How does it work?

Step 1 - Order Your Kit

Add your robe and DressBox to your cart. 

Once you checkout we’ll send you the DressBox — a secure, waterproof, lockable container with a prepaid label, so you can send your gown without worry.

Every box includes insurance and tracking, because we understand just how precious your dress is.

Step 2 - Book your consultation

Once your dress arrives at our studio, our expert designers work closely with you to honor its most meaningful features — the lace you loved, the beading that caught the light, the fabric that made you feel beautiful.

Together, we’ll plan how to transform it into the perfect robe or keepsake set.

Step 3 - We get to work

Guided by your vision from our consultation, our team carefully begins the journey of reimagining your cherished dress into a new heirloom for your daughter.

Step 4 - You surprise her

After our talented sewing team works their magic, your one-of-a-kind designs will be ready to unbox!

Orders are typically delivered about 15 weeks after your dress arrives at our studio—though rush processing may be available upon request.

Don’t forget to have your camera ready when you unbox your designs—we promise, it’s a moment you’ll want to remember forever!

Not  ready to commit to a design yet?

Not quite ready to choose a design? No problem. You can start by purchasing our secured DressBox first. Once your gown safely arrives at our studio, we can collaborate and design your new piece together.

The DressBox cost covers shipping, insurance, your Design Consult - and six months of extra fabric safekeeping so you can make more heirlooms over time.
