How to Buy a Couture Gown Over The Phone?

Ashley, on March 21, 2022 at 12:28 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 4



I love a gown I just saw on Instagram by a high-end designer in another country. I am in Florida and the closest bridal salon that carries this designer is in North Carolina. Can I order my dream gown over the phone? If so, what questions should I be prepared to answer?

    You can order a dress over the phone, but it’s pretty unusual to do so. You’ll need your measurements (bust waist hips), the date of your wedding, and credit card/payment information. They will probably also need your email, and they will likely email you a contract stating that they don’t do returns or exchanges.

    So I ordered my dress from a designer in the UK after I fell in love with his designs on Pinterest and Instagram. We set up a Zoom meeting to consult. During that time he showed me dresses, explained the process and I told him about my body type. We then designed a dress together. I got my measurements from the seamstress I'm using for alterations. The process went really well. I got my dress in and it looks amazing! I think as long as you are confident in the dress and them as a designer I say go for it.

    I've ordered a dress directly from a designer using whatsapp! I got my measurements done by a seamstress and a fee weeks later I had a dress that fit me perfectly!


    You just really need to find a good place to get measured really!

    Would you be open to the idea of traveling to NC? Lol seems crazy but I traveled to New York for my dress and I’m in FL.
