Many brides today want to look unique, different from any other bride out there. It’s hard to do that when most brides typically shop at the same stores you are looking at for your wedding dress. There are only so many dresses, and in my opinion, not every body type out there looks good in a strapless wedding dress. Many brides now are looking for ways to design their own wedding dresses, and it's a good thing. Your wedding dress should reflect you and your personality, which is different and unique from everyone else out there. If you are wondering how you can design your own wedding dress, then here some great pointers to get you started.

 

Discover What You Like

A wedding dress is different from any other dress that you will ever wear.  They’re bigger, whiter(!), heavier and more ornate than any other dress.  So if you don’t already know what kind of wedding dresses you like, then go into a bridal shop and try on as many dresses as it takes.  Look at the different necklines, waistlines, and beading, and patterns to help you decide which you like. Bring a notepad and take notes of what you like to help you remember later.

 

Kitset Wedding Dress

You don’t have to have any special software or skills to design your own wedding dress, just ideas or pictures (or both) of what you like.  If you want to make it yourself, send us your picture, answer a few questions, and we'll send you back a kitset quote for your dream gown!

If you don't want to make it yourself then all you need to do is set up a meeting with a dressmaker and take your pictures and notebook of ideas.  A good dressmaker can look at your pictures and be able to copy the different ideas that you have into one dress.  Get a quote from us here.  Once you have found the dressmaker you want to work with all you need to do is choose your fabrics, laces and trims and enjoy the process!

Try these gorgeous, high quality Bridal Silks, Laces, Trims and all the other things you're going to need!
