New Terms...

It has come to my attention that many people are intersted in what I produce and like the work I put out. I am willing to continue to create custom pieces for anyone who comes knowing that this process isn't cheap. I would appreicate that you would give my business the same respect as you would a Forever21, Akira, etc. Everything I create is done solely by myself so I will be charging as so. I have no set rates because everyone wants something different.

Also, although I do say I am a seamstress, it is NOT the same as a tailor. I call myself an artist as well and as one we like to stick to our ideas and not go over things that has already been made. This meaning I do not do alterations.

I would also like to point out way of payment. Unless we have discussed something personally, every custom order that is requested 50% of the payment is due up front cash or via paypal. Pieces from different collections I produce will be sold as if you were shopping online, entire payment will be dus up front. More details of how that process is forth coming.

As always, I am so grateful for those who have supported me and helped me get to where I am today. I am learning that business...is business and I have to treat it that way. Respect my craft....is all I ask.

Ode to BJ

Today I have completed my first official photo shoot!


Fun and quirky yet simple and chic. If you haven't noticed BJ is for Betsey Johnson. She is the one designer that I look up to. Between me being inspired by her work and allowing God to show me exactly what to design...I present to you 'Ode to BJ'






Do you want to own a piece or 2 from this collection?? Go to the BUY HERE tab to place your order!!

Shout out to Antonio Lee for taking these fab photos and my wonderful models, Juel Stanley and Jamila Judon. Check them out on facebook as well as more pics of the shoot on my fan page --> B. Chantel Designs <--

New Pieces

Here's a couple more happy customers =]

~fitted tube dress~


The entire ensemble was simply amazing but I made the top and altered the shorts that were once pants.

They were such happy customers =] I enjoyed creating each piece for them.....are you my next one?

My helping hand

Here's a photo shoot I had a hand in helping sewing and create a few pieces...

In this scene, I altered the leather skirt to be short and added the long train to it.

In this scene, I helped in cutting the original sleeves off and hemming them. Also cut the V on the chest of the dress. Finally I added the longer, laced train to dress.

In this photo, I created the skirt myself =]

Shout out to Antonio Lee for allowing me to have a hand in this awesome editorial shoot. For more pics of it, check out his facebook page in the next couple days!

New beginnings

Hello all and welcome to my business page! I have started a business in designing clothes. It's NOT a line because I want to be a custom designer.

My custom designs and creations are made to order and there are NO SET PRICES. I want each and every customer to feel as though each article of clothing was especially designed for them. I do work well off of pictures and sketches. Even if you only can give my a desciption, I am willing to work off of that!

Now concerning prices. The reason for no set prices is because everything piece is made to order. I DON'T haggle. I'll give you a quote before I begin. If you approve of the price then I'll start.

I will post pictures of things I have done within the week. I look forward to working with you soon =]
