    Linda was flexible as I didn't know exactly what I wanted, other than a 1930's black and off-white stripe theme wedding. She sketched two different dresses that were lovely, but the third sketch was the total winner! I have never gotten so many compliments on *Just the Sketch* I'd saved on my iPhone when people would ask what my dress looked like, I'd show them what she produced. The final product was better! ... Thank you Linda for making my dream wedding the best it could be!

    Linda is great, she's patient and very sweet. She made my wedding dress. I did not really know what I wanted and she made a beautiful dress that accentuated my features and won me tons of praise. I love all the detail she gave to it. She was such a joy to work with that I remember wanting to invite her to the wedding. Now on the other side of my wedding, I'm trying to figure out something to do with my dress, it's not a conventional white dress. She offered to transition it from a one piece to a two pice with which I could dress up or down and be able to still use. Finally, she was able to make a dress with in my budget, which, of course was vital. I would definitely recommend her.

    I don't even know where to start with my praise for Linda. Not only did she create the wedding dress of my dreams but the entire process of working with her was wonderful. She has such a sense of style and understanding the concept of the client that my vision of what I had was mine but elevated to couture fashion. Her craftsmanship is impeccable and her attention to detail boarders on obsessive. I had a bit of an emergency with my veil and hair piece and she not only had a piece made for me in two days but went above and beyond and made it a masterpiece. Vera Wang doesn't have anything on Linda :)

    Linda was very sweet, talented, and professional, and I would recommend working with her. ... At the last moment, I happened to find a ready-made dress in a store that was pretty close to what I was looking for and less expensive, so I went with it, but I still wonder if that was the right decision over working with Linda and her gorgeous designs. This is a great option for someone who wants a unique, original design, and I'd recommend reaching out to Linda to discuss the option of a custom wedding dress.

    Linda is a very talented designer. Nowhere else in Austin will you find the level of expertise Linda and her staff have. They pay great attention to detail, they really care about making you happy. When you wear one of Linda's custom dresses you look and feel great.
