Can I wear a bra?
Because of the low-cut nature of this dress it's not possible to wear a bra, however stick-on cups would work here.
What underwear do I wear?
Skin-coloured, seamless underwear is required with these dresses. Ensure it matches your skintone to ensure it is completely invisible. We also recommend purchasing 1-2 sizes larger than your usual size. This helps with invisibility.
What does the dress feel like to touch?
This fabric spoke to us as soon as we laid eyes on it. It's lightweight mix of gold and silver fibres. With a pop of yellow on the underside.
How long does it take for my dress to be made?
We recommend ordering your dress as soon as you can, to avoid any rush order requirements. It takes around 4 weeks to be made to your order and arrive in Australia. If your wedding or event is less than 4 weeks away, you may be able to enquire about a dress in stock or for a fee; a faster production than usual.

How is my dress made?
Your dress will be handmade especially for you in Melbourne to your size choice. Your measurements will determine the sizing and proportions that best suit you. If you are just over a size bracket, we advise going a size up.
Can I alter the design of my dress?
Courte Collection has undergone intensive design processes to ensure the fit, feel and balance of each dress is absolutely perfect. Therefore, customisations are not available for these shorter styles.
What if I lose/gain weight?
Every body is different in proportion and balance, however it is very easy to have the dress altered by a professional seamstress if you would like it to be a little more fitted.
I'm still not sure, can I try it on anywhere?
You can try on the Courte Collection brand via the Carte Blanche Bride showroom or Tania Stokes Design Atelier. This is via appointment only and times are limited, so get in touch to discuss.
