“I went to Aleem after trying on several off the rack dresses that I wanted to fall in love with but it just didn’t seem to feel right, either the fit wasn’t right or the silhouette was not meant for my body type. So I went to him with a vision of what I wanted and he patiently crafted it for me. He answered my million and one questions and made me feel at ease 100% of the time. He is so genuine and down to earth, I would definitely recommend him to any bride to be or even if you’re looking for a custom made dress for a special event. Thanks again Aleem, it was such a pleasure working with you.” Sanchia

FAQ

Couture gown:

A couture gown is a unique piece of art that is designed and constructed especially for you. The design is first developed with you through a process of consultation.  Then patterns and toiles (mock-ups of the gown) are produced for fittings.   Once we have ensured that the design and fit are correct, the gown is made in your selected fabrics.  After the final fitting, the gown is completed with finishing touches and embellishments.

Designing involves having a conversation with you about your inspirations and from there we will develop sketches to help you visualise our ideas.  We will then assist you to select appropriate fabrics, laces and embellishments of the best colour, texture and weave that suit your style.

Custom designing a gown is a lengthy process and you are part of that process at every stage to ensure that we get it right according to your requirements and with the ALEEM YUSUF signature style.

Made-to-order gown:

A made-to-order gown is a piece that you select from our range of gowns.  The selected gown is then made closest to your dress size.  Options may be available to choose different fabrics, colour and embellishments according to your liking but the design is not changed; except for minor adjustments such as length of the train and/or sleeves.

Made-to-order gowns are available for purchase on our e-boutique and from our studio in Collingwood.

We are only able to offer selective sizing options to try-on.  If your gown size is not available, you will still be able to get a feel and sense of what we can create for you by a personalised consultation with the designer and draping the various fabric colours and textures at our studio.

Yes we provide our services to interstate clients and we try to minimize the number of times you need to travel to Melbourne.  We do this by accommodating two appointments for each visit to Melbourne.

Yes in some instances we are able to accomodate urgent orders.  Please note that urgent production and completion will attract additional fees.

Yes we will work with you to design your special gown.  The design development occurs at the consultation appointment.  We will always endeavour to design your dream gown that meets your needs with ALEEM YUSUF signature style - it is a very exciting part of the process.

The price range varies widely and an estimate can only be given after a personal consultation. We recommend booking a complimentary and obligation-free appointment to discuss all the pricing options.

We have a wide range of fabric, lace and embellishment options for you to chose from, to suit you style and budget.

 

Yes we design dresses for bridesmaids, mothers of bride and groom.

These can be created in any colour, lace and embellishments of your choice.  Please contact us for further information.

Aleem Yusuf was an absolute dream to work with for creating my wedding dress! Aleem went above and beyond to create my dress and make me feel like a princess! He put lot of hard work and attention to detail into making my dress and I can not thank him enough! Everything was just perfect!

Aleem created the most beautiful wedding dress I could have ever hoped for. I felt so incredibly beautiful and empowered and loved and special…and everybody at the wedding fell in love with every detail. In particular the way he was able to incorporate the lace from my mum's wedding dress just made the whole thing so much more special to the whole family. There are no words to describe how happy we are or how ridiculously and utterly perfect the day was. We genuinely could not have asked for a better day - thank you so much for the part you have played in this wedding for both my mum and me, we will never forget how amazing you were throughout the whole process - so patient, kind and collaborative.

I cannot describe how much I LOVED working with Aleem for my dream dress. It was such a smooth and easy process, and Aleem made it fun at each step. If I was to re do my wedding I wouldn’t change my dress for anything! Thank you Aleem!

Aleem did my wedding dress and I'm glad I picked him! He made the whole process stress free, he was fast, and the dress was beyond stunning! You can tell that he is highly skilled and his attention to details were phenomenal. Everyone kept complimenting the dress. Thank you Aleem for creating the perfect dress for me. It perfectly hugs my figure and made me feel so good (especially for someone who's on the chubbier side). Thank you thank you thank you!!!

I couldn't dream of a better person to create my wedding dress and will forever be thanking Aleem and singing his praises. I have never felt more confident, beautiful and happier than when my wedding day finally arrived and I got to slip into my wedding dress. It was not just having that perfect dress on the day, that suited me completely, but the whole journey behind the dress that made it so special. Aleem was calm, caring, quick to respond, professional and always made me feel at ease and heard during my fittings and throughout the couture process. I was quickly able to trust Aleem completely and knew that together he would create the wedding dress of my dreams. Thank you Aleem for making this process one that I will cherish and never forget. I feel completely confident and without a doubt would highly recommend you get in contact!
