Begin your bespoke journey with a one-hour consultation guided by our experienced bridal designers. Explore a curated selection of styles, shapes, and luxurious fabrics to discover what flatters your figure and reflects your vision. Bring along inspiration—photos from social media, magazines, or Pinterest—to help us understand your dream gown. Together, we’ll develop and refine your unique design, ensuring every detail is perfect before booking your couture schedule.
Choose from our extensive archive of world-class fabrics, including vintage laces, contemporary silks, hand-beaded designs, and delicate tulles. Our designers will guide you through options that complement your chosen silhouette and style. If you have a specific fabric in mind, we can source it for you. Once selected, your fabric is reserved or ordered, ready for your bespoke creation.
Meet with our Master Patternmaker for precise measurements and technical specifications. Your custom pattern is crafted and cut in calico, forming the first “toile”—a mock-up of your gown. At your initial toile fitting, we assess fit, design lines, and special features, making adjustments to perfect the foundation of your dress. The pattern is then refined, and the gown begins to take shape in our workroom.
Your couture gown is crafted over several months and multiple fittings. After the first toile, we begin assembling your dress, starting with the lining. Each fitting allows us to make precise adjustments, ensuring your gown fits flawlessly and reflects your vision. Specialty fabrics, laces, and embellishments are reviewed and approved as the design evolves. Our team is committed to as many fittings as needed to achieve a perfect fit and exquisite finish.
In the final week before your wedding, your gown is expertly pressed and finished for your last appointment. If any final tweaks are needed, we make them promptly to ensure your dress is absolutely perfect for your special day. Once complete, your bespoke Alexis George gown is ready for you to take home and cherish forever.
