Once you've made the decision to compete, it is recommended that you book you book in your couture bikini but certainly at least 16/18 weeks prior. While we can sometimes accommodate a 4-week turnaround for an additional "Rush Fee," couture pieces are intricate and hand-crafted, requiring ample time for design, texture layering, and precision fit.
Creating a Couture bikini is a dedicated creative partnership where your vision meets Anne's technical expertise. Every design is treated as a work of art, ensuring that the personal touch remains at the heart of every design. Bespoke pieces are designed together so it doesn't just sparkle it tells your story and makes you feel like the champion you already are.
Frequently asked questions
When should I begin the design process for my couture suit?
How do I know which top style is right for my body type?
The various styles of bikini tops/pants are explained in detail in the All4me Bling Bible but also during your consultation we can assist you in finding the perfect styling.
When you order an All4me Couture Bikini, we don't leave anything to chance. If you can't make it to our showroom for a personal fitting then we'll post samples to you to try on.
What exactly is included in the "Couture" design process?
Unlike our standard competition bikinis, Couture is a fully bespoke experience. We use premium fabrics and genuine Austrian crystals as our foundation. We then layer texture using specialized beads, high-quality trims, and custom embellishments unique to the All4Me brand. This creates the 3D, high-end "lookbook" effect required for FMG and WBFF stages.
There are a few stages in creating a couture bikini:
1. The initial consultation. This can be in person at our Gold Coast Showroom or it can be via a Facetime Appointment.
2. If you are unable to visit our showroom, we'll arrange for a selection of bikini samples to be posted to you so you can try on - if you want, at this point, we can arrange for a second short Facetime consult to discuss fit.
3. Once the bikini style has been decided your bikini will then go into production in the fabric of your choosing.
4. Then, when base bikini is made, it's time for another fitting - whether it's at our showroom or we post - it's essential we get the fit perfect!
5. Once we are happy with the bikini fit, it then goes into rotation for design. At this point, once bikini is on my design table, I'll be in contact with you, sending you photos/videos of design options. Don't hold back - if you love it, let me. know. If you want changes, now is the time.
6. Design is complete and now the sparkle happens. Crystals are added - lots and lots of crystals!
7. When your creation is complete, it will then be ready for a final fitting. We'll either make an appointment for you at our showroom or we'll post you completed bikini.
8. Next step - stage day!!!
I’m worried about my weight changing before show day—how do you ensure the fit?
This is the most common concern for first-time competitors. We have over 10 years of experience in "fitting for the future". We typically guide you to order your current cup size, as our couture tops feature pockets for removable push-ups and padding to adjust for weight loss leading up to the show.
All our bikinis have adjustable back straps, neck straps. Couture bikini pants are adjustable. Competition bikini pants are also easily adjusted if necessary.
We also offer final adjustments if you are local to our showroom.
