Process

Prologue:

You’ve got a big day coming up. Maybe it’s your wedding, sweet sixteen, or an awards ceremony. In any case, it’s your time to shine. Once the date is set, arrangements made, and you’ve found the perfect dress, it’s time to contact Katie Blauer for a pair of custom shoes that will take your special occasion to new heights of luxury and personalization.

Chapter 1: INFORMATION

Upon receiving an initial deposit, we will send you an information packet with a questionnaire, color guide, and sizing form for you to complete. You’ll be asked about your personal style preferences and details about your upcoming special occasion. The more information you’re able to provide, the more unique inspiration will be able to be incorporated into the design of your custom shoes.

Chapter 2: COLLABORATION

Within one week of receiving your completed info packet, we will then send you an inspiration collage, illustrated concept of your custom shoe design, and pricing quote. This begins the collaboration stage where you are able to provide feedback on the design so that the look is tailored to your ultimate satisfaction. Up to 3 evolutions of design illustrations are included with your initial deposit.

Chapter 3: PRODUCTION

After receiving your approval on the final illustration along with the balance payment, production will commence on your custom Katie Blauer shoes. Every pair is hand crafted in the USA from the finest individually selected materials and ornamentation. You can expect to receive your custom shoes within 4 weeks from your design approval date, elegantly packaged in an archival preservation box.

Epilogue:

The big day is finally here and with your custom Katie Blauer shoes on your feet, your unique and unforgettable story will be complete. Your shoes will preserve as a lasting memento of your special occasion and go on to inspire other women in search of their own one of a kind experience.
