Giselle Ghofrani

Giselle is the owner and founder of Belle Atelier.  Born into the world of fashion she worked alongside her mother (The Dress Doctor) from a young age learning the art of sewing and pattern-making.  As she grew older she held positions in design houses like Vera Wang, Marchesa, and J.Mendel.  She decided while at J.Mendel to start her own custom design studio which led her to launch a bridal boutique in Chicago where she carries customizable designers and is honored to carry J.Mendel as well.
