Fitting Appointments · Vaughan, Ontario
A little preparation goes a long way. Coming to your first fitting appointment with the right items means we can get the most accurate measurements, make the right decisions about your hem length, and give you a realistic quote — all in one visit. Here is exactly what to bring.
This one is obvious, but worth saying: bring the actual dress you want altered, not a similar one. Even if your dress is still in its original bag or box, bring the whole thing. We will take it out and assess it together at the appointment.
This is the most important item after the dress itself. The heel height of your shoes directly affects where your hem needs to sit. If you have not bought your shoes yet, do that first — or at least have a clear idea of the heel height you plan to wear. Bringing the wrong shoes (or no shoes) means we cannot set the hem accurately.
Shapewear, strapless bras, and foundation garments all affect how a dress fits through the bodice and waist. Bring whatever you plan to wear underneath on your wedding day so the alterations are fitted accordingly.
If you are wearing a belt, sash, or heavy jewellery that sits at the waist or neckline, bring those too. They can affect how the dress drapes and moves.
If you have specific ideas about how you want the dress to look — perhaps you have seen a bustle style you love, or you want the neckline adjusted — bring photos. It makes it much easier to discuss your vision and find the right solution.
The same rules apply: bring the garment, the shoes you plan to wear with it, and any undergarments or shapewear. For suits and trousers, bring the shoes and the shirt or top you plan to wear so we can set proportions correctly.
