"Once again, the size doesn't fit..."
Standing in the fitting room, staring at my reflection, I've sighed those words countless times. Ready-to-wear dresses rarely fit perfectly, do they? The bust is too tight while the waist is too loose, or the hem is too long and I keep stepping on it...
"Is my body shape really that unusual?" I used to wonder, sometimes losing confidence in myself.
But everything changed when I discovered ARUKA DRESS's custom-made service. That experience completely transformed my perspective.
The Magic of Creating "Your One-of-a-Kind Dress"
A Special Experience That Begins With Measurements
"Please provide your bust, waist, and hip measurements."
When I first heard these words, my heart filled with excitement: "Finally, I've found a dress service that will create something just for my measurements!"
Bust 85cm, Waist 63cm, Hips 88cm
Those are my measurements, and with ready-to-wear dresses, if I choose according to my bust size, the waist becomes baggy. If I choose for the waist, the bust area becomes uncomfortably tight. I had been struggling with this dilemma for years.
But custom-made is different. Skilled artisans create the dress from scratch, using my exact measurements. "A dress made exclusively for me" - what a wonderfully special concept that is!
Perfect Hem Length Considering Your Height and Heel Height
"Please tell us your height and the heel height you plan to wear on the day."
When I received this question, I was genuinely surprised: "You consider even that detail?!" My height is 157cm, and I usually wear 5cm heels. When I shared this information, they carefully explained, "In that case, this hem length would look most beautiful on you."
Previously, at a wedding wearing a ready-to-wear dress, the hem was too long and I nearly tripped on the stairs - what a scary moment that was! But with custom-made dresses, they calculate your height and planned heel height to adjust the hem to the perfect length for both beauty and walkability.
"They pay attention to such fine details..."
That level of care truly touched my heart.
Each Piece Crafted with Artisan's Heartfelt Dedication
The Warmth That Only Handmade Can Convey
I'll never forget my visit to ARUKA DRESS's workshop. Watching the artisans carefully sewing each stitch by hand, I nearly teared up thinking, "They're spending so much time and effort creating my dress."
"I wonder what kind of person this customer is? What occasion will they wear this for?"
Seeing the artisans work while imagining their customers made me realize the special feeling that ready-to-wear dresses simply cannot provide.
Unlike mass-produced dresses made by machines, each piece is crafted with heartfelt dedication. The creator's thoughts and care are truly woven into every dress.
Flexibility to Reflect Customer Wishes to the Maximum
"Could you make the sleeves a bit shorter?" "Can you raise the waist position slightly?" "Would it be possible to make the skirt flare more subtle?"
Even my hesitant requests for detailed adjustments were welcomed warmly by the artisans. The promise to "reflect customer wishes to the maximum extent" was genuinely fulfilled.
With ready-to-wear dresses, you often have to compromise thinking "I guess I'll have to settle for this." But with custom-made, you can achieve your ideal vision perfectly. This difference is truly significant.
The Shock I Felt During the First Fitting
"Is This Really My Dress?"
During the basting stage fitting, the moment I slipped my arms through the sleeves and saw myself in the mirror, I was speechless.
"Wait... is this really me?"
A dress that fit my body lines perfectly. The bust, waist, and hips - it was as if they had intimate knowledge of my body shape, creating such a beautiful silhouette. The hem length was perfect too, and it was incredibly comfortable to walk in.
"I never knew there could be a dress that suits me this well..."
This perfect fit and beauty, something absolutely impossible to experience with ready-to-wear dresses, truly moved me.
Witnessing the Artisan's Spirit in Fine Adjustments
"Let me take in just 0.5cm more here." "If we adjust the sleeve angle slightly, it will look even more beautiful."
The artisan's meticulous attention to detail and technical skill moved me once again. Making millimeter-level adjustments to create an even more perfect dress - I couldn't help but feel the true spirit of professional craftsmanship.
The Day I Received the Finished Masterpiece
Emotions Overwhelming at the Unboxing Moment
The day my completed dress finally arrived. The moment I opened the box and saw the beautifully folded dress, my heart filled with emotion.
"They created such a wonderful dress just for me..."
It was a completely different feeling from purchasing ready-to-wear items - a truly special emotion welled up inside me. This wasn't just a "product," but a "masterpiece" infused with the artisan's thoughts and skills.
Confidence and Joy When Wearing It
When I wore the completed dress to a wedding, I felt a confidence I had never experienced before. Because it fit my body perfectly, both my walking and sitting postures looked beautiful. The hem length was perfect too, so I could confidently navigate stairs.
"Your dress today is absolutely stunning! Where did you get it?"
Many people approached me with compliments, and when I replied, "It was custom-made for me," they responded with amazement: "How wonderful!"
In that moment, I truly thought, "I'm so glad I chose custom-made."
