Amsale Inc. is one of the world’s top luxury bridal houses in the United States, selling fashionable gowns, couture evening wear clothes, wedding dresses, bridesmaid’s dresses, and cocktail dresses.
The company was founded by the fashion designer Amsale Aberra and her husband Neil Brown. Their brand started as a result of Amsale’s failed attempts to find the right dress for her own wedding.
The business that Amsale and her husband started was a originally brick-and-mortar store, but they used an online catalog with no sales functionality to show their dresses to customers. Eventually, they decided to hire a design agency to build an ecommerce website.
The development process lasted for about two months and involved a project manager, QA specialist, and front-end and back-end developers. In the beginning, we communicated with the client through their design agency. But once we had direct contact with our client, our collaboration became much more productive.
Building a website allowed Amsale to create a new ecommerce business. Now they sell their fashionable gowns online, attract more customers, and have increased brand awareness. The online store also made it much more convenient for customers to buy dresses and schedule appointments for fittings. In the first month after launching the new website, Amsale was flooded with over 130 fitting appointments.
