Expert Styling Advice
Ordering too close to the wedding date, skipping a trial fitting, and choosing embroidery weight without considering the season are the most common regrets we hear about. See our Price Guide to plan your budget early.
Factor in alteration time, the venue's climate, and how the outfit pairs with your jewellery before finalising a piece. Read our Body Type Guide for fit recommendations.
Store hand-embroidered pieces flat or loosely rolled in breathable muslin, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Full fabric-care notes in our Fabric Guide.
Balance a heavily embroidered piece with minimal jewellery, and let one statement piece — a maang tikka or choker — lead. More in our Styling Guide.
