FAQ

Where are Truvelle gowns made?
Each Truvelle gown is made in our Garment Studio in Vancouver, Canada.

How long does it take for a dress to be made?
Our gowns are made-to-order and take between 4–6 months. We recommend purchasing your wedding gown 6–8 months before your wedding date to allow ample time for alterations. 

Are you able to accommodate rush orders?
We can accommodate rush orders up to 1 week. Please check the “Order Time” tab in a gowns’ listing for applicable rush order fees. For orders needed in less than 5 weeks please email us at [email protected].

How can I find out the status of my dress?
If you are working with a boutique, we recommend checking in there as they will have a good idea when to expect your dress shipment. When you order with us online, we will provide an approximate shipment date. Feel free to email us at [email protected] if you have any questions along the way!

Can you create larger sizes?
Our gowns run from size 0-26, with specific measurements found within the “Size & Fit” tab in a gowns’ listing. There is an extra fee for dresses above a size 16 due to the specialist sewing involved, extra material costs, customized patterns, and additional bodice boning to provide support. Have questions? Email us at [email protected].  

How do I know what size I am? 
It’s pretty simple! To determine your correct size in a Truvelle gown, you will need your bust and waist measurement. Your bust measurement can be obtained by wrapping a tape measure around the chest and over the nipples. You waist measurement can be obtained by measuring the smallest part of the torso.
