Top Tips For Working With Independent Wedding Dress Designers

By Jose Evans


Picking your wedding dress at a salon can be a fun and exciting process. If you like the idea of something completely unique instead, however, you may want to consider working with one of the many independent wedding dress designers who are currently plying their trade. The process is very similar to getting a dress off the rack but there are some differences. Here are some tips that you can use to make sure you find the right designer and get the gown you have always dreamed of wearing.

A designer will often expect, or appreciate, you making some decisions before you come and visit them. They will want to know what kind of wedding you want. Will it be very formal? What location are you using for your ceremony and reception? Keep in mind that all of these things can affect what style of dress will work best for you. Other things that can be helpful to think about include what time of year the celebration will take place and what time of day as well.

A designer will also need to know how much you want to spend. You need to know that a large, ornate gown will often cost quite a bit of money regardless of whether it is a custom design or not. You may want to add to your dress budget if you are working with a designer on a custom garment as there are extra steps involved. A dress that is being created from scratch will need to be created from the pattern up. This takes time and money to do.

You should be willing to keep an open mind when working with a designer. They will usually have a good feel for what styles work with your body type. It is important for you to trust the designer as they will often not have anything for you to try on until your pattern has been cut and a mock gown has been created.

When talking to a designer, you may find that they have several different ways of coming up with your basic dress. Some will have different styles of top and bottom that you can try on. Once you know which ones you like best the designer can then mesh them together. You can pick the material and other design details as well. Others will create custom sketches and the gown will be created using that sketch.

You should be prepared to start the design process quite a while in advance. Often, a designer will need time to create a sketch. Once the basic design has been determined, a working pattern will be created and the gown will end up being made from the working pattern. The final dress will need fittings and alterations to ensure that it looks perfect on your wedding day. All of these steps can take time and you need to factor that in to your plans.

If you are not sure of who to work with you might want to ask brides who have recently married who they used to create their gown. Don't be surprised if many of them wore dresses they found in a salon. You may need to look online and be prepared to travel to meet your designer. This is much more likely if you are living in a smaller town.

Many brides are quite happy to wear a gown that they find in a bridal shop it is not the right choice for every woman. If you want to work with a designer and are willing to put time, money and energy into the process it's possible to get a custom garment for your big day.
