In 1985, while planning her wedding, Aberra scoured the stores to find a simple, refined wedding dress.

Aberra placed an advertisement for custom-made gowns and started her business out of her New York City loft apartment.

In 2007, ABC purchased an Aberra wedding dress for use in the season third finale of Grey’s Anatomy. Also that year, Lincoln hired Aberra to produce a television commercial for their MKX model. In June 2011, WE tv aired Amsale Girls, a reality show taking viewers behind the scenes of Amsale’s Madison Avenue flagship salon and the highly skilled bridal consultants who work to help each unique bride find her perfect dress. Along with the Grey’s Anatomy gowns, Amsale’s dresses have been featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and The View. American Wedding, 27 Dresses, When in Rome, and The Hangover all featured wedding dresses designed by Amsale. While her gowns have been featured on television as well as in films, celebrities have also been fans of Amsale gowns. Aberra dressed such notable women as Halle Berry, Julia Roberts, Selma Blair, Salma Hayek, Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Heather Graham, Lisa Kudrow, Katherine Heigl, Kim Basinger, Heidi Klum, and many others. Amsale also designed the wedding gown for Hilaria Baldwin’s June 2012 wedding to actor Alec Baldwin. She was twice included on Ebony magazine’s “Power 150” list of the 150 most influential African Americans.
