I have seen these dresses priced at $400USD to make WITHOUT fabric (fabric costs can be anything up $200.00).
At that price you definitely won't get the options that I give you. Fittings? Dressmakers measure you and work from measurements.....your first fitting will be to take measurements (easy enough to do yourself), and you will have another fitting for very minor or usually no adjustments - fittings will cost $50.00AU per fitting. I find fittings a waste of time and money on your behalf. I have made these dresses easy fitting so as to allow for approx 2-3 inches expansion.....or you can decrease the size also. Simply the mid section can be expanded or decreased....you will get maximum wear out of my dresses.
FITTINGS AVAILABLE FOR WEDDING DRESSES.
This is ideal for the Historical/Period themed wedding or to your favourite clubs who dance your nights away to the rhythmns of the 18th Century.
