A dressmaker can use a standard home sewing machine, such as a Brother, Singer, or Kenmore, or more expensive brands such as Bernina or Viking. These machines can range from very simple and straightforward, to deluxe with additional options (such as embroidery, stitch options, and various needles and presserfoots).
A dressmaker may also use a serger, which has 4 threads and finishes off raw edges. This looks a bit different, since the spools of thread are larger.
A dressmaker might also use an industrial sewing machine. This is a bit heavier, usually attached to a table, and probably only has a few stitching options. However, it's sturdier and can handle heavier fabrics and more frequent use.
