Custom Sizing for the Perfect Fit

At Vinka Design, we believe that every bride deserves a gown that fits flawlessly. Our Custom Sizing service offers a tailored approach, ensuring precision and comfort while celebrating your unique silhouette.

The Custom Sizing Experience:

  • Instead of selecting a standard size, we take additional measurements for a refined, custom-tailored fit.
  • We are happy to assist with measurements via Zoom and provide additional resources via email, including a detailed YouTube video to guide you through the process.
  • This service is ideal for brides seeking a more exacting silhouette or those requiring adjustments beyond our standard size chart.

To uphold the exceptional craftsmanship that defines Vinka Design, all Custom Sizing orders are subject to availability and approval by our atelier. Each gown is crafted with the utmost attention to detail, ensuring a truly luxurious fit.

Pricing & Considerations:

  • A $300 Custom Sizing Fee applies to most custom-sized gowns.
  • For more intricate designs requiring additional structure, fabric, or detailing, an additional fee may apply. Should this be the case, a tailored quote will be provided before proceeding.

For Our NZ Brides:

While our Custom Sizing service is available worldwide, we invite our local brides to experience the artistry of our bespoke in-house service in New Zealand. If your unique silhouette requires a more tailored approach, our atelier is here to create a gown that is truly one-of-a-kind.

For any inquiries or to discuss your custom sizing needs, please contact our atelier at [email protected]. We would love to assist you in bringing your dream gown to life.
