Photos are coming in fast over last few days. This is Jem who got married in May. This dress fitted well in the bodice we just added extra boning & shortened the hem & bustled the train up. We use ribbons & clips, rings & poppers to give 2 different options to bustle the train one smoother than the other. Plus this was first dress I have used the clips & rings so put ribbons on as a back up plan.
Thank you Jem for sending photos you looked beautiful hope you had amazing wedding day.xx

Yesterday received more beautiful photos from Sophy who we took dress is originally about 2-3 dress sizes. Halfway through the fittings Sophy got the wonderful news she was pregnant but as I was due to go on holiday just before the wedding we had to let dress out some & drop the hem in the front all before I went I caused me few sleepless nights. But from the photos was still a good fit on the day. Hope you had wonderful wedding day & wishing your all the best in married life & for your new arrival.xx

Received some photos from Ursula whilst on my holiday who got married back in May. Whilst the dress wasn’t a bad fit in the bodice. It needed the bust seams altering the length shortening & I believe some of the nets removing.
Thank you for taking time to send photo you looked lovely & hope you had the most amazing wedding day. Ursula kindly sent some before & after photos once dress was pinned at fitting.xx

Cant remember who asked me yesterday (as was very tired) if I would be posting picture of daughters ladies day dress after seeing it on the manakin. Which i didn’t make but she turned up at 11.30pm Wednesday night from Work in Warwick with dress that was way too big. I stayed up till gone 2am to get it done for her for ladies day yesterday in Newmarket. Although I’m biased I think she looked beautiful.🥰.xx

Wow just received the amazing photos from the lovely Cherry.
When this dress came in it was completely different style. Big box pleats in the waist, full skirt, long train, lots of net petticoats & no bow.
Cherry had a vision of what she wanted & it’s always nerve racking changing the style dramatically with limited fabric. Cherry is very petite & the dress before
Overwhelmed her a bit in both size & style.

So we removed all the waist pleats, scaled the skirt panels right down, shortened the length, took in the bodice, removed a big section of the train length to make it a manageable puddle train & used the fabric to make statment bow which was tight to get out of the fabric we had. Always nerve racking cutting up someone’s wedding dress completely to remodel as there no room for error & ordering extra fabric isn’t an option!!.

I think you will agree she looks fab & really pleased with how the dress turned out & photographed.
Thank you Cherry & your mum for trusting the process & taking the time to send me some photos.###x

Some photos received from Danielle, who has been married recently who looks amazing & such a beautiful train on this dress. We had to have a couple of extra fitting to get the bodice fit just right due to the back being cut out a lot.
But she was very patient & trusted the process. Hope you had amazing wedding day & wishing you all the best in your married life.xx
