A bride in the United States ordered both her own wedding dress and the dresses for her bridesmaids from LAM’S. Every design decision and every measurement was handled from a distance.
Measurements sent from the United States
The bride sent her measurements along with a description of what she wanted. LAM’S sent back an illustrated measuring guide and then measured together with her on a video call to cross-check. From that set of numbers the studio drafted a pattern for her alone rather than using a stock block, and sewed to those measurements with no allowance left for alterations. On a remote order, measuring is the step everything else rests on.
Dresses for the whole bridal party
Alongside the wedding dress, LAM’S made the bridesmaids’ dresses too, so that the group would agree in colour and cut when they stood together. Each one was still made to that person’s own measurements.
What she wrote after the wedding
“The dress is beautiful, everyone complimented it, and so many guests asked me for your Facebook.”
Sending everything to the United States
When the dresses were finished, LAM’S photographed them and sent the pictures before packing. They were folded in layers, padded against creasing and wrapped against moisture, with a courier chosen for the route and a tracking number.
How the bride’s dress was made
We send measuring instructions with pictures and take the measurements together with you on a video call; in some cases we ask you to measure again so the two sets can be checked against each other. The pattern is cut for your measurements alone, never from a stock shape, and the dress is sewn exactly to them with no extra fabric left for later alterations — which is why measuring is the most important step. When the dress is finished, before it is packed, we photograph it and send you those pictures: the finished dress, not stages of production. It is folded in layers with anti-crease padding, wrapped against moisture and sent with a carrier chosen for that route, with a tracking number.
