HI! I’m Rachel Natali and welcome to Change of A Dress!!

Meet the Owner

… she’s also the receptionist, the financial advisor, the seamstress, the PR rep, the coordinator, the marketing department, the designer, and the mastermind behind Change of A Dress.

Hi and Hello!! My name is Rachel Natali, and I am a Sewciopath: (noun) One who has gone insane due to their love of sewing. After 15+ years of starring at beautiful gowns, I still find myself falling in love with altering each and every one.

When I started Change of A Dress, I set out to create an all-inclusive, positive, and comfortable alterations experience for every bride out there.

Every single part of a wedding should be handled with the utmost care, and that includes alterations! My expertise in sewing and working on bridal gowns will guarantee you have the perfect fit and look the best on your wedding day! Altering a wedding takes specific skills and knowledge and that is exactly what I deliver.

I pride myself in delivering exceptional work to every client I work with, and I strive to create an inviting space where clients of all shapes, sizes, colors, and genders feel comfortable. I am an all-inclusive business, supportive of all LGBTQIA+ peoples and beyond! I have also been nominated for the top seamstress in Northern Colorado! (results come out Dec 1st!!)

I work with a number of bridal boutiques all over Colorado and have built and created great relationships with all of them. They include; Dora Grace Bridal - Encore Bridal - Abeille Bridal - Dani West - Casa Bianca - LUV Bridal - Grace Loves Lace

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or inquiries!

Can I give more than 5 stars??

“Rachel was absolutely incredible! My dress started out with sleeves and was a good 4 sizes too big. She completely reconstructed the back of my dress and made it look perfect from the big day! She was very professional, timely, honest, confident and so fun to work with! Forever grateful to her”

- Dora Busch

AMAZING WORK!

“Rachel is super sweet and accommodating! My dress is perfect, and she listened very well too what I wanted, and she provided just that. I highly recommend using her for your dress alterations.”

- Shelbie Borgman

They say she’s a wizard

“Rachel was so personable, kind, and really cared about exactly what I wanted! She had an exceptionally clean studio, always answered the door with a smile, and allowed me to bring a friend to a fitting too! She listened to my requests and made beautiful alterations to my wedding gown in record time!! She also helped me choose a bustle style and gave me suggestions for storage and care of my dress before the big day. I would recommend her to everyone!!! She is a magic-maker 💃🏼”
