d d. Mary tries on the completed muslin gown; adjustments are made to ensure the perfect fit. For her first fitting at Amsale, Mary tried on a muslin, a replica of the soon-to-be bespoke dress made in a loosely woven cotton fabric that was tailored to her exact measurements. This step is unique to the bespoke process, in that the wedding gown is truly one of a kind and created to the bride’s precise specifications. During the muslin fitting, Mary and Amsale’s design team discussed any changes that should be made to the dress, whether the waist needed to be lowered or the neckline needed to be adjusted. Once any alternations are made, the patternmaker takes the muslin apart and uses the pattern for the actual dress. When the dress is transferred from muslin to the gown’s fabric, it is fitted even more. 2 The Muslin Fitting 39
