Custom Lingerie Expectations
Detailed Measurements
The first step is to take accurate measurements of your body. This usually involves measuring around the bust, waist, hips, and other areas relevant to the specific piece of lingerie you want to order. It’s important to get these measurements right, so it may be helpful to get a professional fitting or to ask someone to assist you. When working with us we have a fitting process that can be done virtually, however we still recommend you get assistance if possible. The more detailed your design idea, the more time and measurements we will take to ensure a perfect fit.

You may find that your measurements are nothing like you expected. This is a normal occurrence.
An Assortment of Options
Made-to-measure, or custom, lingerie often offers more options than off-the-rack options, such as customizing the size, fabric, style, and even design. Take the time to explore all the options available to you and choose what best suits your needs, preferences, and budget. If you are designing an individual bra or a 5-piece lingerie set, make sure to secure your design choices during the consultation and pre-production process.
Realistic Time frames
Made-to-measure lingerie typically takes longer to produce than off-the-rack options, as the garment needs to be tailored specifically for you. Be prepared to wait a few weeks or even a month or two for your lingerie to be completed. Be prepared to book in advance if there is a waitlist. We always recommend booking your designer at least 2 months before you expect your garment.
Communication
Good communication with the designer is key to ensuring a successful made-to-measure experience. Be clear about your measurements, preferences, and any specific requests you may have. Our designers will contact you at different stages of the process. This way you can be kept up to date on the progress and make comments along the way. You should also ask about policy and procedure in case your custom lingerie doesn’t fit as expected.

Relax knowing that your undergarments are working for and with you- not against you.
Other Expectations
While made-to-measure lingerie is designed to fit you perfectly, it’s important to have realistic expectations. Remember that even with custom measurements, there’s a chance that the fit may still require some slight adjustments. Be patient and work with our designers to make any necessary alterations. We will do our absolute best to right any possible wrongs and satisfy your needs.
In conclusion, made-to-measure lingerie can be a rewarding experience for women who want a comfortable and confident fit. With accurate measurements, clear communication, and realistic expectations, you can enjoy the perfect lingerie made just for you. If you are looking to get started now, consider booking a consultation or giving us a call.
Until next time.
