Bridal and multiple orders will require more time.

Fittings are arranged throughout the creation of your garment, you may only need one fitting, but depending on the complexity of the design, you may need more. Your fittings ensure that you are happy with the way your garment is progressing and gives you the opportunity to 'tweek' some of the details you may have been unsure about at the outset.
