Justin Alexander dress ordering

I had a Justin Alexander and it arrived about a month to six weeks before the wedding. A month is ample time for fittings.

I would say that it's not that the dress takes that long, normally it's that they time it to arrive about a month or two before the wedding. So it wouldn't matter how early you ordered it, it would still arrive around that time.

This is the same with most designers I think.

Thanks Kharv. I think I am just stressing a bit because in my head it I thought it would be here by about Easter time. I guess wont be calm until I have tried it on and know it fits and is here!

I ordered my Justin in Feb and it arrived in October. But of a pain, as now I have to find somewhere to store it until March. A month before the wedding is fine, and you'll need less alterations. My dress has been fitted 2 weeks ago so by Feb it might need doing again and will cost me another £150

I ordered my JA around the middle of July, and it came in at the end of Oct. Im going to pick it up on Saturday. I probably wont start having fittings until Jan/Feb, I'm getting married at the end of March.

It's normally down to how the dress shop likes to operate, rather than the delivery times of the designer.

If your dress shop doesn't have very much storage, they will often choose to wait and order the dress so that it arrives when you actually need to be fitted rather than it arriving early and them having to ask you to store it until it's time for fittings.

I know mine did this. I've just looked at my diary and my first dress fitting was two months before the wedding with my second and final fitting three weeks before. I had to take my dress with me after the final fitting.
