Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I book my custom gown consultation?

We recommend reserving your spot 6 to 9 months in advance for custom bridal gowns and 3 to 5 months in advance for custom prom or formal dresses to allow time for design, fittings, and intricate hand-detailing.

Do I need an appointment to visit the studio?

Yes! All consultations and fittings are held by appointment only to ensure every client gets personalized, dedicated attention.
