Did the price change randomly since you last viewed this gown? We sell internationally therefore our website will calculate the gst (Goods & Services Tax) based on your location. Different browsers read your location at different times therefore depending on what browser or device you use you may find a slight price discrepancy.

Do not be alarmed, this is purely the GST component and we have not randomly increased the price of the item. All prices will be shown & charged in your local currency e.g. Australian Dollars ($AUD) or New Zealand Dollars ($NZ)

*Please Note: If you are part of a bridal party you may choose to order your gowns together (or within a few days of each other) to ensure the gowns are from the same dye lot. We will not be held responsible if you order the gowns over a drawn out period and they come in with slight colour (dye lot) differences as this will be determined by the roll of fabric used.

SIZING

Selecting the correct size for you can sometimes be the most daunting thing when ordering online which is why we have broken it down for you into 3 easy steps
  1. BUST – Around the fullest part of your bust, across the nipple.
  2. WAIST – Around the smallest part of your waistline.
  3. HIP – Around the fullest part of your bottom.
After watching the video and taking your measurements you are now equipped to select your size and order your gorgeous gown!
Selecting your size – First off, you are not in this alone. Our incredible Online Stylists are trained to help you every step of the way so all you have to do is reach out to them if you are feeling overwhelmed or unsure. Second, it largely depends on the style of gown you are choosing. If you are purchasing a Ball Gown or A Line style your hip measurement will be less important as you have a full skirt than if you were buying a fitted gown where the hip measurement is crucial. Use the size chart attached to each product to guide you. As you’ve seen in the video we recommend selecting a size that caters to your biggest measurement as it is much easier to run a gown in than let one out. However in most cases a gown can be altered down up to 2 sizes and let out up to 1 size.

  • Vegan Friendly
  • Cruelty Free
  • Made in Europe
  • Australian Owned & Operated
  • Made to Order Production
We are an Australian family owned business and we have been in this game for over 35 years! We have been importing and disturbing wedding gowns throughout Australia and New Zealand for over 20 years. We are well aware just how important things like quality fabrics, structure, design and consistency are when dealing with a bride’s Big Day. That is why we only deal with reputable designers and factories for our gowns. All of our dresses are made in Europe and are design trend leaders. We also quality control every gown that comes in before sending it out.

Can I wear a bra?

Most of our gowns come with bra cups already sewn in so it’s unlikely you will require a bra because of the structure and boning used however my fuller busted ladies may require one to help the dress out a little, feel more comfortable and to give you the beautiful bust shape. If you feel like you’d prefer a fuller bust look then we recommend either adhesive bra cups or an extra bra cup sewn into the gown.

What underwear do I wear?

We recommend wearing skin coloured, seamless underwear.

What does it feel like to wear?

Picture yourself on your wedding day stepping to a fully lined gown so no netting is scratching you, as you pull up the gown you are aware of the structured bodice and bust support that is inbuilt into our gowns. As you zip/lace the gown up the boning takes affect and your already perfect waist (no matter what shape or size you are all perfect) is cinched in to give it definition and draw your eye. You feel like a million dollars and can now confidently strut your stuff down the isle.

How long does it take for my dress to be made?​

We recommend ordering your dress as soon as you can, so you have that peace of mind with plenty of time to spare. Our delivery times vary depending on the label. Anastasia Collection:
  • 8-10 weeks Standard production + Shipping from our European factory
  • 6 weeks Rushed production + Shipping from our European factory
ARIA BRIDE – 8-10 weeks production + Shipping from our European Factory Tania Olsen Bridesmaids – 12 weeks production + shipping from the Australian Warehouse Sample Sale – These designer gowns are housed in our Brisbane Warehouse therefore shipping is 7-10 days

Where is my dress made?

All of our dresses are designed and made in our European factory.

Can I alter the design of my dress?

We would love to give every bride what they request in terms of alterations, however each and every one of our gowns undergo intensive design processes to ensure that the fit, feel and balance of each dress is absolutely perfect. Therefore, we do not offer customisations, unless stated.

What if I lose/gain weight?

We know that planning a wedding can be stressful and sometimes that stress presents itself in either losing or gaining of weight. Don’t stress you can take in a gown up to 2 sizes smaller and let it out up to 1 size bigger. If you have put on more weight than 1 size allows you can easily go for a lace up back which the dressmaker can convert over for you.

“I purchased my dress back in July 2019 and was assisted by the lovely Sharon.

"They have a fantastic range and some absolutely stunning dresses for all tastes. Being a girl who never wears dresses, trying to find a wedding dress was something I was dreading. Completely out of my element, I really needed the help and Sandra was so fantastic at every turn, from the dress style, to the fabric and then to my own indecisive self – she was incredible! Could not recommend this business enough!!”
