These names, we have all heard them at least once. We all pretty much know what they mean. But not really. Back to basics.
Also called "large measure", made-to-measure characterizes the creation of a garment from scratch. For a wedding dress , this means that the seamstress or stylist draws a model for you that has never existed before. You have complete freedom to choose whatever comes to mind.
Benefits :
-> You create a unique wedding dress
-> Your model is perfectly adapted to your morphology
-> Your made -to-measure dress is made by hand and is therefore generally of good quality
Disadvantages:
-> A production time that is difficult to compress, generally between 6 and 10 months.
-> A high price
Half-measurement is the mode of manufacture that we offer at LAMUSÉE Paris. You design and customize your dress from a pre-existing model. We deliver a model perfectly adjusted to your morphology, in the fabric of your choice and with all the desired personalized configurations: color, depth of the neckline, length of the sleeves and the skirt...
Benefits :
-> You create a wedding dress to your liking
-> Your dress is perfectly adapted to your morphology
-> A more attractive price than made-to-measure
Disadvantages:
-> You have to start from a pre-existing model
-> There is a production time: at LAMUSÉE Paris, it takes 4 weeks for the Colored Line dresses and between 3 and 6 months for the wedding dresses.
The term " ready-to-wear " includes all mass-produced pieces in standard sizes and colors. These are the clothes sold in stores by most brands.
Benefits :
-> An interesting price
-> Speed: the garment is literally ready to be worn
Disadvantages:
-> Your garment has a predefined cut which does not always fit perfectly.
-> It cannot be customized
-> The part is produced in series and your copy is far from being unique.
