Mother Of The Bride

Using a flawless woven James Hare silk, this beautiful deep blue dress was created for a classic silhouette with a twist. A simple flattering circle skirt teamed with a cut through asymmetric top completes a glamorous and very sophisticated look.

"Thank you so much for all the time you put into making it perfect. I felt absolutely fantastic on the day and simply adored it. One of the best things was knowing that it was made especially for me and that no-one else would be wearing the same!"

Lauren came to us with her beautiful Grandmothers dress to reconstruct into her own. Beginning its life not even being able to be put on and falling apart,  this was an exciting challenge to remake every part of the dress. With the whole bodice being refitted and the skirt lengthened, recut and repaired … Laurens dress was a journey of love and homage to such an inspirational lady in her life.

"I cannot thank your team enough and am still speechless on how perfect it was. I just know my grandma as well would've loved it."

With 2020 ruining so many lovely brides wedding plans- Kate decided to adapt her dreams for the most stunning, extremely personal wedding in the highlands of Scotland. It was such a please and honour to create Kate's bespoke dress and spend this treasured time with her Mum amidst great uncertainty. A beautifully soft lace top teamed with a heavy layered skirt gave Kate's dress a gorgeous weight and luxurious quality.

From playing dress up in her grandmothers dress when she was a child, Francesca couldn't see herself walking down the aisle in anything else. Completely refitting the dress to Francesca, and redesigning in a beautiful and respectful way, bought her dress to life whilst still admiring its original beauty. 

"I honestly can’t thank you all enough for the work that was put into making my dress perfect. I couldn’t have asked for anything more and never thought you’d be able to make such an old dress exactly as I pictured it in my head - you helped make our day perfect and I’ll be forever grateful. My grandma also loved it."
