💡Buying your wedding dress online?
What to look out for.
1. Research the type of dress that flatters your body shape beforehand to ensure you order a dress that suits you. We can alter dresses, but it is challenging to completely change the dress style without charging for the endless time it takes.
2. Read the reviews of the company. You will find helpful insights into how the company works, whether they are reliable, how their sizing works and the quality of dressmaking.
3. Sizing - remember, countries, like the US, have different sizing. Consider this when you order. We altered dresses last minute that were two sizes too big or two sizes too small because brides forgot about this.
4. Your body shape is between two sizes - we recommend ordering the dress in two sizes and agree with the company that you keep the one with the better fit. Alteration costs tend to stay lower when we downsize rather than enlarge a bridal gown.

French seams for sheer dresses 🪡
🔍 INSIGHT
A FRENCH SEAM 🪡 is used for sheer fabrics ensuring a clean finish of your dress. We maintain it for the best outcome of your alterations. Although it is more expensive, it is so worth it!
Take a look at the pictures - we took in the sides and shortened both dresses.
