I went to Jill with a skirt that needed to be altered and hoped she could make a top to match. I had loved the skirt before, but her alterations made it perfect in a way I hadnt envisioned. Through conversation and shared inspirations she ended up making me the most beautiful and delicate top to match—I left with a wedding outfit that was truly made for me. She and her team are a pleasure to work with and always a joy to talk to. All of this took place during the pandemic and she managed all of this in just two fittings!

I bought my dream dress from a bridal boutique in downtown Baltimore but when it came in it was several sizes too big and the boutique wanted to butcher the beautiful dress to alter it and charge me a fortune to do it (after they had originally told me a price hundreds less). I was incredibly disheartened until a friend told me to contact Jill Andrews. She is truly an artist and perfectionist- it fit me like a glove and Jill was so reasonable and patient to work with. You can tell she takes so much pride in her work- its not just for show. A week before my wedding I found something wrong with the dress (that I didnt notice originally-not because of anything Jill did) and she told me not to worry that she would fix it immediately. I am so thankful to Jill and for Jennifer who was a dream to work with. Jill Andrews to save the day!

Jill made a lace ballgown for my spring wedding. The dress was absolutely flawless. Her workmanship is spectacular. She worked with me to realize every detail. She hand picked the lace from France. I love Kate Middleton and she found the exact lace from her dress.As the dress was couture it was custom made to my figure and incredibly flattering! Her corsets are amazing We had several fittings so that she could get everything perfect. It could not have fit better. We even added one the week before the wedding to take it in.As much as I loved the dress I also loved spending time with Jill. Her studio is every girls dream! I will be sad not seeing her as much. You can tell how much she loves her dresses and what she does. I trusted her implicitly throughout the process. I cannot recommend her enough!The expense is nothing compared to the craftsmanship you are receiving and the one on one and unlimited fittings. I love Jill Andrews!

Where do I even begin?! My experience with Jill Andrews was really a dream come true.I had searched for quite some time for the dress, but could not find exactly what I was looking for. I met with Jill, showed her a few photos, and felt she immediately understood me. She and Mia patiently helped me find the right fabric, and allowed me to come in for several meetings to try out different options. The finished product was incredible, unique, and exactly what I asked for. Jill captured the mix of Hollywood glam and 1930s style that I had envisioned. She had every detail covered, down to the undergarments. Such a pro. She even altered my mothers veil and whipped up a pair of earrings at my request just days before the wedding!Most importantly, and something that no amount of money can buy, is the peace of mind I felt throughout the process. I knew I was in good hands, and that kind of confidence is priceless during all of the stress of planning a wedding. Jill and Mia were prompt with their communication, and while I know they have hundreds of other clients, I always felt like I was the only one. I loved my studio visits and already am missing them!Thank you for sharing your talent and beautiful art with me Jill!

I went to Jill Andrews Gowns for alterations on a gown I bought elsewhere, which was ordered a size smaller than it was supposed to be. The moment you walk into the spacious, airy studio, you absolutely know that you will be taken care of. Jill and Jennifer are highly knowledgeable, no-nonsense, super cool women, and both are obviously passionate about their craft. They were great at explaining challenges with my gown and their process for problem-solving. I felt like I could ask questions without any judgement, and like I could trust their suggestions completely. Every detail was thoroughly attended to, down to Jill slipping a bag with Ibuprofen in with my shoes, to remind me to take them so my feet wouldn’t hurt. When it was finished, my gown fit like a glove, and I never wanted to take it off (I would literally wear it everywhere if society didn’t have this weird stigma around women wearing their wedding dresses while grocery shopping). I cannot recommend Jill Andrews Gowns enough.

What a fabulous experience. Generally, I hate shopping but in about an hour, Jill sketched out the design of an outfit for one sons wedding. And because theres a second wedding in a month, she figured out how to adjust that first suit to be different for the second event. What great fun! A perfect fit. I may never shop in a regular store again!

Jill altered a 40 year old wedding gown my mother made by hand to fit me perfectly. She is a true artist and I enjoyed working with her as well as her staff.

What can I say, this experience was nothing short of amazing! I was on the hunt for a bridal dress and tried everything from a lace slip dress by Free People, to scoping out dresses amongst the masses at the scary Davids Bridal, to trekking to Georgetown to the J. Crew Bridal only to be unimpressed, and finally stopping by Francescas Bridal in Baltimore.Despite seeing several dresses I liked, I knew I wanted to have mine made. My mother is an avid reader of The Washington Post and had seen an article about Jill and her involvement with a Johns Hopkins team redesigning Ebola suits. I realized that her atelier is located in Hampden just a few minutes from where I live. I contacted her team prior to beginning my search and they let me know the price range and options. I decided to keep looking but ultimately reached out again months later and scheduled an appointment.As soon as I walked through the door I knew it would be a great endeavor. Jill is just the most lovely woman and despite creating intricate, complex, elegant, and stunning dresses was not at all snobbish or intimidating but accessible and spot on with my vision of the gown. She drew a sketch and that was that! Every little detail was incorporated, for the most part on that first day, with neat additions later on during the process. She is such a pro that she guessed by sight my measurements at my first fitting.There were a few tragic, unforeseen events which meant changing appointments, but I was so impressed with Jills utter dedication to her clients. The JAG team was always focused on the final product and their continued expert pacing. I couldnt have asked for a better experience when working with Jill and Sarah. They also do mix + match separates, fascinators, and alterations. The price of a Jill Andrews couture gown is SO worth the service, overall experience and final product!

I have never felt cooler or more beautiful as I did in that dress. I was a little overwhelmed at the time of my wedding and I never properly thanked Jill and Sara for all the time they took with me and the way they made my vague idea -- not too long, full skirt, blue shoes? -- into a dress Ill always love. I wish I could wear it every week.
