Custom made to measure

Simple wedding dresses with clean, modern lines

A simple wedding dress lets fabric, fit and silhouette do the work, with little or no lace or beading: think clean crepe columns, satin slip dresses and minimalist separates. Our minimalist chic designs are made to your measurements, so a simple gown still fits like it was made for you, because it was.

From our brides

“Together we designed the boho top piece of my dreams… The second consultation I decided on a dress to match the boho top, and they helped me get that modern/simple look I was looking for.”

Simple Wedding Dresses: frequently asked questions

What is considered a simple wedding dress?

A simple wedding dress has clean lines and minimal embellishment, relying on fabric and fit rather than lace or beading. Popular fabrics are crepe, satin, mikado and silky charmeuse, in column, sheath, fit-and-flare or A-line shapes.

Can I add a little detail to a simple dress?

Yes. Many brides add one statement detail, such as a low back, a slit, removable sleeves, a bow or a matching veil. Your designer can help you keep the look minimal.

Do you offer bridal separates?

Yes. Pieces such as the Milan crop top and Milan skirt can be worn together or mixed with other tops and skirts for a modern two-piece look.

Can I customize a simple 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 simple 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 simple wedding dress?

Our standard turnaround is about 6 months from the date you order, including consultations, design finalization, production edits and shipping.
