We're based in the heart of Islington, London, and proud to serve brides across the city and beyond.

Our Design Process & What Influences Your Gown's Price

1

Initial Consultation & Sketching

This 60-minute session helps us understand your vision, body shape, and budget. We'll explore fabrics and initial design concepts.

2

Pattern Drafting & Toile Creation

We meticulously draft a unique pattern to your measurements, then create a calico 'toile' (mock-up) for your first fitting. This ensures the perfect silhouette before cutting into precious fabrics.

3

Fabric Sourcing & Embellishment

The choice of silks, laces, beading, and embroidery significantly impacts the final cost. We offer a curated selection of materials from European mills, with options for various budgets.

4

Handcrafting & Multiple Fittings

Each gown is painstakingly constructed by our small team of 3 skilled couturiers. Typically, 3-5 fittings are required to achieve impeccable fit and finish, spaced out over 4-6 months.

FAQ

What's included in the price of a bespoke gown?

Are there payment plans available?

Yes, we typically require a 50% deposit to begin work, with the remaining balance split into two payments: 25% at the first fabric fitting and the final 25% upon completion and before the final collection. We can discuss alternative arrangements if needed.
