My name is Jesse Junko Beardslee and I am a Sustainable Style Advocate, designer and seamster. I make Custom Wedding Dresses among other things. I work with a bride for about a year leading up to her Wedding Day co-designing, pattern drafting, draping, prototyping, sample making, fitting, re fitting, and the creating the actual gown. It’s a long and lovely process! I’m pictured with my sewing machine Lu, at @hectorhandmade, the Gift Shop and Gallery I co-own and conduct consultations and fittings at. This sewing machine (1930’s Singer Featherweight) has been hard a work making masks lately; But has sewn over 50 formal gowns. It was gifted to my husband‘s Great Aunt Louise. The original bill of sale was still in it! I learned how to clean and maintain it and I absolutely adore this tried and true machine! Unlike most other manufacturing, garment construction technology still relies on a human and a basic machine. The more basic the better if you ask me! 🧵 ✂️ 👰🏻 👗 . . . #meetthemaker #imadeyourclothes #imadeyourweddingdress #imadeyourmask #whomademyclothes #whomademyweddingdress #whomademymask #singerfeatherweight #weddingdressdesigner #customwesdingdress #customfashion #fashionrevolution #weddinggram #slowfashion #sustainablestyle #designer #seamster #advocate (at Hector Handmade) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_QOQOVDzT4/?igshid=phorzvj74dbb

If you're planning a wedding and looking for something you just can't find in stores to wear down the aisle I would love to help create your dream dress, either from scratch or by redesigning an existing garment. Time requirements are specific (1 year for custom, 3 months for vintage redesign) and the details are laid out the site. Reserve my services today by making your down payment online to save up to $100! Upon booking we will schedule our style consultation either in person at the shared studio space at the gift shop and gallery I co-own in Hector, New York on Seneca Lake @hectorhandmade or over the phone. Scroll through our IG feed to see examples of my bridal work in "Wedding Row" (every third image is a #WeddingGram) 👰🏽 ✂️ ♻️ 🌿 💐 . . . #weddingdresssale #customweddingdress #diyweddingdress #vintageredesign #madeinny #madeinusa #americanmadeweddingdress #weddingdressdesigner #whomademyweddingdress #greenbride #alternativebride #ecobride #sustainablewedding #sustainablebridal #ethicalbridal #ethicalapparel #sustainablefashion #slowfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/B5nc3jiFRo9/?igshid=2bx2xuvt0r6b

Ever wonder, "#WhoMadeMyWeddingDress?" It's such an important garment, and kind of frivolous when you get right down to it. I mean, the most extravagant and expensive dress many women ever purchase, and then worn for just one day?! Was someone taken advantage of or put in danger to create it? Be curious. Find out. Do something. Be the change, source responsibly, consider Made in America. I made my wedding dress, and several other customs ranging from simple sheath to beaded opulance, it would be an honor to make yours! 👰🏻 ✂️ 💖 . . . #JessicaCharles #Regram #weddinggram #whomadeyourweddingdress #custombridal #zerowastewedding #handmadewedding #madeinamerica #madeinusa #madeinny #responsibility #bethechange #socialwelfare #fairtrade #workersrights #laborlaws #fashionrevolution #fashionrevolutionweek #carewhatyouwear #fightwithfashion #weddingdress #trendyweddingdress #awkwardconversation #conservation (at Themis and Thread)

Simply stated, I have savored every stitch. ✂️ The extreme pleasure it has been to create this particular wedding dress is hard to explain. A custom gown is a long journey, and creating covetable fashion is the closest thing I'll ever get to having a child. I feel like most pieces of clothing I make are like my children who I am sending off into the world. Much like getting sad when you're coming to the end of a good book, I will long for this project when it is complete. Thank you @adoniger for co-designing such a gem! Thank you @shanana2793 for being on deck and giving me the opportunity to start another special custom gown this week! Next available custom gown booking is this Autumn! 👰🏻 ✂️ 💖 . . . #weddinggram #thimble #needleandthread #customdesign #custombridal #seamstress #whomademyweddingdress #bridalfabric #toolsofthetrade #silverthimble #antiquethimble #customweddingdress #springbride #handmadebride #designer #madeinny (at Themis and Thread)

Bra cups, sequins and tulle - vital components to Jamie K’s #StarGoddessGown! After a design is decided we order the final fabric immediately because things run out of stock and dye batches differ. My Custom Bridal Clients love seeing a collection of fabric transform into their dream dress! Jamie’s fabric selection was just 👌🏽 Originally we had planned to just make a fabulous skirt for her to wear over a bodysuit; But everything she tried was a fail … so I got some cups and started designing a bodysuit! Flow along to see how it all comes together! Custom Fashion is a really expansive process where I get to make my clients dreams come to life! 👰‍♀️ ✨ 🪡 . . . #customfashion #sparkletulle #sequinedtulle #sequinedfabric #sequins #bracup #designer #dressmaker #sewist #seamster #fashiondesigner #dreamdress #dreammaker #dreamweaver #magic #fashionmagic #custombridal #customfashion #weddingdressdesigner #imadeyourweddingdress #imadeyourclothes #whomademyweddingdress #americanmadeweddingdress #flxfibers #flxfashion #designadress (at Themis and Thread) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc29YxsuEXy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
