Atelier Allegra

Commissions

What to expect, and what it costs.

Publishing real ranges up front means our first conversation can be about your dress or costume — not a guessing game about budget. Every commission is quoted individually after a consultation; these are starting points, not final quotes.

Bridal Gown

from $2,400

Fully custom pattern, structured bodice, 3 fittings. Fabric and embellishment cost scales with complexity.

Reception / Occasion Dress

from $950

Simpler construction, still fully custom-fit to your measurements.

Cosplay Costume (full)

from $1,200

Original or reference-matched design, multi-piece builds priced by complexity of armor, layering, and detailing.

Structural Corset

from $650

Steel-boned, custom-pattern corset — bridal or costume use.

Alterations to a Commissioned Piece

from $85

For pieces originally built by the atelier only.

The process

Five steps, start to finish.

  1. Inquiry & Consultation

    Send your event date, reference images or design ideas, and rough budget through the contact form. We'll set up a call or in-studio consultation to talk through fit, fabric, and feasibility.

  2. Design, Quote & Deposit

    You'll receive a sketch, a fabric plan, and a fixed quote. Work begins once a 50% deposit and a signed agreement are in place.

  3. Pattern & Mockup Fitting

    Your pattern is drafted or adapted to your exact measurements and built first in muslin, so any fit changes happen before the real fabric is cut.

  4. Construction & Fittings

    The piece is built in final fabric with 1–2 more fittings scheduled around your timeline, with extra time built in ahead of your event date.

  5. Final Press & Delivery

    Final steam, hand-finishing check, and pickup or delivery in a garment bag — plus care instructions for the specific fabrics used.
