The difference between Ready to Wear and Couture Wedding Dresses


For our Brides-to-be, selecting your Wedding dress is one of the most important decisions you will make for your big day! And for many it is a dream you’ve had since you were a little girl –  that dream is now a reality YAY! As exciting as it is Bride’s can become overwhelmed with finding their perfect dress and you’ll find yourself asking; do I want it made or ready to wear, what silhouette suits me, do I want couture, sleeves or no sleeves… the list goes on!

We have explained the difference between Ready to Wear and Couture Wedding Dresses to make saying yes to your dress easier!

Ready to Wear:

Ready to Wear dresses are available for you both in showroom or be purchased online – allowing you to try on a dress beforehand or order one if you have a short turnaround. Once you’ve found your dream dress, your size is made and ordered in and alternations are made if needed. Ready to wear gowns are perfect to see what style of dress suits your silhouette and style. See below the most common styles and our Wedded World Suppliers who offer these dresses!
