Bespoke Bridal - Why So Special?

Like so many things in this modern world, when it comes to choosing a wedding gown, there are many choices. Off-the-rack, made-to-measure, bespoke and couture are some of the terms frequently used (often incorrectly), adding to the confusion.
Ella Moda specialises in custom-made and bespoke bridal. 
For our custom-made service, each season Ella Moda showcases a collection of sample gowns, which brides can then view in the salon. Once a gown from the collection is selected, the original design is made to the brides measurements. This process allows for some customisation in terms of design, fabric selection and colour.
Ella Moda's bespoke service offers brides a chance to sit down with a Design Consultant and discuss an original vision for a dream wedding gown. Pictures and sketches inform the process and fabric is often pinned and draped by hand as the bride makes each decision, under the professional guidance of a Designer.
Both our custom-made and bespoke services require a bride to be present at a number of fittings. The wedding gown is first 'toiled' in calico to ensure fit and style. From here the final fabric is cut and the gown constructed over a period of time, piece by piece, detail by detail. 
Having something made exclusively for oneself not only offers a beautifully finished product but a highly enjoyable process where the focus is entirely on the bride and achieving her dreams.
