Beaded Wedding Dresses
made to measure
Beading is the clearest way to tell a hand-made gown from a bought one, and the clearest way to tell a good one from a bad one. Beads glued or chain-stitched in a single run come away in handfuls the first time someone hugs you.
How we cut it
Every bead is stitched individually and knotted off in sections, so a broken thread costs you one bead rather than a whole panel. The base fabric is backed where the beadwork is dense so the weight doesn't drag the bodice out of shape.
Evening ceremonies, candlelight, and anyone who wants the dress to catch light.
Dense beadwork adds months and weight. We'll tell you honestly what your date and budget allow.
