PLEASE NOTE: It takes roughly four to eight weeks (starting from the date you return this form to us) to make our basic budget package gowns and separates, and longer for the more elaborate garments. If you are in a rush, please notify us immediately to make sure we can meet your deadline. Full payment must be received before we can begin work. By returning this order form, you have agreed to all of the terms and policies listed on our FAQ page. If you do not understand any portion of this form, email us and we'll be happy to help you. Please do not leave any sections blank,
including the deadline for completion, name and address.

*never* send "guessed" measurements
*If you are dieting, please don't send "hopeful" measurements
*Please don't make guesses as to how much of a "cinch" your bodice should have. Your bodice will not fit if you do this, because we always figure a "cinch" measurement into your bodice construction, and if you send us a measurement smaller than your *actual* measurement, your bodice will be too small.

PLEASE NOTE: Our dress forms only go up to a 54" bustline. Apologetically, we are not able to fill custom orders for bust measurements largger than 54" unless the customer agrees to purchasing our mock-up fitting service to ensure an accurate fit. This service requires an additional 8 weeks, so be sure to order well in advance of your required delivery date. We cannot offer rush orders for those with a bust measurement larger than 54". We never charge more to construct a gown to a larger size, and any person, any size may purchase a mock-up service, but we do require anyone with a bust measurement larger than 54" to submit a mock-up and purchase the mock-up service at $50. Please notify us before ordering if your bust measurement is larger than 54" and we will be delighted to assist you in ordering a mock-up service.

Please list all changes, details, notations, for example: "Exactly as pictured, without the lace." Simple garments will not require very much information, while more elaborate garments will require highly detailed information. Be sure to make notes of *every* detail, or it will not be added. This is the only form we work from during construction, so be very thorough and double-check your details. We do not work from past emails when doing construction, because very frequently, many changes are discussed throughout the email process. All *Final* decisions should all be noted on this form. Any details not mentioned on this form will be omitted from your ordered:

Measurements -

you can send one of two measurements:

A) If you plan to *always* wear a corset under your bodice, put your corset on, and measure with the corset on - but be sure to TELL us that you are sending corseted measurements.

B) If you do NOT plan to wear a corset, send us your actual measurements - but if you plan to wear special undergarments - like a specific bra, or a body shaper, be sure to wear it when you take the measurements. So basically you will need wear for measurements, whatever undergarments you plan to wear under your gown.

Are the following measurements taken with a corset ON, or are they ACTUAL measurements?

Remember, we completely rely on you to provide us with very accurate measurements - if you send the wrong measurements, your bodice will not fit. If you are unsure about providing accurate measurements, have a professional bridal shop take them for you. If you send us inaccurate measurements, we will not be obligated to alter it for you, so please double-check everything.

MEN: Chest at fullest point:

PLEASE NOTE: We no longer offer hemming services as a standard. Hemming should ALWAYS be done while the customer is wearing the gown, and to have the garment hemmed any other way may result in an uneven hem (hems are longer in some areas than others, and are not always straight with the fabric grain.) Therefore we highly recommend having your skirt hemmed locally after you receive your order. If you have no way of having your gown hemmed, we can offer a straight, machine-sewn hem, but we cannot guarantee it to be accurate, since all hems should be done only while the customer is wearing the gown.

With this in mind, do you want us to hem your skirts?
