Wedding Dress Alterations

A gown bought off the rail is a starting point, not a finished garment. We take in, let out, re-cup, re-hem, re-bone and re-balance — and we rebuild inherited gowns so a mother's or grandmother's dress can be worn again without looking borrowed.

Lead time — Six to ten weeks, depending on the work.

What's included

  • Full fit assessment
  • Bodice & side-seam reshaping
  • Cup & internal corsetry rebuild
  • Hem, train & bustle work
  • Strap, sleeve & neckline changes
  • Heirloom restoration & re-lining

How it runs

We begin with a video call, then a measurement appointment — in the Windhoek atelier, or with a seamstress near you whom we brief directly. Nothing is guessed and nothing is self-measured.

From there you're shown the work in progress at every stage, and you approve fabric, fit and finish before the gown is pressed, boxed and couriered insured to your address.
