No todos los expertos en alteraciones son iguales. En este análisis claro y directo, deshilamos lo que realmente separa a una costurera de un sastre.

If you’ve ever been burned by a crooked hem or a botched gown, this guide will speak your language. We’re getting real about who you can trust with your wardrobe and why tailor-made always beats trial-and-error. Consider this your style intervention.
