FAIT D'OR
HANDMADE DRESSES,
ALTERATIONS, & EMBROIDERY
01 about
I create handmade historical and wedding dresses, thoughtful alterations, embroidery, and photography that celebrate beauty, rarity, and timeless elegance. With careful detail and artistry, each piece- whether a gown, embellishment, or captured moment- reflects the grace of the past while shining with a touch of modern refinement. Fait d’or, meaning ‘made of gold,’ is more than a name, it’s the essence of each dress: precious, radiant, and enduring.

Kristin
Adaline made my wedding dress with a very short time frame. Even though there was very little notice and only a few reference pictures she was able to create the dress of my dreams.
Sydnee
From start to finish there was wonderful communication and I was asked about every single decision that was made.
