When should I place my dress order?

We recommend ordering your dress between 1 year and 6 months before your wedding. The earlier you secure your dress, the more choices you'll have. Custom-made dresses require the longest lead time (6 months - 1 year). Our made-to-measure collection typically takes 3 - 6 months. Express production is available for select models and can be completed within up to 4 weeks, but it comes with an additional cost. For those who are feeling exceptionally spontaneous, there's also the option to purchase a ready-made sample directly off the rack. However, please keep in mind that even in this case, some time may be needed for adjustments.
