Pricing
Sew Chic strives to offer you the highest
quality of work at an affordable cost.  
Given the
custom nature of our
business,
we do not provide prices
up front until we have had an initial
consultation, which is ALWAYS
complimentary,
and know the specific
requirements of your job, which include:

Type of Fabric
Size (measurements & height
Concept (pattern, pictures, idea)

The term custom design is frequently misused to describe nearly anything
slightly unique.  On the contrary, when
Sew Chic uses the term custom design,
we are referring to Couture, which is a
class of clothing usually reserved for the
rich and famous.  A truly custom design
or couture fashion is an apparel item
tailor made for an individual out of the
most exquisite fabrics available, and is
truly unique and one of a kind.  

Given the incredible amount of time and
care that goes into these designs,
the
cost is normally higher than ready-to-
wear clothing
.  Furthermore, when
having apparel custom designed you
can be sure that no one will outshine
you at your special occasion by showing
up to the event wearing the same outfit
as you.

As popular culture dictates some things
are
priceless.  Having a custom
designed dress or other ensemble
created by Sew Chic is indeed
priceless.  Sew Chic makes the first
class world of couture available to
everyone, regardless of celebrity status.

For example, silk, satin, chiffon, tulle, etc...
