Know your vision
Know what you want, or at least
have several ideas prepared to discuss in your meeting. Will your bridesmaid
wear matching attire or mis-matched? Think about; colours, material, and style
of dresses that you and your bridal party like.
I love when my clients show me inspiration photos! It ensures we are on
the same page with what you want.
What to Wear to A Fitting
Come to your fitting wearing 1 layer
and preferably fitted clothing (leggings, yoga pants, camisole tank/t-shirt).
If you wear layers, that's okay but be prepared to take them off during your
fitting. In order to achieve a perfect fit, measurements need to be as accurate
as possible. Also, try to wear a bra that is closets to the one you plan to
wear with your bridesmaid dress. A bra with more padding will influence your
measurements and how your dress fits in the end.
Stay Open Minded
It’s important to stay open minded
when listening to suggestions or styling recommendations from a Stylist or
Designer. I’ve had clients that are pleasantly surprised when simply trying on
a colour they wouldn’t have otherwise chosen.
Great Things Take Time
Give yourself a minimum of 3 months
to have your dresses made. Not only does this allows enough time for your dress
to be made without rushing, but also important parts of the process like
coordinating our schedules for an initial design consultation meeting and
fittings.
Communicate
If you're going on vacation, be
sure to tell your Designer. If you need your dresses by a specific date, tell
your designer. Communicate what you want in advance while there is lots of time
to plan.
