- Adaptability: Skill in altering existing designs to fit or creating entirely new patterns based on individual requests.


4. Experience with Formal Wear

- Structural Knowledge: An understanding of how to construct garments that maintain their shape and elegance throughout the event.

- Aesthetic Sense: A keen eye for proportions, color matching, and the ability to blend traditional and contemporary designs to suit the wedding theme.


5. Client Consultation
