How much does a bespoke wedding dress cost?

Bespoke wedding dresses at Studio Phini start from £3,000. Your final price depends on fabric, construction and embellishment, and is confirmed after your consultation.

Can you use fabric from my mother's wedding dress?

Yes. We can work lace, silk or details from a family dress into a new bespoke gown, or redesign the original dress itself if you'd prefer to keep it whole.

Do I need to come to the studio?

Your consultation and fittings take place at our studio in Canonbury, North London.

Can my wedding dress be a colour other than white?

Yes. Dyeing is done in-house, so your gown can be made in any shade, from soft blush to something bolder.

Bespoke Wedding Dress Design

Studio Phini designs and makes bespoke wedding dresses in our studio in Canonbury, North London. Each gown is drawn, cut and fitted for one bride — or built from fabric that already means something, like your mother's dress. Bespoke commissions start from £3,000, with a minimum lead time of three months.

Made for one person

Not a sample in your size. Not a collection piece with a few changes. A bespoke Phini gown starts with a conversation about you — how you move, what you love wearing, what you'd never wear — and is made to fit only you.

How it works

Consultation. Come to the studio, bring references, a moodboard, fabric or the family dress. We talk silhouette, fabric and budget. We recommend coming after trying on styles that you love at other boutiques so that you’re certain of what style you want to go for.
Design. Your designer develops the design and fabric choices with you.
Fittings. The gown is made to your measurements and refined across fittings until it is right. Every design is unique, with most requiring around three fittings, with a toile created before we begin on your final design.
Finishing. Hand embroidery, beading or colour — dyeing is done by our own team, so a blush, champagne or something bolder is part of the design, not an afterthought.

Bespoke, with history

This is where we differ from a traditional couture house. We spend our days working with dresses that already have a story, so we can bring one into yours: your mother's lace reworked into a bodice, your grandmother's silk lining a veil, an heirloom detail carried into a new silhouette. If you'd rather keep the original dress whole, see heirloom dress redesign.

Price and timing

Bespoke wedding dresses start from £3,000. The final price depends on fabric, construction and embellishment, and is confirmed after your consultation.

The minimum lead time is three months. We recommend starting six to nine months before your wedding so we can secure your dates in the studio.

After the wedding

We're also the studio that can dye your wedding dress or redesign it into something you'll wear again. Your gown doesn't have to go into a box.
