Special Occasions

   1920s period, vintage inspired couture dress in hand dyed silk.

Celebrations

Is your special occasion a wedding? Are you a bridesmaid, mother of the bride, groomsman or that all important guest? Will you be going to the ball, whether masked or themed. Have you been invited to a Playford dance?  Perhaps you are celebrating a special birthday or anniversary?

Would you like to treat yourself to something a little bit special?  Get a little bit more pizzazz into an old favourite, or have it made new.

Mother of the Bride or Groom

This is a big day for your child and you want to make them proud and feel comfortable in an outfit that you know suits you and fits you to perfection.  Choose something simple, elegant, classical, modern, with an individual twist or a vintage feel that will both fit in with the wedding couple and can be worn again for all those special occasions in the future.

I make clothes for the individual, they will fit perfectly, they will flatter your shape, and will become a favourite item to be worn again and again. They are a long-term investment, a real alternative to the poor quality disposable clothing available on the high street.

Clothes are made to your needs: your design, fabric choice and measurements. Every item is made and finished to the highest standards and if you need advice on any aspect of the process I am happy and willing to help.
