Please note that this is a pricing guide and not a quote or estimate. Abby Malloy uses average pricing ranges for heirloom redesigns and projects. It is important to note that your heirloom redesign or project may not be “average”. Pricing ranges to your heirloom redesign or project could be more than listed depending on the level or depth of detail on the gown, the way I may need to sculpt the gown or redesign to perfectly fit the body, the inner construction of the gown, the delicacy of the materials, and many other variables that cannot be predicted until the alterations process has started.
(For price ranges with an asterisk (*) by it, please see the below, more detailed information.)

The robe base will be selected at the first fitting and from there, lace and beading design and detail features from the heirloom gown are chosen and added to the robe. (Trust Abby for creative suggestions and ideas or bring your own vision.)
* Heirloom Gown Standard Alterations: This price range is for the bride whose heirloom gown is pretty close to her size to start, she wants to keep the original design of the full gown, and she needs the standard set of alterations (shoulders or sleeves, bodice side seams, and length/height of the bottom hemline) to make the gown into her perfect ceremony gown, rehearsal, reception, or bridal shower dress.
*Heirloom Gown Resize or Redesign: This price range is for the bride whose heirloom gown is several sizes too small (or big) and a re-sizing is necessary, OR we are doing a partial or full redesign of the gown. This bride has a vision on making her heirloom gown look more like “her” in means of style, gown cut, and detail. This gown can be made into a ceremony gown, rehearsal, reception, or bridal shower dress.
*Heirloom Tops: This price range is for the bride who wants to make the bodice of her heirloom gown into the perfect rehearsal or reception top to wear with a super cute pair of pants or a skirt.
