Week of May 11: This Week's Important Announcements: Tariffs and more
Our full collection and any bespoke custom gowns are available in any color or ombre combination. We happily serve clients who found their gown at other fine bridal retailers. Many of our customers that order dyeing services already wore their dress and are upcycling their wedding dress!
Some fabrics will reach a bold jewel tone while some may max out at a pastel. Our process provides peace of mind with a swatch test to ensure you approve of the end result before we move forward with dyeing the full dress. We begin with the end in mind and begin your complimentary zoom consult by reviewing the unique variables to your project.
Poly Tulle
This is perhaps the most resistant fabric we deal with, but with an entire overnight of stirring and an obsene quantity of dye, we got to her goal, Lucky Red!
Poly Mikado
For the reception worth waiting for, this bride wore it white for a small wedding (mid-pandemic) and is giving it an encore with a nod to husband's Chinese heritage.
Nylon Tulle, Poly Lining
By leaving the top layer untouched, this bride collaborated with us to fulfill her vision for a perfect October wedding.
Poly Crepe
This look we achieved with a blush dip, then followed up with a rich orange. The result is an almost neon red we love!
Poly Mikado, Poly Tulle, Organza/Horsehair
Another stubborn project we were able to push to a rich scarlet, with enough dye and extra love!
In your Zoom consult we'll review our expectations for your fabric type, based upon our experience with hundreds of variables. We also developed an estimator tool so you can get a quote for your proejct before we meet. Sometimes a "failed" swatch test tells us that part of the dress will take color while another won't, or that only charcoal might be feasible. Some of our clients knowingly opt to proceed and achieve gorgeous looks! Others use their swatch test results to pivot to a new color.
