I create each bespoke wedding dress with the individual bride in mind, taking into account her interests, inspiration, body type and wedding.

I understand that it can be daunting to choose a bespoke design from the start, so I have started a lookbook from styled shoots I have worked on to give my brides ideas and inspiration for our dressmaking process.

meadow

The brief for this gown was bohemian, sleeves, floating fabrics and supportive for a large bust. I created a satin sage underdress that had boned bust support and lace up fastenings and the overlay dress was created from chiffon layers and antique lace details. Light and supportive for walks around the glen.

Pearl

Pearl is inspired by the ethereal sea with a full tulle circle skirt with different shades and gathered at the back. Finished with a top made out of chiffon layers and iridescent beading built upon a illusion tulle base – if you love mermaids this is the one for you. (I have made the skirt sheer for the shoot but as always it can created with a lining)

Skirt is a gather skirt with layers of iridescent voile and ivory tulle with a gathered flounce. Light and airy – this dress is made for twirling.
