We are pleased to introduce our new offering of bespoke sizing for our standard designs, with an estimated lead time of approximately 2 to 3 months. This comprehensive package includes a measuring appointment, 2-3 fittings, and a final pick-up appointment. Furthermore, we are delighted to accommodate bespoke design changes upon request, with pricing provided upon inquiry.
Here is how it works:
INITIAL CONSULTATION
The initial consultation aims to comprehend your preferences. You may already have a distinct design concept or several intriguing ideas in mind. Throughout the appointment, we will exchange visual references, sketch initial thoughts, and discuss fabric choices. Subsequently, we will create a design brief based on our agreed-upon decisions during the meeting, which will require your approval.
FINALISING YOUR DESIGN
Based on the information exchanged during the initial consultation, we will prepare and present one or more designs for your consideration. In a subsequent meeting or call, we will refine the design until it meets your exact specifications. Once we have reached a consensus on the final design, we will proceed with creating your toile.
TOILE FITTING
A toile serves as a "mock-up" of your garment, typically made with a more affordable fabric, providing you with a realistic preview of the fit and style. Your toile fitting will occur at our seamstress' atelier, where you will meet our head seamstress for your initial fitting.
During the toile fitting, you have the opportunity to thoroughly examine every aspect of the design and fit. We recommend bringing the underwear and shoes you intend to wear on your wedding day to ensure the proper alignment of undergarments with your outfit. This will also allow our seamstress to adjust the dress, skirt, or trousers to the ideal length. Any modifications to the design or adjustments to the fit will be discussed and agreed upon during this fitting.
SHELL FITTING
This marks your ultimate fitting before the completion of your outfit. During this appointment, you will try on the garment when it is approximately 80% finished, providing an opportunity to finalize any minor adjustments before the dress is fully completed. Additional fittings will be arranged and scheduled accordingly. For bespoke commissions, we typically recommend a range of 3-4 fittings.
DELIVERY OF YOUR BESPOKE OUTFIT
Our bespoke pricing encompasses an initial consultation for comprehensive measurements, one fitting to ensure the desired fit before the dress is completed, and an additional appointment for trying on and approving the finished dress. If any additional fittings are requested to make further alterations or changes, a fee of € 50 per appointment will apply.
