MADE-TO-MESURE
The sketch
A dress is born from the interactions between the designer and the bride-to-be.
On the first appointment, the designer listens to her client’s wishes while trying to capture her personality.
The bride-to-be tries on different “tops”.
Following the draping technique, Cécile shapes the beginning of a bodice and the structure of a skirt, adding lace, guipure, or a sleeve if she wishes to.
This muslin guides her in the conception of a unique dress and in choosing the right fabrics to create a unique dress. It is followed by the outline of a first sketch.
The client can start imagining what the dress will look like.
Fittings
The first fitting purpose is to outline the initial version of the bodice. The general movement of the dress is generally found during the 3rd fitting.
​
The made-to-measure wedding dress is finally coming to life!
Each dress requires several appointments:
from 4 to 5 fittings
depending on the chosen fabrics.
