Every bride has a unique vision of what her dream gown looks like. Whether it’s the style, shape, or pattern of the gown, it can be a long journey to find the perfect one. That’s why an important part of the Modern Trousseau experience is the ability to modify each gown and customize it into the exact version of what the bride is envisioning. Here are some of our top customization options.
Modify Shapes
Finding the perfect shape is an important part of constructing a bride’s gown. The silhouette can be altered to better fit what a bride has in mind. If a fit and flare gown has too much flare, it can easily be modified to flare less; a bride might also prefer to add a longer train on the back. Each modification gets a bride closer to creating the gown of her dreams.
Swap Out Laces
Altering the lace on a gown can be the perfect modification for a bride in love with the shape of a gown but not the details on it. She might prefer lace scalloping over hand-beaded lace, or adding lace straps or even a lace bodice. These adjustments can have an enchanting effect on a gown, bringing a bride’s vision to life.
Add Embellishments
A gown’s beauty can be accentuated by adding extra details. A ribbon belt, a bow, or even duchess-covered buttons can be the perfect touch — taking a gown from simple to breathtaking. Finding the right embellishments is a key part of establishing a bride’s signature style.
Combine Tops & Bottoms
Mixing and matching tops and bottoms is one of the more unique customizations we offer. Brides who have a very specific idea of what they want can work with our stylists to determine which combination best suits them, allowing brides to design a gown that is truly unique to them.
Alter Necklines
The neckline is such a focal point of every gown. Whether a bride prefers a more modest neckline, a deep V-neck, or strapless is entirely her preference. If a bride finds the gown of her dreams but the neckline isn’t her style, no problem — it can be effortlessly customized to suit her vision.
Each and every customization is handcrafted with love in our USA-based atelier. Because everything is made in America, we’re able to offer a notable timeframe along with the quality and craft put into each gown.
