How d'Italia Creates Your Dream Wedding Dress

1

Book your design appointment

Book an appointment at our bridal shop. Our bridal consultants and designers can go over your inspiration for your dream dress and create sketches of your gown. When you tell us about your dream wedding dress, we’ll take note of everything, from the silhouette to the fabrics you love. We’ll take your measurements, finalise your preferred materials and your dress’ design elements so we can start working on your gown.

Let our dressmakers create your perfect gown

To achieve the perfect fit, we’ll first construct your dress using test garments such as toile. Then our skilled team of dressmakers will create your gown using your chosen fine fabrics and laces. We’ll get you to come in for a series of fittings throughout this process so you can be satisfied as your gown comes to life. We want you to be confident through each step of your dress construction and ensure a final product that stays true to your vision.

Final fitting before your big day

Once your gown is finished, we’ll do a final fitting with you to make sure everything is perfect. We’ll make any required final adjustments to your dress, so it’s ready for your big day. Then all that’s left is for you to walk down the aisle in your dream dress!

FAQ

While you can find fashionable off-the-rack gowns, you can rarely ever find one that perfectly fits your unique body type. This is especially true as no one is a perfect standard size. Most of the brides have different body proportions, whether you’re petite, athletic, tall or plus sized. Moreover, designer gowns simply offer a level of customisation that ready to wear gowns don’t. Not only will your gown be made to your exact measurements, you’ll be actively involved in the design process. When you want a dress that encapsulates your style as a bride, couture gowns will give you a perfect fit while allowing you to express your individuality. 

Whether you want to recreate a dress you saw on a celebrity, combine famous designer dress elements into one gown or create a unique number to flatter your figure, a couture experience lets you design your dream dress and realise your exact vision.

The best way to find out is to get measured by a professional. Once you have your measurements, you can compare them to the size chart of the dress you’re interested in.

Finding your exact sizing that follows your unique proportions can be difficult on ready to wear bridal gowns. Couture gowns allow brides the opportunity to have a dress created specifically for their body shape and size. This ensures a perfect fit, which is often not the case with off-the-rack gowns. More importantly, when it comes to style, bespoke gowns offer far more scope for creativity, so you can be sure that your gown will be unique.
