I was merrily working my way through lining this mesh/lace dress when I realised this fabric looks like it traps the sunlight when it catches it 😍

I love my job

I just received the sweetest message and had to share it immediately ❤️

This is the bit people miss, having a wonderful dress at the end is the obvious goal but the journey is just as important. Looking forward to working on the gorgeous gowns for these ladies

Your suit fits, but you want to make your waistcoat feel a big special?
We can replace lining with other fabric to make it more fun and personal, or use sentimental fabrics to allow absent loved ones to attend your special day

There's always at least one more person in a wedding party, so what about them?

We're able to tailor suits and bridesmaids' dresses as well as wedding dresses. We've made ties, changed waistcoat linings and added scarves to existing pieces to bring that cohesive look to any theme

It's super important to make sure you get your dress cleaned as soon as you have space in your brain.

I absolutely trashed my wedding dress and couldn't believe how clean it was when it was delivered back to me.

Excellent service and great prices, I recommend to all of my brides ❤️

LET'S DEBUNK IT ✨

It’s very common to carefully store your dress after the wedding and plan to deal with it later

However, even if it looks clean, there can be invisible marks such as sweat, makeup and residue that settle into the fabric over time!

This can lead to dullness or discolouration if it isn’t treated properly beforehand

Cleaning your dress before storing it helps preserve both the fabric and the detail long-term 🫧

If you’re local to Nottingham and would like some advice or a quote, you’re very welcome to get in touch, I'm always happy to help 🤍

Big meetings, day at the races or a wedding to go to? Whatever the occasion, you'll want to feel your best.

Suits are made to fit most people, so if you want it to feel made for you, bring it so that I can get it there

There's more to a seamstress than first meets the eye. We're here to help you through the process in a structured, professional, and predictable way.

Nearly every bride worries about getting into her dress on the big day, so make sure you either bring someone to your appointment who can help on the day......or invite us along. We're always more than happy to take the pressure off

The weather is starting to get warm enough to wear skirts - finally!!

Old skirts that need some love, new skirts that don't quite fit or a vintage find that you have big plans for. Bring it to me so I can make it exactly what you want
