Basically, BESPOKE, is here to remind you of their endless offering – showing you that you not only have a big bunch of gowns to try on and choose from but the ability to tweak them to your heart’s content. We’re talkin’ mix and match bodices from one design, with skirts from another and sleeves from another, add buttons, lower necklines… the list goes on.
