Visit our modern boutique just a stone’s throw from Brisbane’s CBD at 1/130 Kingston Road, Underwood QLD 4119. Try on your favourites in a relaxed, welcoming space with expert help every step of the way.

Our wedding dresses range from $1,000 to $4,000, with options to suit a variety of styles and budgets. Formalwear starts at $280 and goes up to $2,000. We offer a curated selection that balances quality, style, and value—so you can find the perfect dress without the stress.

Ready-to-wear gowns are pre-designed and made in standard sizes, available to try on and buy with minimal wait or alterations. They offer a quicker, often more affordable option than custom dresses—perfect for last-minute events or those who want to see the gown before committing.

Made-to-order gowns are created after you place your order, based on your chosen style and size. They often allow small customisations—like sleeves or fabric changes—depending on the designer. While not fully custom, they offer a more personal fit and require a longer lead time than ready-to-wear.

A trunk show is a special event at a bridal boutique where a designer's collection is showcased for a limited period. These events often feature new or unique styles that aren't always available at the boutique. Special discounts are usually offered during trunk shows, making it an excellent opportunity to find your perfect gown.

For upcoming trunk shows, visit our Trunk Show page and book an appointment with the hosting boutique.

No worries! We have a small collection of ready-to-wear gowns and samples available for immediate purchase. Perfect for brides on a tight timeline who still want a beautiful dress without the wait.

We offer the following payment options:

Bank Transfer – A simple and secure way to pay directly from your account.

Lay-by – Start with a 50% deposit, then make monthly repayments. The balance must be fully paid by your dress collection date.

If you have any questions about setting up a lay-by plan, feel free to contact us!

We recommend booking 12 to 9 months before your wedding to ensure the best selection and service.
