LO ATELIER

HOW IT WORKS

FROM FIRST IDEA TO FINAL FIT

Every competition dress begins with your ideas. From the first sketch to the finishing touches, we work together to create something that feels uniquely yours.

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

  1. GET INSPIRED

    Collect images of dresses you love, colours that inspire you and details you'd like to include. Together, we'll explore the direction that feels right for you.

  2. THE DESIGN

    Based on your ideas, I'll create sketches for a personal design. We'll discuss the possibilities and agree on the design and price.

  3. LET'S MEET

    We'll meet to explore fabrics, take your measurements and refine the sketches where needed.

  4. THE MAKING

    After ordering the fabrics and rhinestones, I'll create the pattern and the first version of your dress. Embellishments are added later, so we can focus on the fit first.

  5. THE FIRST FIT

    At the first fitting, we'll see how the dress fits and moves. I'll make any necessary adjustments for a beautiful and comfortable fit.

  6. THE FINAL TOUCH

    Next, I'll finish the dress and add the embellishments. At a second fitting, we'll review the finished result together.

MADE WITH YOU,
FOR YOU

We agree on the price beforehand, so you know what to expect. If you'd like to change something or add extra details during the making process, we'll discuss any impact on the price before proceeding.

Payment takes place when your dress is finished.

GOOD TO KNOW

MADE JUST FOR YOU

Because your dress is made especially for you, custom-made garments generally cannot be returned simply because you've changed your mind. If something isn't quite right, please get in touch and we'll work together to find a suitable solution.
