EVERY Body Welcome at Loulette Bride

When brides come to visit Loulette Bride Studio, we start with champagne, we play dress up, and we get to chatting. I hear the good, the bad, and the ugly of the dress shopping experience, from beautiful brides of all shapes and sizes. Brides who have searched for gowns on Instagram and Pinterest, have gone to try them on at the store, and then are told by the bridal consultant that they are sorry, but this gown can not be made in their size. 

I know. Horrible. But there is a bright side. These lovely ladies then come to Loulette Bride and find out we can make any style in any size with any customization. So, not to toot our own horn, but, ya know, beep beep. 

We all know that the fashion and bridal industries have a size inclusivity problem. If the bridal brand you choose has your size at all, this is how the ordering process typically works:

1. Your bridal shop takes your measurements

2. Based on your bust, waist, and hip measurements, your size is selected off a standard size chart, based on the largest size of those three measurements.

3. Your dress fits-ish? In some spots? More or less?

4. Pay basically the price of another dress for the alterations.

At Loulette Bride, we do things a little differently. We know that every body is different and beautiful in it’s own way, so working off a standard size chart simply won’t cut it for everyone. Some of us are blessed with the boobs, some are blessed with an ass, some are blessed with neither (like myself), or both! It is all gorgeous, and it all deserves to be celebrated. 

Since each and every dress is made to order for you, we are able to customize the pattern of your dress to fit to your measurements as closely as possible. We can make any style in any size, and are able to rework our patterns to be sure your gown fits you like it should.

Beyond customizing your size, we can customize pretty much anything. I know, that opens up a whole lot of options. But it’s true! We love adding sleeves, using your grandmother’s vintage dress, swapping up fabrics, adding a cape, you name it. So, when you come in for your Loulette Bride appointment, you can work with me, the designer, and we can come up with something super fabulous and unique together!

So, in conclusion: we do it all. And we can not wait to work with YOU!
