Custom made to measure

A-line wedding dresses, made to your measurements

An A-line wedding dress is fitted through the bodice and flares gradually from the waist to the hem, tracing the shape of a capital “A”. It is the most common silhouette in our bride gallery. Every Lace & Liberty A-line is made to your measurements, with your choice of neckline, sleeves, lace and fabric, from $1,500.

This is a V-neck A-line wedding gown with 3D floral appliqués.

From our brides

“My designer at Lace & Liberty listened to what I wanted and created a sketch that was exactly the dress I had in mind! There were progress pictures sent to me just to make sure everything was going as planned. The final dress was INCREDIBLE.”

A-Line Wedding Dresses: frequently asked questions

What is an A-line wedding dress?

An A-line wedding dress has a fitted bodice and a skirt that widens gradually from the waist to the hem, like the letter A. It sits between a slim sheath and a full ball gown, and works in soft fabrics like tulle and chiffon or structured ones like satin and mikado.

What is the difference between an A-line and a ball gown wedding dress?

Both have a fitted bodice, but an A-line skirt flares gently and gradually, while a ball gown skirt is much fuller, usually with extra layers of tulle or a structured fabric for volume. See our ball gown wedding dresses.

Can I customize an A-line wedding dress from your collection?

Yes. Every dress is made in your own measurements and proportions. Based on any existing design we can change the neckline shape, choose a different lining color, add removable sleeves and straps, add support, specify the train length and more.

How much does a custom A-line wedding dress cost?

Lace & Liberty custom gowns range from $1,500 to $5,500, and most brides spend $2,000–$3,500. Customizations to an existing collection design start at $250. Get a personalized number with our price estimate.

How long does it take to make a custom A-line wedding dress?

Our standard turnaround is about 6 months from the date you order, including consultations, design finalization, production edits and shipping. Rush options of 18, 12 or 8 weeks ($250, $450 or $600) may be available depending on our production schedule and fabric availability. See timing & rush orders.
