Process

At the beginning of every custom piece is a conversation between me and the client, where we meet one-on-one to share ideas and dream up your ideal design. From there, I craft the piece with great care and attention to detail, involving you in each step of the process. From choosing fabrics to refining silhouettes, we work closely together to bring your vision to life.

It's best to start this process at least six months in advance to ensure we have the time and space to create your piece with the attention it deserves. Read below for more specific details on the steps involved.

1. Consultation

This is where we begin. During our initial meeting, we’ll explore your ideas, timeline, and any inspiration you may have. It’s a chance to get to know each other, and for you to ask questions and see if this process feels right. There’s no pressure to commit — just an open, honest conversation about what’s possible.

2. Design + Measurements

Once we decide to move forward, I’ll begin by drafting your design and taking detailed measurements. We’ll look at fabric options together and finalize the overall concept. This stage is collaborative and flexible — whether you know exactly what you want or are still exploring, I’ll help guide the design to reflect your style and story.

3. Fitting

A series of fittings allows us to perfect every detail. We’ll begin with a simple sample version of your piece to adjust the fit, shape, and proportions. Most garments go through about four fittings, depending on the design. This step is all about precision and refinement — ensuring that your gown feels just right and moves with you beautifully.

4. Finishing touches

Once all fittings are complete and every detail has been refined, your gown is finished by hand with care and precision. It will be pressed, packaged, and ready for pickup or delivery.
