YOUR CONSULTATION
It starts with a visit to our Dublin studio.
You don’t need to arrive with the perfect dress already imagined.
Your first consultation is about getting to know you — your wedding, your personal style, what you love, what you don’t, and most importantly, how you want to feel when you walk down the aisle.
Bring inspiration if you have it, or simply bring yourself.
Together, we’ll begin shaping your ideas into a design that feels uniquely yours.
CREATING YOUR GOWN
Your ideas, brought to life.
This is where your gown begins to take shape.
Working collaboratively with Ivana, we explore silhouette, fabrics, detailing and the elements that will make your dress personal to you.
Rather than choosing a dress from a rail and adapting yourself to it, your gown is designed around you.
Once design is finalised, your gown begins its life in our designers studio. Every detail is considered as your design moves from a dream to reality.
This is slow, sustainable craftsmanship — created especially for you rather than mass produced.
FITTINGS
Made for your body, not just your measurements.
Your fittings allow us to perfect the gown as it comes to life.
We refine the fit, proportions and finishing details so that your dress doesn't simply look beautiful — it feels beautiful to wear.
We are experts in not only pattern making an design, but fitting and alterations.
Even having our own alteration house, VANA BRIDAL ALTERATIONS
YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT
A lot of brides come to us knowing how they want to feel, but not necessarily what their dream dress looks like.
That’s completely okay.
Our role is to take the ideas, references and little details you love and translate them into one considered design. You’re involved throughout the process, so your gown evolves with you rather than being decided for you.
That’s the beauty of bespoke.
