Making a Custom Bridal Cape

This stunning bride came to us with some incredible inspiration photos for a custom cape she had fallen in love with- and we couldn’t wait to bring her vision to life! She wanted the cape to have a dramatic flair as well as the softness of a veil. We were able to tie in a lace neckpiece to compliment the lace detailing on her dress. Her black wedding gown was already a showstopper, but the custom cape was truly the cherry on top! We had such a fun time bringing this look to life! 0:00 Intro to the Project 1:07 Draping Muslin to Make a Pattern 2:22 Cutting Out the Pattern in Tulle 2:53 Final Tulle Neck Piece 3:02 Cutting Out Lace 3:15 Draping the Tulle Cape 3:50 Bride’s Consultation 5:26 Lace Placement on Bride 6:18 Cutting Out a New Neck Piece and Adding Lace Appliqué 7:03 Bride’s Second Consultation 7:22 Finished Product Find Us: Website: hemingandfitz.com IG: instagram.com/hemingandfitz Tik Tok: tiktok.com/@hemingandfitz #weddingdress #alterations #bride #bridalfashion #weddinggown #wedding #sewing #seamstress #blackweddingdress #bridalaccessories #custom
