Why should I choose an independent custom clothier such as Yelena Couture instead of a well-know designer?
Working with well-know designers is very expensive and often problematic. These designers charge significantly more for their services because they spend a considerable amount of money on marketing their brand. In addition, their focus is primarily on celebrity clientele, who can further boost their brand’s image simply by wearing their dresses in public. Dresses for non-celebrity clientele are typically put on the back burner at these shops. On the other hand, an independent custom clothier treats every client like a celebrity. You and your dress will be a priority for them. And they can provide the same quality (many of them have worked for top designers) at a reduced cost because they do not have all the expenses and trappings of a major label.
