Q: Where are you located?
A: While we are based in Florida, we closed our retail location in 2014 to sell custom dresses online only. After being in business for 6 years it had become obvious that our customers were predominately interested in placing custom orders instead of buying off the rack. This meant it was unnecessary to have a physical location and to pay for overhead costs to house and store merchandise, pay employees, etc. when we could run our business online and save our customers even more money by eliminating those costs.
