The Process

INITIAL CONSULTATION

You will have a personal hour-long consultation with Juliette and Alice to talk through the occasion, and your style, fabric and colour choices. A $250 fee applies to this consultation, which is redeemable against your piece should you decide to proceed. From this consultation, Juliette will create a hand-drawn sketch of your piece to be signed off by you, and from which the toile is made. At this point you should feel confident to decide if Juliette Hogan Bespoke is the right choice for your occasion

FIRST FITTING

We will have made a toile (calico) version of your dress in your standard size and we will fit the dress to you. Allow 45 minutes.

SECOND FITTING

At this point, we will have made your piece in your chosen fabric. It will be unhemmed, and shoes will need to be brought along. Allow 30 minutes.

FINAL FITTING

All alterations and hemming will have been completed. You will have a final try on with shoes to ensure everything is perfect. Allow 30 minutes.

ADDITIONAL FITTINGS

Extra fittings outside the above will incur an additional charge.

To Enquire

As each garment is made to order, we invite you to get in touch to begin the conversation. Please allow 5 working days for a response.
