The Grace Melbourne Boutique
The Grace Melbourne Experience
Tucked into Bank Street, our South Melbourne boutique sits in a heritage-style terrace just moments from South Melbourne Market, so appointments often end with a wander through the stalls or a coffee at one of the neighbourhood's favourite cafés. It's a fitting home: warm, established, and full of local character.
Inside, the space reflects the same considered spirit South Melbourne is known for — three storeys of natural light across four private styling suites. You'll spend time one-on-one with your stylist, in a space designed to feel relaxed, intimate, and unhurried.
Our South Melbourne team is warm and experienced, and knows the neighbourhood well — from the market's best stalls to a favourite coffee stop nearby. It's the same spirit Grace Loves Lace was founded on, nearly fifteen years ago: gowns made thoughtfully, for a bride who wants to feel like herself.
Visiting by public transport? The boutique is an easy tram ride away — take the No. 1 from Flinders Street Station or the No. 12 from Southern Cross Station. Driving in? Paid street parking is available nearby (arrive ten minutes early to find a spot), with limited free parking on weekends.
Wedding Dresses in Our Melbourne Boutique
Every gown on our website is available to try on at Grace Loves Lace South Melbourne. From new arrivals to signature bestsellers, our Melbourne boutique holds the full collection.
Explore by occasion - short wedding dresses for an engagement party or elopement, reception dresses for your second look, or browse ready-to-wear styles available to take home sooner. By silhouette, our range spans basque waist, A-line, and drop waist designs, each built around a woman's shape rather than a single bridal mould.
Fabric is where Grace Loves Lace is best known: signature stretch lace that moves with you, alongside structured corset bodices for a more sculpted fit. Every piece is designed and made with the same ethical, sustainable approach the brand was founded on.
Book your appointment to try these styles in person at our South Melbourne boutique.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make an appointment?
You can book an appointment at any of our boutiques here. Please provide your wedding date, dress size, and up to 5 styles you wish to try on at your appointment. The more information you provide us the better!
Are appointments free?
Our appointments are completely free.
How long do appointments go for?
Our bridal appointments run for one hour. This allows you time to comfortably try on up to 5 of your favourite styles plus accessories to complete your look. We ask that you factor in parking and arrive a few minutes early to ensure you get the most of your appointment time.
Why do I need to select gowns to try on before the appointment?
We ask for the styles you wish to try by name so we can ensure that these can be made in time for your wedding date and that we have your style sample in the boutique prepared for your arrival. We don’t carry every sample in every size so we want to be able to best prepare by having similar styles available to try.
How many guests should I bring to my Bridal Appointment?
Saying 'Yes' to the dream gown is a meaningful and personal experience. It's natural to seek support during your appointment. Grace Loves Lace invites you to bring up to 3 guests with you to your appointment. Whether you desire the support of your loved ones or prefer to come by yourself, our bridal stylists will be there to provide feedback and ensure you feel supported in making a decision that feels right for you.
What if I need to cancel my appointment?
After booking your appointment, you’ll receive a confirmation email with the option to reschedule or cancel. We kindly ask for at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to make any changes — we understand that life happens, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you. If you can’t find your confirmation email or need assistance, feel free to contact the boutique directly via phone or email.
Do I need to book an appointment to come in?
Grace Loves Lace operates by appointment only to ensure we have ample time to prepare for your visit. Purchasing your dream gown is quite different from buying an everyday outfit. Given the unique nature of wedding dresses, they often require assistance to try on, and there is a need for various details during the booking process.
What do I need to do to prepare for my appointment and what should I bring?
It is helpful to know your wedding date, dress size and styles you wish to try prior to your appointment so when booking please provide those details if you can. You can also bring any undergarments you wish to wear on your special day. Some of our brides bring stick on bra’s, boob tape, shapewear and heels, to name a few.
What sizes are available to try on?
We take pride in our commitment to sustainability and ethical manufacturing, which means we carry a limited selection of sizes and samples in each of our boutiques. While our boutiques have limited sizes and styles available to try on, we do have a selection of XS to 2XL in a range of styles in all boutiques.
When booking your bridal appointment, providing information about your size allows us to prepare for your visit and, if necessary, arrange to ship the sample if it's not originally available. If we don't have the exact style and size you're looking for, our stylists will do their best to find something similar in the store that aligns with your vision and inspiration.
Given the extensive range of styles, most of our gowns are available in sizes XS- 3XL. However, our Made to Order Customised gowns, along with our Emma gown, are available to purchase in sizes XXS to 5XL (subject to availability).
Is the Grace Loves Lace Melbourne boutique easy to reach by public transport?
Yes — our South Melbourne boutique on Bank Street is easily reached by tram, with the No. 1 tram from Flinders Street Station or the No. 12 tram from Southern Cross Station stopping nearby. It's also a comfortable walk from the CBD if you'd prefer to stroll down before your appointment. If you're driving, paid street parking is available nearby, with limited free parking on weekends.
Are your boutiques transgender friendly?
At Grace Loves Lace, we’re committed to inclusion, diversity and equality and we continually strive to evolve our showroom experience to ensure we’re contributing to a future that includes everyone. Integrity and passion fuel everything we do and creating the most comfortable and inclusive experience for our brides-to-be will always be our priority.
We pride ourselves on genuinely caring about our team members, our customers and our community and offer one-on-one appointments in a private and peaceful setting. We have carefully crafted our showroom experience so that each bride’s appointment is true to our values; sophisticated, authentic, friendly and relaxed.
We’re thrilled to welcome our transgender and non-binary customers into our showrooms, regardless of what stage they are at in their transition. Our friendly and approachable staff will go above and beyond to ensure all brides are made to feel comfortable during their appointment.
In addition to our intimate, face-to-face styling services, we offer virtual appointments if our customers prefer to take their consultation from the comfort of their own home. Our passionate and skilful team of stylists offer a personalised service to support brides-to-be in selecting and styling their wedding outfits, from anywhere around the globe. Whatever style of appointment suits our brides, we offer it.
What happens once I say 'Yes' to the dress?
Congratulations on finding the dream dress! While you may be absolutely in awe of your gown, please note that our boutique samples are for trying on only and are not for sale.
Grace Loves Lace offers different gown offerings based on your wedding time frame- please refer to our Ordering and Timeframes page for more information. When applicable, you will have the opportunity to provide your measurements in our boutique before placing an order with your bridal stylist. We always recommend ordering as soon as you find 'The One' to ensure the selected style and fabric will be available.
Can I take my gown home on the day of my appointment?
Our boutique samples are to try on only and are not for sale. On the day you may purchase your Made to Order or Ready to Wear gown and this will be dispatched from Australia directly to your delivery address.
