-
Made-to-order (MTO) gowns are made in our Australian Studio and made to your size ranges and shoulder to floor height
-
Your measurements will fall within a pre-determined size range at four to seven different areas on the body to determine the best fit for your shape. For example — a bride may measure an XL bust, L under bust, XL waist and M hip, and we make your gown to the correct size range in each area
-
Each size has a 5cm size range which is a standard variation. Our lace and crepe gowns have a good amount of stretch and support to accommodate any body fluctuations to ensure a great fit on your wedding day. For our silk and satin styles, the 5cm range will accommodate any body fluctuations, however alterations may be part of your journey. We believe making gowns in a 5cm size range is the safest option when ordering a wedding gown.
-
All of your other measurements (heel height, bicep, shoulder to floor etc) will also be used to make your gown to ensure a great fit
-
You will need to provide your measurements 6 months before your wedding date when your gown will go into production. This is referred to as your 'lock-in' date.
-
In the unique circumstance you would like alterations when you receive your gown, we work with highly skilled seamstresses close to your nearest showroom and you can alter your gown at your own cost
-
To order a Made-to-order gown, your wedding date must be at least 6 months away. If your wedding is less than 6 months away, for a fee, we can produce your gown as a Priority-made-to-order
-
Please note that on the 1st of August 2022, our Made-to-order timeframes moved to a 6 month period

WHAT IS A SIZE RANGE?
A size range is a 5cm range that your measurements fall within and are taken at four to seven, different areas on the body to determine the best fit for your shape.
For example — a bride may measure an XL bust, L under bust, XL waist and M hip, and we make your gown to the correct size range in each area.
