Hermione de Paula uses a bespoke internal sizing system, therefore it is essential that all clients refer to the Hermione de Paula
size chart when selecting their gown. Our sizes do not directly correspond to standard high-street or designer sizing, so when enquiring about pricing and fitting advice, please let us know your closest size after referring to our chart below.
To begin your bridal journey, we invite you to share your vision, along with any reference imagery and your dress size as indicated on our size chart. From there, our team will guide you towards the most suitable creation route, with indicative timelines and next steps.

Notes
If you are uncertain, please enquire for advice by submitting your measurements. If your size spreads over 2-3 sizes, choose the biggest, though you may need to have it altered. We would recommend a custom order. These are not garment measurements.
For made-to-measure or custom orders, please also email us a full-length photo of yourself in fitted gym wear, face not shown. This helps us assess your bust size and body shape accurately before we cut your pattern.
