Ball Gown
The cathedral silhouette.
Fitted bodice, full skirt — the cathedral shape that owns the room and the most rewarding to alter by hand.
Find her by shape, not just by label. A curated designer floor and an in-house workroom — explore by silhouette, then book a private appointment and we'll pull what fits your day, your budget, and your body.

The cathedral silhouette.
Fitted bodice, full skirt — the cathedral shape that owns the room and the most rewarding to alter by hand.

The universal silhouette.
Tapered bodice, clean fall from the waist. Flatters every figure — the quiet favorite brides keep coming back to.

The modernist silhouette.
Body-skimming crepe, satin or silk — for the New York bride who came for restraint, not volume.

The architectural silhouette.
Sculpted to the hip, then released into a sweeping train. The silhouette that lives or dies on the fit — which is the whole point of an atelier.

The garden silhouette.
Soft lace, hand-cut florals, bell sleeves and detachable toppers — the Lillian West world, built for slow light.

The dress that doesn't exist yet.
When nothing on the rack is the one, Maryann designs and sews it from scratch in the back of the atelier.

One floor, every body.
No separate room, no separate experience. Every silhouette is fitted and altered to your body by hand — that's what an in-house atelier is for.

For the family beyond the bride.
Mother-of-the-bride and mother-of-the-groom gowns, plus evening wear for the whole party — fitted with the same care as the bride.

The final hand.
Cathedral and fingertip veils, headpieces, sashes and belts. A gown is finished here by hand — never on the rail.
A curated floor beats a crowded one — and a fitting beats a checkout.
A photograph can't show you how a gown moves on you. Book a private appointment — just you, your people, and Maryann.
