Where each gown is made by hand
Every HH Maison gown is made to order in our atelier — from €2,000, reserved with a 50% deposit and delivered across Europe in 12–16 weeks. Your first fitting, in person or by video, is always complimentary.
We are a bridal art concept boutique, making a small number of made-to-measure gowns each season — cut from Italian silk tulle and French floral lace, and hand-finished with beadwork and three-dimensional appliqué, so that every bride wears something that exists only once.
Four chapters
Discovery
We begin with a conversation — your story, your wedding, the silhouette you dream of.
Design & measurements
We refine the gown to your figure and take precise measurements at your first fitting.
Hand-finishing
Over 12–16 weeks your gown is cut, sewn and embellished by hand in our atelier.
Final fitting
We perfect every line, then press, pack and deliver your one-of-a-kind gown.
Made-to-order, answered
How does the made-to-order process work?
Every HH Maison gown is made to order in four stages: a private consultation to choose your silhouette, a first fitting where we take your measurements, 12–16 weeks of hand cutting and finishing in our atelier, and a final fitting before delivery across Europe. Your order is confirmed with a 50% atelier deposit; the balance is due on completion.
How long does a bespoke bridal gown take?
Allow 12–16 weeks from confirmed measurements to final fitting for a made-to-measure gown. We recommend beginning 6–9 months before your wedding to leave time for fittings; rush timelines can sometimes be accommodated — ask the atelier.
How much does an HH Maison gown cost, and how do I reserve one?
Made-to-order couture bridal gowns begin at €2,000. To reserve a place in the atelier we take a 50% deposit at the time of order, with the balance due once your gown is complete and ready for its final fitting.
Is the first fitting really complimentary, and can it be remote?
Yes — your first fitting is always complimentary, in person at the atelier or by video for brides across Europe. We refine the silhouette, the lace and the fall of the train together until the gown is unmistakably yours.
What sizes do you offer?
Gowns are cut to your measurements rather than off the rack. We work across FR sizes 34–44 as a starting point and then refine the pattern to your figure, so the fit is bespoke regardless of standard size.
What materials are the gowns made from?
Our gowns are crafted from Italian silk tulle and French floral lace, finished by hand with beadwork and three-dimensional appliqué, and fully lined. Each piece is hand-finished in our atelier and specialist-cleaned only.
