Create With Us – Your Vision, Our Expertise
Want something truly personal? Our custom design experience is relaxed, collaborative, and fun – we’ll guide you every step of the way and make it super easy.
Step 1: Custom Design Experience – $290 (non-refundable)
This includes:
-
A 1:1 design consultation (in person or virtual)
-
A personalised sketch of your gown
-
Custom measurements taken or guided
-
Fabric and lace sourcing to suit your vision
-
Liaison between you and our team of seamstresses to bring your design to life
We’ll chat through your wedding plans, inspo pics, style, and vision, and lock in all the key details — neckline, colour, train length, fabrics, and more. After this, you’ll receive your sketch and a tailored quote.
Custom gowns generally range from $2,000–$4,000, depending on fabrics, details, and beading. Most gowns take up to 14 weeks from order to arrive at our studio.
If you’re local, your quote also covers final alterations with our trusted seamstress (valued up to $500) — so there are no surprise costs later.
Step 2: Watch Your Dress Come to Life
We’ll start with a mockup (the foundation of your gown) to get the structure, shape, and fit right. This first version is usually made from offcuts or lining fabric, so it won’t be your final colour or include every detail. You’ll receive photos to approve before we move forward.
From there, we’ll keep you updated as your dress comes together — lace placement, beadwork, and finally… your finished gown!
Each custom design is made to your measurements. Small tweaks are still common once the dress arrives, but if you’re local, any final alterations with our trusted seamstress (typically valued up to $500) are included in your quote — so there are no surprise costs later.
Step 3: The Big Reveal!
Your custom design is ready! If you’re local, we’ll book you in for the big moment — trying it on for the very first time. If it needs a little tweak here or there (totally normal, even with custom sizing), our trusted seamstress will take care of the finishing touches for a perfect fit — all included in your quote, no surprises.
Not nearby? No stress! We’ll carefully ship your piece with tracking and check in once it arrives to make sure everything’s just right.
The remaining balance is due when you collect your gown or before it’s shipped out.
Then it’s all yours — ready for the aisle, the dance floor, and the moments you’ll never forget.
