The atelier

Dresses cut for you.
Chosen for the day.

At LALEDA we specialise in custom dressmaking for women: day dresses, cocktail pieces, evening gowns and occasion wear, each cut to your measurements and style.

Every dress is drafted, sewn and fitted in our women-only atelier, so the line sits cleanly on your shoulders, waist and hips. Bring a photo, a sketch or an idea of the occasion. We will help you choose the fabric, shape and finish.

The consultation

We start with a consultation to discuss the occasion, silhouette, length and any reference photos you bring.

Measurements

Choosing the cloth
