Hi Boogaloo, Your not havin much luck with replys!!!! I would assume that you would have to get the material yourself as the dressmaker wouldn't know what you like. But first I would go to a dressmaker to see if it is possible to do what you want. I would think you would need a photo or a very good drawing of what you want, then maybe with your measurements taken, they might be able to do something but it may not be cheap and could take a while. There is a dressmaker in Claregalway, ( I dont know the name) she mostly does alterations but she might have some idea if what you want is possible or not, or she might have some contacts as to who could do it. She has a bridal shop in the new "shoppin centre" behind mulhollands bookmakers on the first floor. You could also try going into Hickeys in the Eyre Sq Centre, where they do material, as they might have contacts as to who might be able to help. I wouldnt hold my breath though, unless you can get someone old enough that might have made stuff in the past with out a pattern!!!!! Good luck in your search.
