Reviews for Atelier des Modistes
GUEST
Sue is the best. Seriously, the best. She is so kind and generous - not to mention, hugely talented.I adored my wedding dress. I bought a sample from her and she completely tailored the dress to my body. It looked fantastic the day of. She had clearly spent a lot of time making it perfect and it showed.Her designs are far superior to those off the rack. You can literally feel the energy that she puts into the dresses in her store - that's something you won't find at Marina Morrison, trust me.It's weird to say this because wedding dresses are a really big deal, but even more than the dress.... I loved Sue. I had to go dress shopping on my own bc my mom and I couldn't find a dress together the one weekend she was in SF (we looked at many stores). Sue kind of helped me out through the whole dress experience - she helped me like a mother would- from the veil to the shoes to the jewelry. It felt really great to know that she cared.One more thing: AWESOME jewelry at Atelier des Modistes as well - things that really compliment her designs.Go meet her. You'll be happy you did.

Susanne is an incredibly talented seamstress who worked with me to make the dress of my dreams. It fit incredibly and she worked with me to fit my budget and time line!If you want a custom made dress, this is the place to go!
Atelier Des Modistes is great for those seeking a total custom experience. Suzanne is SO sweet and she runs a tiny shop with exquisite designs. You can try on all of these different silhouette options (tops and bottoms) to put together a custom look. And since everything is designed in house you can add whatever details you want.
About Atelier des Modistes
We specialize in couture bridal and eveningwear. All of our gowns are designed by Suzanne Hanley and made in house in our shop on Russian Hill in San Francisco. We use the finest 100% silks from Italy and laces from France. All of our beading is done in house using freshwater pearls and gemstones.
The couture process begins with a consultation with Suzanne Hanley, the owner and designer, who will help you choose the neckline, skirt shape, fabric and trim details of your dress. The first step in the construction of the gown is a test of the dress in muslin (lightweight cotton) that we use to refine the fit and review design details and shape, before we cut the fabric. A written price quote with fabric swatches is provided at the end of the 90 minute consultation. We usually do about 5 fittings, depending on the time frame and complexity of the piece, and we request a six month lead time.
The shop features the current collection which ranges in price from $2350-$10,000. Jewelry and accessories designed in house as well as one of a kind pieces from local designers, compliment the collection.
Business hours are Wed-Sat 12-8pm
Please phone to schedule a consultation appointment.
