Made to Order


  • Made to Order (MTO) gowns are made specifically for you once you place your order. You have two options when ordering a Made to Order gown; these are MTO Standard Size or MTO Customised. A MTO Customised gown has an additional fee which includes gown variation options such as train length, cup type and is made to your personal size range and height.


MADE TO ORDER STANDARD

  • Our MTO Standard Size gowns are made to a set size (XS to 3XL) shoulder to floor height of 155cm. These gowns have been designed with easy alterations in mind and come with alterations recommendations if tweaks are needed for the desired fit. ​

  • Our MTO Standard Size gowns are made within a 5-month timeframe, and we recommend ordering your gown to arrive 2 months before your wedding date to allow for alterations and hemming if required. Not all gowns are available as Standard Size due to design complexity and intricacy of the gowns style.​

  • To check what best size to order, you can use our International Size Chart below or you can measure your bust, underbust, waist and hip and compare against our Size Range Chart​.


MADE TO ORDER CUSTOMISED

  • For an extra fee, you can customise your gown which includes having your gown made to your pre-determined size ranges based on your measurements at four to seven different areas on the body. For example — a bride may measure an XL bust, L under bust, XL waist and M hip, and we make your gown to the correct size range in each area.​

  • If selecting a customised MTO gown, the gown will also be made to your exact height and you will have gown variation options such as train length, cup support, lining colour and strap type.​

  • You will need to provide your measurements 6 months before your wedding date for your gown to go into production. This is referred to as your 'lock-in' date. If your wedding is closer than 6 months away, we can make your gown faster with a Priority Fee (refer to MTO Priority Customised).

WHAT IS A SIZE RANGE?

A size range is a 5cm range that your measurements fall within and are taken at four to seven, different areas on the body to determine the best fit for your shape.

For example — a bride may measure an XL bust, L under bust, XL waist and M hip, and we make your gown to the correct size range in each area.

Ready to Wear


  • We offer a highly curated selection of styles that are in stock ready to be shipped in 3-5 business days, we call these Ready to Wear (RTW) as they are literally ready to wear down the aisle!

  • Our Ready to Wear gowns are made to a standard dress size (XS to 3XL) and 155cm shoulder to floor height.

  • Due to our sustainability commitment to limit excess fabric consumption and waste, we only have a limited stock available at all times, and not all styles will be available to order as Ready to Wear​.

  • Ready to Wear gowns are priced higher than Standard gowns as they're available for immediate shipment.

  • To check what best size to order, you can use our International Size Chart below or you can measure your bust, underbust, waist and hip and compare against our Size Range Chart​.

  • Some of the samples in our showrooms have been well-loved and may no longer be true to size so best to measure and refer to our simple size charts.
WHY THE GRACE WAY WORKS

We consciously make gowns using stretch fabrics such as lace, crepe, and bias-cut silk because stretch fabric offers versatility and allows for fluctuations in body size.
 
Ready to Wear gowns often require alterations to finesse the fit. Our Customer Experience department can recommend a highly skilled alterations specialist within your local area.
