About this vendor
Based in Brooklyn, NY, Venchy Couture is a wedding dress design and alteration company. Founder Venera Tyan is a stylist, designer, and image consultant. She wants her store to become a place where people can find a one-of-a-kind piece, or help their existing clothes fit perfectly.
Throughout her journey to opening Venchy Couture, Venera gained experience in all manner of places. On moving to the Big Apple in 2014, she immediately set out to make a name for herself. While working in television, Venera started designing clothes for people in the art and film industries. From this, she evolved to collaborating with haute couture design houses. Marchesa was just one of those renowned brands. These experiences, combined with an education from University Of The Arts London, encouraged her to open this boutique fashion studio.
Gowns from Venchy Couture showcase Venera’s diverse past experiences. She and her team welcome you to a free consultation, where you can discuss any thoughts you might have about your gown’s silhouette or material. A hand-embroidered veil or chic cape adds a final touch of sophistication. Their extensive menu of alterations also extends to formalwear, ready to help your wedding party look their best.

I am so happy I chose Venus to do my bridal alterations for my August wedding. She is an impeccable seamstress and really knows how to tailor a dress to suit the body of the person...
wearing it. I appreciated how warm and patient she was throughout all of my fittings, even when I attended with guests for second opinions. The cost was a little bit more than I had budgeted for alterations, but was still reasonable for the NYC area and the level of craft I received. My dress was beautiful when I bought it, and Venus somehow made it even better! It was also easy to get to her midtown showroom via public transportation, which I appreciated as I don't drive.
Venus is amazing - I contacted her about a hem and bustle for my secondhand beaded gown, and her pricing options on her website gave me an idea she might be affordable. After being...
quoted $600-800 sight unseen from other vendors, she had me come in for a consult that was very relaxed and pleasant and she quoted me far less than what I was expecting. She even discouraged me from making other changes to the dress, arguing that it fit me correctly already. We did two rounds of fittings (she didn't make me wait till the last minute either) to get the hem just right and she placed the beading in such a way that it was far more beautiful than the original hem. The bustle was simple and attractive and super easy to take up and down on my wedding day. She was so lovely to work with and the gowns in her shop are stunning so I would definitely trust her to do custom work as well if that was your inclination. Cannot recommend highly enough. (She's in Midtown Manhattan now, garment district.)

n her craft but an absolute pleasure to work with. The dress fits perfectly and the entire process was seamless - transparent pricing, all appointments/fittings were completed well and on time, and she was easy to reach with any questions or need to reschedule. With all the planning that a wedding can entail, it was nice to have this be one thing that was easy and stress-free! I highly recommend going to Venchy Couture - you will be so happy you did.
Incredibly kind and helpful. I walked in without a vision, and she helped me to incorporate parts of my Ghanaian culture into my wedding dress. It turned out beautifully. I’ve neve...

experience was flawless, fun, and affordable. From the moment Venus welcomed me into her space I knew I would be in good hands. She turned my dress into a work of art! I would recommend Venus to anyone anytime. Thank you so much, Venus!!! I adore you!
Venus I can’t thank you enough. I originally purchased my wedding gown in a sample size (size 12). Venus came to my rescue, helping me alter my dress to my size (size 0) and body. ...
It took a lot of work but she was punctual when it came to our fittings. Usually fittings can be stressful for a bride but with Venus expertise and professionalism, my anxieties went away. My dress was ready just on time. Thank you for helping me with my dress and making it such a comfortable experience!
I absolutely recommend Venus, 110%. She pulled together two GORGEOUS dresses for me after having a bad experience with another dress maker. She’s an absolute angel and I will defin...
