Hollow-to-Hem Measurement

Hollow-to-hem is a specific length measurement used for bridal gowns only. Some designers offer the option to have a gown cut to a particular length for certain bridal gown designs. This is a difficult measurement to take. Fortunately, it is not needed for bridesmaid dresses, and only needed for a few bridal gowns. If the bridal gown you are ordering requires this measurement, we strongly recommend using a professional seamstress experienced with bridal gowns.

The hollow-to-hem measurement is taken from the depression at the base of the neck just above the collarbone to the hem. When taking this measurement, you will need to account for the fullness of an A-line or full-skirt gown by moving the tape forward away from the body, at the hem. The tape should be pulled out according to the fullness of the skirt. You will need to take the measurement with the exact heel height you will be wearing. Standard hollow-to-hem typically is 58 inches although it varies between designers.

1700 inlcl veil and tiara- dress itself was 1100

OKay date twin, this is scary... I paid the same amount as well!

I was hopign to do better, but i just fell in love with the dress... it is SOO me and looks awesome on... unfortunately, when you're 'pleasantly plump' like me, you just can't order those $399 dresses in David's...I looked terrible in the less expensive gowns... it just didnt'' work for the size 14 crowd!
