Before & After Transformation

Every dress tells a story — and sometimes it just needs the right finishing touch. Here’s one of our recent transformations, where small details made all the difference.

Before:

The original gown featured thin straps and a low back, offering little support or coverage. The bride wanted a softer, more romantic look with better balance and comfort.

After:

Light chiffon sleeves were delicately added to create a graceful drape and elegant movement. The neckline and back were reshaped for a refined silhouette, and the fit was adjusted through the waist and hips for a seamless flow.

The result — a timeless, airy design that complements the bride’s shape beautifully while feeling comfortable all day.

About Akseniya – Founder of Nice Alter

Sewing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Inspired by my family’s stories and especially by my grandfather — a respected community tailor — I grew up surrounded by craft, creativity and the value of well-made clothing.

With over twenty years of experience across clothing production, bridal alterations and fashion retail, as well as three years of fashion design studies, I discovered my true passion: helping people feel confident, comfortable and connected to the garments they love.

Nice Alter was created to offer a thoughtful alternative in a world of fast fashion. Today, more individuals are choosing sustainable and meaningful approaches to clothing care, from repairs to restyling and custom transformations. My goal is to provide high-quality alteration services that honour personal identity, extend the life of cherished pieces, and support more conscious choices within our community.

At Nice Alter, every stitch carries intention — preserving memories, enhancing comfort, and bringing garments back to life.

Complex or delicate garments may take a little longer, but we’ll confirm exact turnaround at your fitting.
