From Europe to Tennessee

Cristina’s journey began in Europe, where classical tailoring and couture ateliers shaped her eye for proportion, texture,
and craftsmanship. In Gatlinburg, she brings that heritage to every consultation, making the showroom a calm, bespoke experience.

Each dress — whether a bridal gown, formal piece, or a thoughtful redesign — carries her signature
transformation: helping every woman feel beautiful, confident, and authentic.

Design Philosophy

  • Fit: Sculpted to your posture and proportions so you move with ease and confidence.

  • Fabric: Fine materials chosen for drape, structure, and comfort.

  • Finish: Hand-refined details — from invisible hems to artful beadwork.

What We Do

  • Bridal Styling: Personalized guidance to find or refine the gown that feels like you.

  • Couture Alterations: Complex tailoring for a flawless, comfortable fit.

  • Custom Redesigns: Reimagining heirloom or off-the-rack dresses into modern keepsakes.
