All of our gowns can also be made to measure.
If you would like a custom size simply email or call us and we will send you a form.  You will then take this form along to a dressmaker or seamstress to have yourself professionally measured.  Once the form is complete simply email it back to us and we will have the gown made to your exact measurements.

Made to Measure service can be purchased here http://www.dressofyourdreams.com/category52_1.htm


IMPORTANT!
We highly recommend that you have your measurements taken by a professional dressmaker or seamstress, so that your measurements are exact.
This will avoid any disappointment of a gown not fitting you properly.
It will be your responsibility to provide us with the correct measurements as these will be used to manufacture your gown.
Please note - Gowns that are made from the wrong measurements supplied by you cannot be returned or refunded.

TIPS - DO NOT WRAP THE TAPE TOO TIGHTLY AROUND YOU, YOU WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE SO JUST LOOSEN THE TAPE A LITTLE.  DON'T FORGET THAT YOU WILL ALSO NEED TO SIT IN YOUR GOWN!

 This is the smallest part of your waist. Typically it's an inch or so above your belly button. Also known as the natural waistline.

This is the widest part of your hips, across the hipbone. Measurement is taken approximately 7 inches below the natural waistline. This measurement is not needed for full gowns.

NATURAL HEIGHT
Your height from head to toe.

HOLLOW TO HEM
 Start the tape at the hollow at the base of your neck and measure down to where you want the hem.
