FAQ Response 1: Made-to-Measure Process

Q: How does your made-to-measure process work?
A: Our made-to-measure service ensures your garment fits you perfectly. Here's how it works:
  1. Initial Consultation: We discuss your vision, preferred style, and specific requirements
  2. Professional Measurements: We take detailed measurements (over 20 points for evening gowns)
  3. Design Confirmation: We finalize fabric, color, and design details
  4. Creation Timeline: Most pieces take 6-8 weeks for completion
  5. Final Fitting: We schedule a fitting to ensure perfect fit before delivery
This personalized approach is what sets Adolfo Sanchez apart from ready-to-wear options, ensuring each piece complements your unique silhouette.

FAQ Response 2: Measurement Guidelines

Q: What measurements do you need for a custom piece?
A: For our made-to-measure evening wear, we require comprehensive measurements including:
Essential Measurements:
  • Bust, waist, and hip circumference
  • Shoulder width and arm length
  • Torso length (shoulder to waist)
  • Full length measurements
  • Specific areas like neckline preferences
Additional Details:
  • Your height and preferred heel height for the event
  • Any fit preferences (fitted vs. relaxed in certain areas)
  • Photos in similar silhouettes (helpful but not required)
We provide a detailed measurement guide upon order confirmation, and I'm always available to walk you through the process personally.

FAQ Response 3: Alteration Policy

Q: What if my custom piece needs alterations?
A: Since each Adolfo Sanchez piece is made-to-measure, significant alterations are rarely needed. However, we stand behind our craftsmanship:
Included Adjustments:
  • Minor fit refinements during your final fitting
  • Small adjustments within 2 weeks of delivery
  • Hem adjustments for different heel heights
Timeline Considerations:
  • Final fittings are scheduled 1-2 weeks before your event
  • Minor adjustments typically take 2-3 business days
  • We recommend scheduling your final fitting well in advance of your event
Our goal is ensuring you feel absolutely confident and beautiful in your custom piece.

FAQ Response 4: Size Chart and Ready-to-Wear

Q: Do you have a size chart for your pieces?
A: While we specialize in made-to-measure pieces that don't require traditional sizing, we do have a size chart available on our website for reference pieces and our growing ready-to-wear collection.
