How to choose your custom-made dress?
Having a tailor-made dress made by a tailor-made workshop in Paris or a couture workshop is not necessarily inaccessible. The cost of your dress will depend on your desires and the complexity of the chosen dress, the finishes and the materials you choose. The price of your bespoke outfit or dress will vary depending on the approach taken. Do you have a custom dress project? You do not want to run the shops, contacting a tailor-made clothing workshop or boutique workshop is the right solution. You can even match your accessories.
If you opt for an outfit from the collection that requires reworking it to your measurements, we speak in this case of semi-measurement or half-measurement. The tailor-made creation workshop makes modifications from the initial pattern and makes the adjustments to work it to your shapes. In this case he does not create a pattern from scratch. This way of working requires pattern making skills and body shape expertise to properly fit the garment. In semi-measurement, it is often possible to possibly select another color or a different fabric but keeping the same characteristics as the initial model. The choice of a different material may require adaptations and vary the price depending on the quality chosen compared to the initial model.
Depending on the type of garment, the price can vary from 250 euros for a shirt to 800 euros for a formal dress.
True made-to-measure implies that we create a model from scratch, that is to say that we accompany the client on the creation of the model and the choice of fabric at first, then we create a pattern of A to Z, then a fitting canvas before making the final outfit or dress. In this case, it is an exclusive creation of a piece entirely designed and made for you in the fabric of your choice which respects your line. This type of made-to-measure can remain within reasonable budgets and is perfect for having an exclusive, quality piece made in the material of your choice for an event, a wedding or a cocktail party.

The first appointment allows the fashion designer to meet you, discuss and assess your needs and the context for which you are requesting this made-to-measure piece. This appointment is very important, it allows you to understand your tastes, the assets you want to highlight and the style you like, but also the materials and colors. Fittings take place to see what suits you, what you don't like at all, the designer gives you the necessary advice according to your morphology and the context of the event. She makes one or more sketches of the model of your choice and can also offer you models that you would not have thought of and surprise you. At this stage, a selection of colors and models is made. Measurements are also taken with a view to making the pattern.
As soon as the drawing is validated, the designer will draw up an estimate, according to your request, specifying the price, the deadline and the conditions of realization: a signature and we move on to the next step...
From your measurements, the designer creates the pattern for your tailor-made outfit. Then, she makes a canvas, that is to say your creation in a cotton canvas, which will confirm your measurements, the proportions of the outfit and definitively adapt the model to your style. During the first fitting, you try on this cotton canvas which corresponds to the outline of the shape of your dress only. You have to keep a little imagination and keep the idea of the final model in mind because it is a raw fabric, the cut in the final fabric will come in two stages. This is an important validation step since we validate or alter the fit according to your measurements, the proportions of the garment, the lengths but also the ease.
Once the canvas has been validated and the model and the fabric are to your liking, we can then start making the model in the right texture.
As soon as your fabric is validated, the making of your model by an experienced seamstress can be launched at the workshop in the material of your choice. The pattern is adjusted or reworked from the final canvas. The fabric is then cut and then the pieces assembled for the production in the workshop of your dress or ensemble. Once this work is done. The second appointment allows you to try on the dress before the final finishing touches. This fitting allows you to check that the dress fits well and see if there are any small alterations to be made. We then adjust the final length and validate the final finishes of the made-to-measure dress. A third appointment can be scheduled if there are major touch-ups.
