident right away. The best part was the one-on-one interaction with the person who would be altering my wedding dress, and knowing exactly what would be happening. Christie was super professional, kind, and patient with me. I would highly recommend her talents to anyone who needs alterations!!
