Custom Dress Design

We offer a 30-minute complimentary consultation (by appointment only) via virtual call. Here we will get to know your vision for your big day, and help you on your journey to achieving it. We will use our existing designs as a reference, as well as have our current and latest collections available to try-on to better understand your style, and help visualise and materialise the perfect custom dress for you. Nikki will take your measurements, and create a rough sketch of a first draft design during this consultation.

After your dress design is finalised and exactly to your liking, Nikki will select and showcase the best-suited fabrication for your dress. If detailing like lace, embellishments, and beading are part of your final design, those options will also be presented to you either by mail or virtually. This is a fun step in the process, and integral to deciding the movement and feeling of your dress.

You get to relax and sit out this step. After perfecting the draping and design details on a dress form, Nikki will create your unique dress pattern based on your measurements. We will create a copy of your dress with an alternative fabric (either muslin or toile) that can be adjusted perfectly to your body at your first fitting, making sure we get everything just right before we start creating your final dress. 

Depending on the custom package you are choosing, we offer 2-4 sessions of complimentary fittings. You are probably going to worry about how the dress will turn out before your fittings, but we are here holding your hands and taking it step by step with you. At your first fitting, you will try on your dress-copy so we can make adjustments right away and mark necessary changes while we are with you. We will also place the lace patterns on the toile sample so that you and Nikki can finalise placement and tweak any last-minute design choices.

Throughout your next fittings up until your final one, we will make any and all adjustments needed to ensure you not only look but feel incredible in your dress no matter how small the detail. Thanks to Nikki’s vast experience in the couture bridal industry, we are sure you will love this experience. After your final fitting, you will, at last, be able to take your gown home as you await your big day- ready to be cherished for a lifetime to come!

Please note, due to the nature of the custom bridal process we can only allow for a limited number of brides per year. Please inquire as soon as possible with your (potential) wedding date to determine the possible wait time.
