1.1 Finding a dressmaker
Choosing a good dressmaker takes skill... There’s more involved than running a finger through the phone directory, choosing a name, and calling to ask, “How much does it cost to have My Dream Gown made?” That’s like asking someone “How long is string?” The answer is “How much do you want to pay?” So much depends on design, cut, and fabric. It also depends on whether you want something exclusive or to use a commercial pattern. Better to say, “I'm thinking of having my wedding dress made. Please may I book a consultation?" Most dressmakers do this at no charge, though some may charge for the consultation and then discount that charge from your final account.
