Comission a Design

by Natasha Polis

Thank you for considering a custom gown from my studio! I specialize in fantasy-inspired, corsets and gowns designed to make you feel like the main character. Every piece is made-to-measure and crafted with care — whether you're preparing for a wedding, a ball, or stepping into your own fairytale. I'm honored to help bring your vision to life.

My commission process is designed to be personal, transparent, and flexible. Please review the details below before inquiring.

🎨 Design Sketches

Want to see your vision on paper before booking? I offer custom design sketches and mood board for $125. You'll receive one initial sketch based on your inspiration, with the option for one revision. If you move forward with a commission valued at $3000 or more, the sketch fee will be deducted from your final total.

(Sketch availability is limited and may be paused during peak seasons.)

Shipping within the continental U.S., Alaska, and Hawaii is included. 🌍 International shipping is not included, and clients are responsible for any customs duties or import taxes. The full paid value will be listed on customs forms.

All packages are shipped via insured, trackable methods, and signature confirmation may be required. I am not responsible for delays, loss, or damage once a package is in transit.

Due to the bespoke nature of my work, returns and exchanges are not accepted. However, I stand behind the quality of every gown. If you have concerns, please reach out — I will do my best to help.

📏 Please double-check your measurements before submission. I cannot guarantee fit if incorrect measurements are provided.

📏 Fittings & Measurements

For the best possible fit, please be prepared for 2–3 virtual or in-person meetings throughout the process. If you're located outside of Southern California and unable to attend in-person fittings, I may ask you to create a taped torso form. This helps ensure your corset is sculpted perfectly to your body.

Instructions will be provided via video or a FaceTime fitting, and you'll need to mail the completed form to my studio.

🪡 Production Timeline

All garments are made-to-order with intricate detail, so production times range from 2 to 6 months, depending on the season and my current bookings. My busiest periods are summer through Halloween, so I recommend reaching out early and requesting a delivery date at least 1–2 weeks before your event to allow time for try-ons and adjustments. I’m currently booked for most of 2025 but all of 2026 is open.

💰 Pricing & Payment

Corseted gowns start at $2000 and may go up to $7500+, depending on structure, embellishment, and design complexity. Corsets range from $300 - $1000+ Please see the Pricing page for more of a breakdown.

Payment Terms:

  • A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your spot and begin production.

  • The remaining 50%, plus shipping, insurance, and any material costs over $250, is due upon completion.

  • Payments are accepted via PayPal (no account needed), credit/debit card, Zelle or Venmo.

Note: Material costs up to $250 are included in your quoted price. If your gown requires premium materials exceeding that, the additional cost will be added to your final invoice.

I am currently booking 6 to 24 months in advance.
