Anna's Custom Gowns & Alterations

Steps to a Custom Gown:Step 1: Contact:Contact me to make an appointment (for wedding projects I recommend starting at least 3 months before the wedding) The total price will include the time spent working on your gown, plus a per appointment consultation fee of $15 per half hour (to the nearest half hour). Wedding gowns start from $500. Step 2: The first appointment. Discuss your project: design, color, materials, and details. Draw sketches, look at magazines, etc. Take measurements. Make an estimate of the final price. If we decide to proceed with your project, there will be a $100 Deposit payable at the first meeting. Step 3: Mock fitting.The mock, made of muslin, helps to adjust the pattern so that your dress will fit perfectly. This is a good time to make changes to your dress.If the mock needs more adjustments another appointment will be needed. Step 4: Dress fitting.Before the dress is finished two to five fitting appointments may be necessary. I will work with you until you are satisfied with your new gown. Please bring shoes and underwear that you will wear with your gown. Step 5: Last appointment.The balance due on your gown is paid. With your permission I would like to make several photos to remember your new gown!
