Appendix · Frequently Considered
The questions we hear most
Honest answers, written for the bride considering her first appointment. Anything missing — write to us directly.
- How far in advance should I book?
- We recommend eight to twelve months before the wedding. Bespoke commissions take a minimum of six months from first consultation to final fitting; ready-to-wear pieces require at least three.
- What does a Foxxy gown cost?
- Bespoke commissions begin at N$ 38,000 and rise with fabric, hand-beadwork and complexity. Ready-to-wear made-to-measure begins at N$ 18,000. A full quote is prepared after the first consultation.
- I'm travelling from outside Windhoek — can it still work?
- Yes. We work regularly with brides from Swakopmund, Walvis Bay, Oshakati, Rundu and beyond. Fittings are condensed into longer visits, and final adjustments can be done the week of the wedding.
- How many fittings are included?
- Three fittings are standard for bespoke commissions — toile, mid-construction and final. Additional fittings are added at no charge when needed; we don't release a gown until it is right.
- Do you dress bridesmaids and mothers too?
- We do. Coordinating the entire wardrobe through one atelier keeps fabric, fit and finish consistent — and it spares you the most stressful logistics of the lead-up.
- Can I bring inspiration images?
- Always. We design with reference, not from it. Sketches, family photographs, fabric swatches and Pinterest boards are all welcome — they shorten the conversation considerably.
- Do you accept payment in instalments?
- Yes. A 30% deposit secures your date and design; the remainder is split across two further payments tied to construction milestones. Discussed in full at the consultation.
- What if I'm not sure what I want?
- Most brides aren't. The consultation is built for that — two unhurried hours to look, listen, and try silhouettes you may not have considered. No commitment, no obligation to book.
