How to Ensure a Perfect Made-to-Measure Fit

Ensure a Perfect Made-to-Measure Fit gown looks best when it feels effortless. Here’s how we make it simple:

Step 1 – Accurate Measurements

During your first fitting, your stylist will take measurements so the gown can be handmade to your proportions—not an off-the-rack size.

Step 2 – Understand Fabrics and Structure

  • Stiff fabrics like mikado or duchess satin offer structure and can sculpt the figure.
  • Soft fabrics like chiffon or crepe drape easily and work well for brides worried about fluctuating weight.

Step 3 – Build Fit Into the Timeline

Our Tailored to Perfection policy means if your made-to-order gown doesn’t fit exactly at first pickup, we alter it at no extra cost. Small tweaks are normal.

Pro Tip: Because Sunshine Coast weddings often run from hot ceremonies to cooler evening receptions, consider breathable fabrics with built-in structure (structured bodice, lighter skirt). They hold their shape even when humidity rises.
