Blanca is the best!

Very grateful for Blanca, she took care of my wedding dress. She added sleeves, fix some details because my dress was second hand and make it look great!

Blanca is wonderful

Blanca's Fresca Designs was one of a few referrals that I received when I purchased my dress from Fairytale Brides in Rockville. After looking at reviews, I decided to give it a try- and am so, so happy that I did. Fairfax was not the closest of locations for me, but the drives were so worth it! Blanca is skilled, kind, caring, and I would recommend her to any bride looking for a fair and positive experience with alterations. Blanca keeps busy with helping family and neighbors in addition to having many clients who want her great seamstress work, so I'd recommend reaching out sooner than later to make sure there's plenty of time for follow-up fitting appointments.

Amazing experience with flowers and dress!

Blanca was one of the best vendors we had, she is what made our wedding day perfect! Not only does she have extremely affordable tailoring prices, but she is a jack-of-all trades! She also provided BEAUTIFUL flower arrangements for our centerpieces, bridesmaid and bridal bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres, and even flowers to decorate our cake. It was SUCH a wonderful experience to work with her - she is so talent, kind, and flexible - she even met me at my home and kept offering to meet until the dress was tailored exactly how I wanted. She was able to add a complicated bustle; everything turned out so beautiful. She is so easy to work with and truly became a friend! We invited her to our wedding and she saved the day when my maid of honor could not pin up the bustle in time - thank you Blanca!!

Amazing experience

I cannot say enough great things about Blanca. She is the kindest woman with the most reasonable prices I’ve ever seen. She also came to my house for all of my fittings which was incredibly convenient. My dress fit like a glove and I couldn’t have been happier! Do not hesitate to hire her!

Alterations Specialist

Blanca was an absolute DREAM. I had chosen a strapless dress, but had dreams of having off the shoulder, wispy, ethereal sleeves added. After my first consultation with Blanca, I was immediately confident she could pull off my vision. She was helpful and communicative through the entire process. She was also super accommodating to my hectic pre wedding schedule. I cannot recommend her enough. I will be a life long client!

Blanca did an amazing job!

Blanca did an amazing job on my wedding dress. She was very attentive to detail and wanted to make sure she got the dress exactly the way I wanted. Her prices were very affordable and I was very happy with the final results. Blanca also helped me with creating centerpieces and bouquets for my wedding and they turned out beautifully. She was able to create exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much Blanca!

Took an dress I bought online and made it a beautiful gown.

Blanca did an amazing job with my dress. She put in a corset. added boning and cups to the chest area and waist, sewed on bling under the bust, made semi off the shoulder cap sleeves out of matching material she searched for ( I would have loved to have sleeves more off the shoulder then they were my only complaint), helped me choose the best bustle I believe it was French style that made my rear look like a magical waterfall, and last but not least hemmed my dress moving all the applica’s up by hand but still kept the dress looking amazing. She has worked tirelessly on another two dresses for me and you can see her passion shine through her work and her kind disposition with her clients.

Fantastic alterations!

Blanca did a fantastic job on my wedding dress that I brought her. It was about 6 sizes too big and needed some serious work. She patiently altered the dress and graciously allowed me to come back numerous times to make sure it was the perfect fit. Blanca also added sleeves to the dress and made sure that they looked natural.
She also made a veil to wear with the dress- it matched perfectly and looked great. Her prices are very reasonable and she is such a hard worker and prides herself on quality craftsmanship. I would definitely recommend her and will definitely be back. I can't say thank you enough!
