Customer Profile: Nina

Miss Nina of the AMAZING Ciao Nina fascinators dropped in for a dress rescue. She found this awesome dress online and European sizing and American sizing do not always match up so it was several inches too small. The fabric and dress, created by Charlotte Taylor, were fabulous and very worthy of a revamp. before edited blog
