CUSTOM DESIGN FAQ
How far in advance should I expect to purchase my piece?
Please plan for a minimum of six to eight months before your event date to avoid rush fees, as all designs are special-order.
What if my event or wedding is in less than 6 months?
Select Michelle Hébert designs can be purchased five to three months prior to your event, however, a rush fee based on the available time and detail will be incurred for expedited delivery.
Can we arrange a meeting before purchase?
Please use the contact form below, meetings & consultations can be arranged over the computer or phone.
Why are designs not available to purchase in the online shop?
Designs are not available on-site as each piece is custom-made as a special order. It would be difficult to achieve an accurate size, as well as accommodate a client's individual needs.
What is a special order &/or custom design?
All of my designs are special-order, custom-made for you based on the pattern size closest to your measurements and reflecting any changes to the design you have requested.
Price Range for Michelle Hébert Designs?
The average price for a custom hand-made Michelle Hébert Design is $3,500 - $6,000.
Custom designs require a delicate hand and the skill of myself and for some pieces, additional artisans bringing years of specialized training to each creation. Each piece begins as a flat illustration and a roll of fabric, but with hours of care and technique transforms into the design you’ve been dreaming of.
Fine-Art Luxury options start at $6,000 and are made from luxury materials, possessing more detail while also allowing for more customization options.
All prices may vary depending on additional requests & rush delivery.
Do you offer Payment Plans?
Yes. Upon request, Payment plans are available and can be tailored to best suit the client's needs.
When should I schedule my first fitting?
Currently, all pieces are made by provided measurements and shipped to the client 4 weeks prior to their event to allow time for tailoring closer to home.
